Hope you all are having a great Monday! My schedule this week is super crazy, so please bear with me as there might be a few days between posts. I mentioned in my last post that I would be doing a personal "random paper challenge," and in the previous post before that I mentioned the lack of patterned paper in my collection. To solve that problem, I went to Hobby Lobby and bought a 50 sheet paper pack that has completely random 12 in x 12 in scrapbook paper. Every sheet is different and I noticed that some of them are even made by different companies.
I have decided to personally challenge myself and create as many cards as I can that use at least one of the sheets that came in this pack. This way I get my money's worth and also can be really creative, although it could be frustrating at times. I am not giving myself a time limit for this, as I'm sure I will make other cards and crafts in between.
I will start working on my first card as soon as I am done posting this, and hope to have it up within the next couple of days. Wish me luck! :)
