Something New ~ CHALLENGE~

Happy New Year Everyone!!!

I hope everyone had wonderful, fun, and safe holidays. Now that they are over and things are starting to get back to normal, it's time for a new year of Stamp Something Challenges!! Woo Hoo!! We're looking forward to new and exciting challenges and hope you can join us each week. :)

This week's challenge is something easy to get you back into the swing of stamping and crafting. For this week, we'd like you to create something NEW!! It can be made with new products(maybe some goodies you received under the tree!!), it can be using a new technique, or something for a new occasion (baby, house, job......).

The winner of this week's challenge will join the Stamp Something Design Team as a guest Designer for 2 weeks of challenges. All you need to do is create a project with this theme of Something New, then leave a comment on THIS POST by 7pm ET, Thursday, January 8, 2009!!!!!! We will announce the winner on the 9th and they will be creating with us on the 16th and 23rd.

Keep scrolling to see some NEW creations from the DT!!

Happy Stamping!!!!

What a great challenge! I didn't really get any new fun stuff for Christmas, BUT I have a bunch of stamp sets that I've never used (perish the thought!!) sitting on my shelf! So here is my challenge entry:
