Challenge #19 - Turn a negative into a positive!

Hey Peeps!

Sorry for the delayed setting of this challenge but I hope you can forgive me!!!!

I'll keep it short and sweet for ya; I challenge you to think about turning a negative into a positive. It's an idea that I certainly like to stick to in life in general, but as far as cardmaking/papercrafting is concerned what I'm specifically asking for you to do is use a negative (empty aperture) space in a creative way!

Here's my example:


This card was made for my guy to celebrate our anniversary on October 14th - can't believe I haven't had time to share it with you before now LOL! The 'negative' space here is the die cut heart shape, turned into a positive by filling it with buttons!

Can't wait to see you turn a negative into a positive!

TAG: You're IT! Papertrey Peeps Challenge #16

Tags are the perfect canvas for artistic creations. They can be put on the front of cards, used as bookmarks, or for gifts. I (Rhonda) am currently enamored by tags.


The challenge is make a tag with an emphasis on sentiments.

So pull out your label dies, nesties, or mailing labels and get to work! We would love to have you play along.

My tag base is a shipping label from Staples - 100 tags in a box -  allowing for lots of fun! I lost track of the number of stamp sets used for birthday sentiments. Hawaiian Shores and Summer Sunrise are perfect matches for the Restoration DP from Crate Paper.

I love using dies for tags. PTI's mat stack dies are perfect for a quick tag!


Last project is another card using Spellbinders lg square nesties. I was surprised at the number of autumn sentiments that I had on hand.


We would love for you to play along! ~Rhonda
