May 2012 Creative Crew Challenge

Hi Stampers! 

I am so excited- May is my first month as part of the Splitcoast Stampers SU! Creative Crew Design Team and what an honor!  I will be participating on the Design Team for four months and we are hoping that you will join us this month!  If you have the time to participate, just create a project from one of the challenge categories and upload it to the Splitcoast Gallery- it is that easy and a lot of fun!  When you upload, make sure that you use the keywords that are highlighted in bold so we can all see your projects and comment (SUO- Stampin’ Up! Only and SUM= SU! Mostly)-

May’s Challenge Details-   Retiring In-Style! 

CCREW0512DF, CreativeCrew, SUO or SUM -- DSP/Color Focus: 
A Vintage Career! This is the last month for the 2010-2012 In Colors (Blushing Bride, Poppy Parade, Pear Pizzazz, Peach Parfait, Concord Crush).   Showcase the color you'll miss the most in a project. 

CCREW0512CF, CreativeCrew, SUO or SUM -- Catalog focus: 
Time to Blossom! Think of May flowers. We have lots of flowers in the catalog: stamps, punches, paper flowers, Big Shot dies, buttons, etc.. Use any or all of these in a project.

CCREW0512HF, CreativeCrew, SUO or SUM -- Holiday focus: 
This one's for the girls! Make a free standing pop-up card for a special female in your life (your mom, your sister, an aunt, or a best friend)! The tutorial is here: Splitcoaststampers - Free Standing Pop-Up Card Tutorial by Mary Jo Albright .  Don’t forget- a great project to use the Simply Scored™ board and the new diagonal insert!

CCREW0512SF, CreativeCrew, SUO or SUM -- Scrapbook focus: 
Did you know that May is National Scrapbooking month?  Create a scrapbook page or project that showcases someone you love.

I will post each of my projects in a separate blog entry- I hope you enjoy this challenge and join us!   Have fun and stop by to visit us :-)
