Ready Set Craft: the fourth challenge

by

I cannot believe that I’m about the share the final challenge of this quartet of challenges.

Sadly, I never got around to making a button for the Get Crafty challenge. Perhaps if my partner (and inspiration) in crime Sherry is interested, we can start another round of challenges after giving us a rest (and I’ll get my act together and make a button then). Sherry is in the midst of opening up her own etsy shop to share and sell her work so this might not the best time to start a challenge for this busy lady. If any of you are interested in suggesting challenges, please leave them in the comments and I will definitely get back to you about it.

For this final installment of the Ready Set Craft! - The Get Crafty Challenge, please find below the details you need to get started:

Ready Set Craft! - The Get Crafty Challenge
Challenge #4: Crafter’s Choice

The first three challenges focused on holidays and events that are widely celebrated and all the challenges have been to create a card. This challenge, as you may have guessed from the title, is your choice. Sherry had mentioned creating something that is 8 x 10 size-wise, but use that as a suggestion only (I will be attempting to make something that size myself). You know what? It doesn’t even have to be a paper-type craft! If you feel like presenting a knit product for your final craft, or a collage, or something that you refinished or painted, go for it! As Sherry reminded me, the whole point is to get crafty and you are welcome to do that in whatever way you wish! As usual, you are encouraged to use whatever materials you have on hand to make your creation, but you are also welcome to buy any materials you wish.

Due date: November 5, 2007. Please send a photograph of your creations to jummy.gettingcrafty@gmail.com if you would like it to be featured on this site. Please also post it on your own blog or website if you would like.

On this day, both Sherry and I will reveal our creations on our blogs and also share any of your creations that we have received.
If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments, and I’ll try to address them to the best of my ability.
