New Challenge time - Stamp your own Background

Before we get to the new challenge, I want to introduce our sponsor for this upcoming challenge week - Ruth Nava. Ruth has a couple of fun goodies for one lucky participant this week - here's some pictures:


Thank you Ruth! Please take a minute to stop by Ruth's blog and see what she has created along with us for this week's challenge and leave her a little lovin' for sponsoring our prize this week!

We are also welcoming Deneen to the team this week as May's Guest DT member! Deneen has been wowing us with her artwork and now she's going to add a couple of samples for this week's challenge which is to Stamp Your Own Background! Let's see what she and the rest of the team created to inspire you!



Both of these gorgeous samples are from Deneen - awesome!















So many fun and different looks and that's the beauty of creating your own look with a stamped background! To check all of this artwork further, be sure to visit each team member's blog.

Now it's your turn. Grab your CTMH stamps and create a background for your project. Post it to your blog or other online gallery (use keyword H2H8) and then come back here and leave a direct link to your post. You might win Ruth's great prize package and you might just be in the next Friday Five! Happy Stamping!

  2. Yay me! I actually got mine done before Friday for a change! (Yes it's a holiday Monday here in Canada...but it's raining and my favorite place to be on a rainy day is in my craft room!) I love this challenge, if I get rolling, I may even do 2 this week!

  9. This challenge is one of the most versital and useful concepts that I use on a regular basis. If you don't have the right background paper you can just make your own. Thanks for giving us this opportunity to share with each other. It was super fun!

  11. I've always thought that stamping my own background was a good idea in theory, but it was nice to have the opportunity to try it out. I kept this pretty simple, so I'm not sure it will be able to compete with the great submissions by the other talented ladies, but it was fun to try!!! Thanks!

  15. My link didn't work above, that's not the layout I wanted to show (Terd Teen Attitude), so i don't know what I'm doing wrong.
