Your Next Stamp Recipe Challenge!

Happy Thursday, crafty friends! It’s time for a new challenge at Your Next Stamp! This week, it’s a recipe: 3 buttons, 2 ribbons, and 1 designer paper!

Here’s my card, using the “You Make My Heart Soar” set (which also happens to be on sale this week for 40% off):

Other supplies: cardstock (Stampin’ UP), designer paper (Basic Grey – What’s Up), Copic markers (YR04, YR15, R22, R24), ribbon, ink (Brilliance Graphite Black), buttons, brads, card base, ribbon (from stash).

The challenging parts for me were limiting myself to one designer paper and working in a third button, but I managed to get everything on there…whew!

Remember, you still have time to play in our other challenges for August: a sketch challenge, an “anything goes” challenge, a book challenge, and a color challenge!

Don’t forget, we’ve had a few changes to our challenge guidelines, making it easier for everyone to play along and to have the chance to be a YNS Rockin’ Guest Designer!
