Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
Evidently I need challenges to motivate myself. In the current Shimelle class, she suggested we write down 20 prompts on strips of paper, put them in a jar, and choose one each day of the class.
I'm going to post one every couple of days or so. I hope you'll join in.
You can either write down your own prompts or use mine.
Day 1 - Use a pristine stamp. If you don't one, please be brave enough to put that in writing! If it's a set of stamps, don't feel you have to use the whole set - unless you want to. Seriously, if you don't have a pristine stamp (as in brand new, never used before), then just use one that has been neglected, or a favorite - the idea is to be creating with your stamps.
Non-scrapbookers should of course, feel free to join in
Don't drag your feet - you never know when I'll post the next one.

Unused stamps? Unused stamps???? Who, me?????
Re: Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
It will take me days to sift through my stamps to find an unused one. Sorry. I can't participate.
Re: Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
And for some people, you have to choose from the first three sets of stamps you pick up because having too many supplies is never a good excuse.

Re: Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
If someone doesn't have a pristine stamp... they can come to my house and borrow one... LOL
It's actually something I find pretty funny... if I'm scrapping with Helen, she won't use one of my stamps if it doesn't look like I've used it before... she always says I should use it first since it's mine... so I usually grab it, ink it, and smoosh it onto paper and then tell her... OK.. you can use it now...

Re: Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
I have a friend. My SU friend. Whose stamps I won't use for fear of messing them up. Her used stamps look like they are brand spanking new.
I'll let Farley tell you how I messed up one of her CTMH stamps.
Back on topic, I have started your challenge, Pam, but as slow as I scrap, I'm sure the next challenge will be posted before I finish.

Re: Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
I know just the stamps to use for this but I'm afraid if I start pulling out stamps, it's going to mean I get into reorganizing them all. There needs to be a lot of purging done-again!
What do you all do with unmounted stamps that you don't want anymore? Do you just toss them? I would have no idea how to make them look presentable/desirable to someone else.

Re: Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
Organizing would be a rules infraction.
My first thought would be to stamp the images onto scraps. Would that be too much like work?
It's after 8 pm and I'm just now home from work. I think I'll go choose a stamp set and then seek out some inspiration. Sounds like a plan, right.

Re: Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
Don't know if I can keep up with all your prompts but I can certainly do this one. Good idea choosing from the first 3 I find or I could be at my desk deciding for a week! This may be a card however rather than a LO. We shall see.
Thank you Pam for this challenge. I was thinking yesterday how quiet it has been here. We need your challenges!

Marianne,
Just toss them in a box and bring them to the beach next spring. We'll find a home for them.

Re: Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
Ok, if I start reorganizing them (which would include stamping new image sheets so I can see what the stamps say), I won't tell you.pamcook wrote:Organizing would be a rules infraction.

Re: Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
Just to prove I'm actually working on this. I know, Pam, you will post Day 2 before I finish this. So you know I'm not fibbing. I used a stamp I had never inked before. I can't believe it. What was I waiting for?????

Re: Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
You of all people never stamped THAT stamp??? I like the looks of it so far. Great colors.

Re: Rapid-fire challenges - Day 1
oooohhhh...Jennifer... I love those colors and what a great stamp!
You will probably beat me. Tonight's water aerobics. I can barely move after water aerobics. Because there's no pain, I never have enough sense to pace myself during the class.
I know which stamp and which photo (5x7). Today I hope to decide on colors and a page design. If I can move tonight, I could at least get started on it. We'll see how it goes.
