This week’s Dare is to use these photos as inspiration to manipulate your paper! This could mean cutting, layering, folding, crumpling, puffing… anything! Just remember to Dare yourself… do something you may have never tried before or maybe you have tried it but it’s something fresh and new to you!
Most of these photos were found on Etsy and the links are below where you can find them, if you find that you have fallen in love with any of the items! I am looking forward to seeing your creations and how you all challenge yourselves to be dared! After your creation is complete, please simply leave a link in the comment section of this post! Hope you all have a WONDERFUL week!
MY DARE CREATIONS!
I created a paper rosette by accordion folding a 12×1″ piece of paper, adhering the ends together and pressing down. I then put a nice big glob of glue in the center and placed the circle in the center, holding down until it dried. It was fairly quick and easy and I LOVE the way it looks!
Papers are PaperTrey Ink and I used the color combo from the Raspberry Suite Challenge 14! So gorgeous! I also used the sketch #27 from Card Patterns for this card. Silhouette Stamp *new* from CTMH… coming this September!
This card sketch comes from Unscripted Sketches… I just loved how unique it was for a card sketch, so I had to use it!
I decided to try something new with my stapler… so I plumped up the paper and stapled away to create a fun wave with the papers. It is as unique as the sketch is, so I just love how this card turned out. I also used Black Stickles for the dots around the edge of the scalloped circle.
Hope you all will play along this week, I definitely FEEL challenged but am happy with the outcome!

Love your Unscripted card it is an awesome take on the sketch. i thought they were stitches at first until I saw they were staples. Very original.
