Happy Friday!
It's been quite a week here...
hope yours has been great!
Today I wanted to share a fun new challenge that I thought I'd bring back. Quite a few years ago I held a challenge where I sent out the same materials to several people and they created a card or other project with the materials and shared the image with me. I then shared all of the projects on one post showing what everyone came up with.
Well recently I was able to purchase NOS Rollagraph stamps and there were a few wheels that had several duplicates. I am going to sell some of the dups on my Etsy store but I thought I'd share some with you as well!
NOTE: I have the 7 participants for this round of Take It Challenge! Thanks to all who volunteered, if you haven't already send me your snail mail addy please do so and I'll get your stamps out to you. If you didn't get in this round, no worries...I will have another soon!
So here's what I'm going to do...I'm going to send out the Flagstone Rollagraph stamp out to 7 people. Once rec'd you will create a project incorporating the stamp into your design, send me a photo of the finished design within 2 weeks then I will post all of your creations along with one of my own all together to reveal the results.
So who's up for a challenge? You'll have approx. 2.5 weeks to complete your project (I'll give you the exact date once the stamps have been sent.). You don't have to pay anything, I'm going to cover the cost of the rubber stamp and postage myself. I'll take the first 7 people who are interested. Please either post here or e-mail me at ronijj @ gmail . com (no spaces of course). I will need your snail mail addy as well so I can send out your stamp to you.
If all goes well we will have another Take It Challenge in May and possibly beyond :)

As you will notice in the photo above the stamp has been removed from the wheel. If you prefer to have your stamp sent on the wheel, plmk. IMO it's cheaper to send and easier to store off the wheel. In fact, I have removed all of my rollagraph stamps from the wheels and store them in a single box...
This is one 8.5 x 11 x 2" box! It has approx. 75 stamps so far and can hold loads more.
FAR less room than trying to store all of the stamp wheels.
And here is how I keep track of what I have...they are arranged by theme. I mark the stamp name and number on the back of the rubber and they are stored in sequential order so I can look for my design in the book and locate it quickly and easily in the box. If I have a wheel that doesn't have a number on it I assign one randomly.
