Vellum Challenge

Hello Everyone, Kimx here with the latest challenge, but first I would just like to thank you all for entering last time. Don't forget to stop back next Friday to find out the winners.

This is my first time as host here at the Stamp Man, and I have chosen Vellum as my theme.

I would like to see Vellum in any shape or form.

Please tell me how you have used it on your project, just in case I need a bit of help if it is less than obvious, you know just how subtle vellum can be lol.

I love vellum, in fact I thought it might be fun to see if I can add vellum to as many of my projects as possible over the next fortnight, so why not stop by my blog and see what I have come up with.


As usual the top prize is £10 to spend at The Stamp Man.


Of course don't forget all the other lovely people on our team, so now it's over to them.

Vintage Theme Challenge

Hello!

Thank you to everyone who entered our last challenge Colours of Spring/Easter, please call back next Friday as we will be announcing the winners then.

For now it's me, Jill (Mrs Stamp Man) here to host our new fortnightly challenge and this time the theme is Vintage.

I guess I could be called team leader and as such when it's my turn to host I always I like to take the opportunity of thanking our fantastically talented team who come up with amazing and inspiring creations for each challenge. If you visit their blogs you will find out more information about the challenge pieces they have made and I'm sure you'll find much more to inspire you.

I am also truly grateful for all of your support too, if you didn't join in we wouldn't have these challenges. We know that a lot of time and thought goes into each of your entries, you certainly don't give the team an easy job selecting winners, but we love it so keep up the good work!!

As usual there is a top prize of £10 to spend at The Stamp Man.

If you haven't joined our challenges yet, don't be shy, every
one is welcome. The instructions are given above under the header.

Have fun!!
