Challenge 12 - Metal heavy or not

It is nice to see that our little challenge is growing, Christmas is past and people are starting to make a wider range of projects our prompts are inspiring more people to join in.   This fortnight it is my, Zoe, turn to host the challenge and I have chosen Metal for our theme.   It can be metal of any kind and represented in any way knifes and forks, medallions or ploughs any thing that represents the theme Metal.  We are a rubber/polymer stamping challenge and ask that all projects include it in some way.

As usual, we have a prize of a $20 gift certificate from Alleystamps

Through out the challenge so far I've been making a pack of cards including a pair each time as the sample.   Thing with playing cards is that they have to be one layer and flat, thank goodness for gilding flakes.

Winners Post - Challenge 9 Flowers

Hay it's Boxing Day, the Big Christmas Day is over!   The gifts are no longer wrapped and piled under the tree, but un-wrapped played with or used and put away.  Oh wait! here is one more, for one lucky person we have a prize, $20, to give away.

Our Flowers challenge like several before did not attract a great deal of interest but it was not ignored and that is good.  We had two fantastic qualifying entries from Greta, I love Greta's style a woman after my own heart.   Here are her fabulous entries, isn't it great to see such diversity from one artist.

Congratulations Greta please send Christi an email StampinDiva at yahoo.com with the challenge you have won so she can forward your info to Janine at Alleystamp.

Our Holidays challenge still has a week run, we are considering both the American sense of the term, and the more British sense of Summer Holidays.    Just check the rules please, if we do not comment on your entry then it probably does not qualify.  We have found that not commenting is the nicest way of  letting you know and as our prize is $20 to spend on crafting products we have to be fair to those who do stick to the rules.   Thank you.

Challenge #10 at Twofers ~ Holiday

Hi all, it's Christi here with the newest challenge at Twofers.  I hope you are all having a wonderful & productive holiday season! I wanted to give you a chance to show off your holiday creations since I know we all work so hard at them; and, not only do you get to show them off, but you just might win our prize, a $20 Gift Certificate to Alleystamps! I shop there often because the prices truly are low, regularly lower than any special you will find.

In case I wasn't clear enough, the 10th Challenge here at Twofers is HOLIDAY.  To get you inspired, each of us on the Design Team have created these designs and we'd appreciate it if you'd stop by our blogs and give us some blog love:

And, in common with most challenges, we can't consider backdated links, only new posts published within the period of our challenge.

Flowers

Good Morning, I am so embarrassed, work has been taking so much of my time recently that I completely forgot to set the new challenge up!!!  So better late than never here is our new challenges Flowers.

With everyone's focus now and Christmas I wanted to give you a theme that could be used for Christmas or if you prefer give you a break from all the seasonal madness.  Flowers seemed an obvious choice.

We are of course offering a prize of $20 from our ever generous sponsor Alleystamp

My sample is once again a pair of playing cards, the pack in growing and becoming both interesting and challenging.  Always both Jane and Christi have provided gorgeous samples to inspire you, here are our Flowers

Onions and Paper (Jane)

Our theme should be the focal point (although you might not have produced your sample with our challenge in mind)
