We took a bit of a break over the holidays and new year - but we are back and creating and hope you will join us and play along!

Our theme for this challenge is NBUS (never been used stuff).

Don't know about you - but I have LOTS of **ahem** collected and never used stuff in my craft room.

For this challenge I used two new things!! The first one is the design paper from the Going Places collection from Simple Stories, the second one is The Journey stamp and die set from Tim Holtz which I picked up at least a year ago and have never used.

It's hard to see under the burlap background stamp, but I used the globe stamp to create passport stamps in the background, maybe if you close one eye and squint with the other you might be able to see them lol.

SHITE I USED TO MAKE THIS ATC:

• Cardboard ATC base
• Going Places design paper (Simple Stories)
• Bit of Burlap background stamp (Market Street Stamps)

Amazing how many supplies you can use in a 3.5" x 2.5" space huh??

I made a set of these ATCs for the Stamplicity monthly ATC swap for February - the theme is travel - and I am totally wishing for summer and wishing I was on the Canadian east coast...

A Tiny Craft - Challenge #4 - We Remember

Greetings and salutations crafty friends!

Thanks for stopping by to check out the latest challenge from the A TINY CRAFT (ATC) design team.

Our theme this month is "We Remember"  in honour of Remembrance Day and Veterans Day.

That means we want to see something related to Remembrance or Veterans Day, poppies, military theme, lots of red...however you interpret it.

I wanted to make a very distressed, perhaps old looking, perhaps left behind looking poppy. After I  sanded the Core'dinations cardstock (both the poppy and the background piece), I spritzed and crumpled the poppy up a few times to give it a more distressed look, like maybe it had fallen off of someone's coat, or been left at a Cenotaph after a Remembrance Day ceremony.

Shite I used to make this ATC:

• Cardboard ATC base
• Black and red Core'dinations Color Core cardstock (Tim Holtz)
• Sanding block (SU)
• Swiss Dots embossing folder (ProvoCraft)
• Water spritzer (SU)
• Large heart and 3/4" circle punches (SU)
• Button brad
• Big Chat sentiment sticker (Tim Holtz)
• Black Soot distress ink (Tim Holtz)
• Foam dots (Recollections)

We would love for you to join the challenge and play along.
