Loonies for Littles Philanthropic Campaign

2008-05-04T09:12:00.000-07:00

THE CHALLENGE:
Stampin' Up! Canada is offering a special to help support Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada. This special is NOT being offered in the United States. You can check out the details below.

In order to make sure that both Americans and Canadians can participate in this week's challenge, I have decided to have it work like this:

The Loonies for Littles Stampin' Kit includes the following:

Exclusive double-mounted Good Together stamp set
One 5" x 5" On Board Art Journal
Two sheets of double-sided Designer Series paper from Boho Blend Simply Scrappin'
Three sheets of self-adhesive die cuts from Boho Blend Simply Scrappin'
Four sheets of 12" x 12" textured card stock
Two Classic Stampin' Spots: 1 Old Olive, 1 Pumpkin Pie
Full-color insert with photos of projects, along with step-by-step instructions
One Craft Keeper

Use at least 2 different items listed in the kit above (other than the last two...obviously) to create a card, scrapbook page or 3D item of your choice. Items such as "four sheets of 12"x12" textured cardstock" can be considered "textured cardstock" for simplicity sake.

For example, I might decide to use an On Board Art Journal and double-sided Designer Series paper from the Boho Blend Simply Scrappin' kit.

Then:

Post it to your blog.
