LOL! :) <br />Color Challenges are my favorite! Helps me to use different colors together. The hardest ones for me are the different shapes of cards. But I am always up for a challenge and I love hopping around to see what all the other great talent out there is up to! :)<br /><br />Thanks for the chance to win! CaardVarks is a great place for inspiration!!! :)<br />Stamping Hugs!Kimberly's Kraftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06050726794058501884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236003707769495273.post-70529741747727794072009-05-02T18:27:00.000-04:002009-05-02T18:27:00.000-04:00The most difficult challenge I entered was to make...The most difficult challenge I entered was to make a card in a non card shape. It was also my least favourite challenge at the time. But when I look back it really made me craft outside my comfort zone and try something new. I've come to realize that I do like challenges that make me go outside my comfort zone, I discover so many new things that way.Susan McRaenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236003707769495273.post-66946196885329094252009-05-02T16:54:00.000-04:002009-05-02T16:54:00.000-04:00I always TRY to play in the 'Vaark's chall...I always TRY to play in the 'Vaark's challenges!<br /><br />I love their challenges becuz they're always unique ... and very creative.

I love them- my favorites are the sketch or theme ones. Not so crazy about the color ones. The thing I dislike about some challenges is they do not give enough time to do them! I love the time period caardvarks gives! I only wish they would issue their challenges on a set day of the week and have it due on a set day of the week. That is easier for me to keep track of rather than a date (my own personal preference, 2 cents please!). I hope to get back on the challenge wagon soon! Too busy cleaning and preparing for the boys to come home from college- moving back with all that stuff!!! Oh yeah, and graduation and party (gotta clean the house you know....)

What rally bugs me is when part of the rules is to use a particular brand , for example you have to use this companies stamp. THings like that bug me because if I don't have anything from that company I feel left out and I don't want to go out an buy stuff just for that challenge.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236003707769495273.post-6921850619868704992009-05-01T21:53:00.000-04:002009-05-01T21:53:00.000-04:00Hey girl, what a funny, funny post.

As far as challenges go, I do enjoy sketch challenges...but here's what I don't enjoy about challenges. When you take the time to post to some one's particular challenge; would it kill that person to leave a tiny little comment on your blog? That really bugs me.Carol Weimerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14374896034377810322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236003707769495273.post-91389526865889030562009-05-01T15:27:00.000-04:002009-05-01T15:27:00.000-04:00The one and only challenge I have entered so far w...The one and only challenge I have entered so far was Elise Blaha's Crafty Olympics. It was difficult deciding what was expected from each prompt, but I enjoyed the challenge. I would enjoy a challenge centered around a specific object. For example, restaurant matchbooks; you use a real matchbook in your layout as the focal point.Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01010518071146132978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236003707769495273.post-52159858400455483662009-05-01T15:06:00.000-04:002009-05-01T15:06:00.000-04:00Wow so happy I found your blog!

Great.....honestly, I love old stash, work with it all the time, and eventhough I get pretty bored with it every now and then, I use it still and have lots of fun with it!<br />Challenges.... oh gosh, I love them, used to do AAE but they stopped unfortunately, Say it in Scrap is good too (although I haven't participated in a long time), love my "own" challengeblog with 8 other friends a lot, but I think the best one so far was Emily Falconbridge's Art Journal Challenge 2007! 52 Weeks of pure fun! <br />Wow, long answer, but, you've asked for it!!Marjoleinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01738897561774987510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236003707769495273.post-38187376578906283832009-05-01T07:53:00.000-04:002009-05-01T07:53:00.000-04:00You had me at "rub-ons".

I was so inspired and motivated to make my best possible card each of the 10 days. And I made some really wonderful blog friends from participating...how great is that?<br />I'm not good of thinking up challenges, but I would love to see a challenge "design your card around the ribbon" (I am sure YOU could come up with a better title!) You see, I have so many virginal spools of ribbon I just had to have, and I can't seem to make them work with ANYTHING. So what if I plan a card around the ribbon? THAT is a real challenge...at least for me :)June Houckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01592512706384725633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236003707769495273.post-81807930157713351332009-05-01T07:24:00.000-04:002009-05-01T07:24:00.000-04:00Do NOT pick me, as I DO NOT NEED MORE STUFF (#1 ne...Do NOT pick me, as I DO NOT NEED MORE STUFF (#1 never wins, anyway), but I have to tell you it gladdens my heart that other people have giveaways from their own stash. ;-) Oh, look, I failed to mention anything about challenges, so I guess I am disqualified, anyway.
