WOW! KS Crew Challenge #13 & POM!

Our hostess for today’s KS Crew Challenge#13, is one of our new KS Crew members, Connie. Connie is asking us sharpen up on our cutting skills!!

Connie’s Challenge is: Running with Scissors!
… “Didn’t your mom ever tell you NOT to run with scissors ? Well for this challenge I am saying it is okay!! Okay….maybe not to actually physically run with scissors, instead let’s let our scissors do some running! This week’s challenge is to have at least one cut image on your card…it does not have to be the focal point image, and you can cut one thing or many….that is up to you…but make sure and let your scissors do some running.” - Connie

PLUS, the Kitchen has an extra serving of FUN!!! KS Crew Member, Angela, got so inspired by Connie’s challenge … she took her scissors out for a marathon run … which turned into a surprise Project of the Month – for May! YaHoo!!!!

So, pick up your scissors and join us and play along with Connie’s challenge … again, you will be playing for a chance for one of 3 prizes. 1st prize winner is $50 worth of Kitchen Sink Stamps. You can’t win if you don’t play.

Here is my sample… a tri-fold graduation card.

For inspiration to get you and your scissors snipping, see what Connie and the rest of the KS Crew has carved out for you:

Angela - May POM • Connie - KS Crew Hostess
Julie • Lisa • Lori • Lynn • Makiko • Tammy

Dee will not be able to play along with us for the few weeks. We all look forward to her return to the Kitchen very soon!

Thank you Connie, for the totally sharp challenge! I had a ball trimming away!
… oh, goodness, I am such a cut-up today! LOL!

and … Thank you Angela, for the fabulous Project!

Please note: There is a small change to the KS Crew Challenge Rules. Starting with today’s challenge, you will now have 3 weeks to play. (Whew! ) You can now expect to find a NEW KS Crew Challenge starting the 1st Monday of the month, with 3 weeks to play … as many entries as you like.
