June 2014 Challenge - Only Men Allowed

Can you believe we are now entering the midway point of the year.  Seems like I was just celebrating a birthday and now its already time to plan vacations and trips to the beach! Perhaps the world is spinning faster..or not..but time sure seems to have picked up the pace. 

At any rate here at Mema's Crafts, a new month means a new challenge and more prizes to be won.  Also happening this month is a bittersweet farewell to Gabbi, who has graduated from early college and is now off to complete her BA and BS with N.C. State University. At 17 years old she will be entering NC State as a Sophmore.  We also say farewell to Joyce, who is taking time from being on design teams to concentrate more on her stacking projects she has laying around.  Good luck to them both.

Now to get this party started let me introduce 

our wonderful sponsors for June's Challenge.

Bugaboo Stamps, one of our frequent and lovely sponsors is once again supporting Mema's Crafts with their generous offering of 7 digi images of choice to one lucky winner of Mema's Crafts June Challenge.

HELP ME WELCOME OUR NEWEST SPONSOR

The Stamping Chef was born in November 2012, Here’s a little bit about Tamara, the artist/creator of all the wonderful images you will find in The Stamping Chef store. Drawing is my passion, and my style is fun, cute and doodlish ~I think =D. I love to see images come to life when they're colored by amazing crafters. Creating digital images can be a tedious process, but I love each and every step of it.

Mema's Challenges Update

Hello Everyone

This is a quick post to let you know that beginning April I will be changing my challenges to post on the first Monday of every month and run until the end of a month with a winner on the 15th and the 30th  of the month (almost every two weeks).

So the earlier you post the more chances you have to win.  A winner will be chosen on the 15th and then again on the 30th of the month.  Hope you will join in the fun and share your talent with us.

Additionally, my challenges will always be "Anything Goes" with an optional twist so if you feel like a twist take the plunge but if you're not up to it then share with us your style...its your choice.   I want my challenges to be a way for you to have fun, win prizes and share your passion for crafting with others that have the same passion.

So look for this change next month, but for now I have a couple of cards to  share with you.

For this card I used Glitz Pretty in Pink paper collection along with the layered sticker that came in the collection.  The flowers and the crystals are Recollection.  I used a piece of ribbon from my stash and a few buttons.  I inked and distressed the edges.

This masculine card was created using  "The Craftsman" a new paper pack from Prima that I just received.  I stamped the sentiment twice and then popped it up using foam dots.  I also added stitching around the outside of the card and cut out a gear from a sheet of the paper.


I think I'll enter this card in:
Penny's Paper Crafting Challenge - Stitching or Faux


Both of these cards were inspired by other designers who are a bit more talented than I am....so big kudos and thanks for keeping me inspired.

Well I hope everyone is having a great weekend and I look forward to seeing your creations.

Take Care Until Next Time

Lesia
