Stepping Out Challenge with Blog Candy Give-away

Cuttlebug card black white stylized flowers
I have been going a little Cuttlebug crazy recently (in case you hadn't noticed!) and I have created a few cards different to my usual tastes. I find it much easier to create projects that are pretty and in colours that I like.

I was inspired to do this when I found some paper and card that has been waiting to be used for some time. Colours I really don't like are yellow, red, brown and black. My stash of these seems to be getting bigger the more I use up other colours. So for my Stepping Out here are a few things I have made in colours or styles unlike my regular tastes.

Cuttlebug Fiskars emboss card fern

Cuttlebug embossing folder swirls sizzix dress die card


Cuttlebug embossed traffic jam folder card

This one is a sneak peak of a bookmark I made for the swap
at the Craft Beautiful Forum. It is mostly yellow. (more pics to come)

Sweet shop bookmark swap

I have really enjoyed doing this one myself and I am really please with the results, so I thought some of you might too.

For my Stepping Out Challenge you need to create a post with something you have made (it can be any type of project) different to what you would normally choose. Only you know what you really like, so choose something totally the opposite. Link to this post and make a comment here with your link for everyone to find. I will arrange for a small blog candy prize for the winner so make sure I am able to contact you. I will announce the winner on the 15th May 08 so that you have plenty of time to get creating. If you subscribe to my blog (see orange button above) you can see when I have posted updates.

By the way I have made a new copyright logo for my photos. What do you think? I have seen some lovely ones around and thought it was about time I created something a little more stylish.
