Crafty countdown ....50 something days to go!!!

Hello lovely crafters. I have to apologise, this isn't going to be crafty make posting....however I've a cunning plan :)

I'm going to ask you to participate in a challenge! The rules are, you need to tell me what to use, and I have to come up with a crafty project. I need. For instance , you might want me to use flowers, ink and brads. Or stamps, embossing powder and glitter. Or something random like wool, beads and ribbon. All I ask you to do is pick 3 items, I'll pick at random (not just the easy option), and post something tomorrow. The person I pick will win the finished project, and a little surprise.

The reason I haven't been able to post a crafty make today is, well I did spend the morning cleaning my carpets...but after that a group of us had a surprise party for Andy Love. We've had such a good day, but I'm in no state to be doing stuff with scissors and glitter! It could end up nasty. Instead, I promise to do my challenge tomorrow, and now I'll share some photos of the day :)

    Hello Leone,
    Looks like a great party!
    My suggestion is dies and paint used on MDF! Would like your ideas on using dies not just on paper projects!
    Thank you, Love Myra xx

    Probably a wise decision not to play with scissors after a party ;)

    My three items for your challenge would be
    texture paste
    some kind of natural fibre (hessian, rope, twine, cheesecloth etc)
    stamping

    I am sure you'll have fun with whatever suggestions you chose and look forward to seeing what you make.. I shall be taking notes from the list of suggestions for future inspiration.

    Hi folks, I have used my random number generator, and it's picked No 7 - so that's:
    texture paste
    some kind of natural fibre (hessian, rope, twine, cheesecloth etc)
    stamping
    Better get stuck in :)

    Looks like a great party. Sometimes crafting has to come second; sharp intake of breath!!!! I would say - Manila Tag, Stamping, Grunge paste. (I don't count distress ink/paint/spray because they are a given ;-)

    Nuts n bolts

    Floor polish ( I've forgot name of it, sheens Douglass used it with ink n acetate ).
    In the new year I'm going to set myself weekly challenges n concentrate on my blog but sometimes I feel I'm talking to myself,lol. Nothing new there!
    I'm sure the followers of your blog won't mind if you miss a few posts over the festive season.
