Cards Blog Challenge: March 2013

March 6th, 2013 Hannah Craner

We’re back with the March CARDS Blog Challenge! The lucky winner of this challenge will be receiving an amazing prize package from Market Street Stamps. You won’t want to miss a chance at this prize, so we hope you’ll be participating!

Market Street Stamps specializes in high-quality photopolymer stamps. Other than the excellent quality, one of the most delightful thing you’ll notice about their stamps is that they have a pink/peachy hue to them. I love being able to pick my Market Street Stamps out easily when flipping though my collection! The stamps stamp like a dream, leaving you with a clear, beautiful impression every time. Be sure to check them out!

The winner will receive these fabulous stamp sets:

Home Sweet Home

This month, we’re giving you some extra time to create your beautiful cards! I’m currently enjoying my sweet baby who arrived a few days ago, and will need a little extra time to enjoy looking through your submissions. (I hope this means even more of you will have time to participate!)

Challenge Rules:
1. Leave a comment with a direct link to your card, or submit an image of your card to hannah@northridgepublishing.com by March 29th.
2. Our favorite cards will be featured and the winner of the Market Street Stamp prize pack will be announced on April 2nd.

This month’s challenge is a based on the color scheme above. A medium pink, soft lavender, and light yellow make the perfect color combo for spring and Easter. The inspiring card below is by Angelica Suarez, owner of Market Street Stamps.

We hope you’ll get involved with this fun challenge, and can’t wait to see what you create! Good luck to you all!

I am a crafter. I love creating in all forms: jewelry-making, needlework, book-binding, sewing, etc. However, my passion is paper crafting.

I am the Editor and graphic designer for CARDS magazine. I feel so lucky to work in an industry I love, doing something I am passionate about. When I am not working on the magazine or playing with my three cute kids, you can usually find me with a stamp nearby and paper in hand.

I love the challenge and I love the color of Market Street Stamps, too! Not only is it beautiful to look at, but it’s harder to lose your stamps if you can see them (you’ll know what I mean if you’ve ever dropped or had a clear stamp hitchhike onto something!) The challenge looks like fun! Enjoy the projects and your new bundle of sweetness!

Congratulations on your sweet new wee one — what a joy an infant brings! Keeping my fingers crossed one of my grown children will bless me with my 1st grandchild one day? LOVE the colors for this challenge and have been wanting to ‘branch out’ and try some new ones, so hope I can join in. Never heard of Market Street stamps, so will definitely check them out!
