Week 6 - Outlines Stamps or Paper Piecing

Happy Thursday everyone! We are finally enjoying some mild weather here in Virginia - such a nice break from the super hot August we usually have! To begin, we'd like to congratulate last weeks winner of the stickles pack, Pammy Jo! Here's the card she entered in last weeks Stickles challenge:



Thanks to everyone who played! Pammy Jo, just email us your mailing information so we can get you your prize!








This week, our hostess Maria Levine challenged the MDC team to use Outline stamps! Outline stamps are designed for specific purposes. Some Outlines stamps are designed to be stamped multiple times and then cut apart and layered with pop dots - sort of a complex system of paper piecing. Others are designed to have special places to add bling or stickles. Of course, everyone might not have an Outlines stamp, and we want everyone to play, so if you don't have an Outlines stamp, you can paper piece a stamped image! We will randomly select one person's card to be displayed at the top of our challenge next week! Check out our design team samples:


Card by Maria Levine - Ria Creations




















Card by Cindy Haffner - Cindy Haffner's Corner




















Card by Lynda Benden - Stamp Act




















Card by Jennifer Meyer - Jennifer's Sweet Designs
























Card by Linda Boucher - MDC Linda's Page




















Card by Tamara McKlveen - MDC Tamara's Page



















This card was made using four different Outlines stamps - check out the open view of the heart stamp below - this stamp is made to fold and close, so that your greeting can be inside!



If you upload your card to splitcoast, use key word MDC so we can see your creations - and don't forget to link to us in a comment here! Thanks for everyone's support - can't wait to see what you come up with this week!











Thanks for stopping by Mothers Daughters Creations!

Thank you so much - I am so excited to win the stickles! I have just started to do some card challenges and it is already helping to inspire me. I can't wait to use my new stickles on some cards!

I'd better get busy on this week's challenge!!

It was so much fun that I just had to make a card for this week's challenge, too. Here it is (the stickles came in handy!) -
