Challenge #16 - ABC Last reminder

Hello everyone!

Hope you are all having a great start to your day.  To our Oklahoma "ohana" know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Before I get to sharing today's projects I'd really like to share a reminder about our challenge rules.  We are not an Anything Goes challenge blog, we know that there are some that are out there, but we are not one of those.  We've had several entries that did not follow the rules this time around.  We would hope that if you are planning to join in any challenge that you would check to see if there are rules. Our rules are truly not that hard to follow unless you do not own any images from our list.  A few of those stamp companies do sell digital images that you can use to enter in to our challenges.  (For a full list of the rules please click HERE.)  We appreciate those of you who have submitted your projects but as gorgeous as they are if you have not followed our rules we will need to remove your entry from the list.  You are certainly more than welcome to resubmit another entry as long as it's within the timeframe and again follows our rules.  A huge MAHALO to our fans who do follow the rules.  (High 5!)

Our challenge info/rules are self explanatory but if you have any questions please feel free to email me at fumi(at)yumifumihandmade(dot)com.  Thank you! :)

Whew, now that that's out of the way let's get on to today's shares from myself and the talented Sandie Dunne.  :) 

As you know Challenge #16 is Anything But a Card.  We've gotten some really AWEmazing entries and we hope that they keep coming in. Ya'll are super talented and I'm already making a list of projects for the future so keep them coming! :) I'll start off with my project.  It's another Easel 2-drawer box (can't get enough of these) and I did not use any designer paper! o.O! (lol) 

Leanne used Fumi with Bear Backpack

& Shin-Shin from Sister Stamps  

I know some of you have requested a tutorial, I am in the process of making one (APOLOGIES) but if you can't wait check out Kathy's post.  Mine is slightly different, but the end result is the same. Look for mine soon. 

Sandie's project:
Coming soon!

Carson Rubber Stamp Convention News

Good morning everyone!!

Wasn't March Guest Designer, Thanh's post the other day fun?!  OMG, I was a bit worried about the pictures, but then I said hey, we had soooo much fun why not share it with our fans?!  I'm so glad she did.  That was a really fun night!!  

Wanted to pop in and announce that we are taking a break from retail conventions for a while, but if anything changes you'll be the first to know.  

But here's some good news:   If you happen to be in the LA area and are planning to go to the Carson Rubber Stamp convention this weekend (March 9-10) stop by the Craft-A-Holic booth and say hi to Kathy, formerly from Pixie Boutique.  She will be selling The Greeting Farm stamps and Y&FH stamps!  Also, our friend Jenny, from Sesame Bijoux, will be selling her beautiful handmade jewelry and she's got some items for crafters.
Stop by the booth for a TGF make n' take and while you're there pick up some stamps to fill out your collections.  Besides our online store this is the only other place you'll be able to pick up Y&FH stamps in person.  So stop by and tell Kathy we sent you.  Oh and you might see one of us there.  We'd love for you to come by and say hi!

Oh and I almost forgot to mention...  We heard a certain crafter will be making his appearance at the Stampers Anonymous booth.  His initials are T.H.  YES, I am serious!

Before I sign off I wanted to share the two cards I made (for fun) for the Designed to Color crafty Tic-Tac-Toe challenge.  First up I chose the following 3 squares: purple, ribbon and bling and the image is Fumi with Gift.  All the details can be found on my blog including the Copic colors.


For this next card I chose to use the following 3 squares: ribbon, banner & yellow.  The image is the BFF's made by Sister Stamps.  All details can be found on my blog including the Copic Colors used.

Don't forget about our current challenge.  Click on the sketch on the right hand side bar and link up your card.

Have a terrific weekend!!  Thanks for reading! ♥

Hugs,
Leanne
