Okay, Okay�we just got back from the WNBA Shock game�and the Shocks won in over time�Whew�what a game. First we were totally winning, then the NY Liberties crept up and eventually had a few more points over us�then we crept up�the game time ended and we were TIED! So�then of course�OVER time�and yes�the Detroit Shock WON! After that excitement and noise, you can bet I�m cheering and energized right now. For today�s challenge�let�s see what you can do with opposites b/c life (and ball games) has it�s ups and downs!

I used an old set, with my new Labels 9 Nesties. A favorite color combo is red/yellow and my least favorite embellishment is stickers. I can�t wait to see what you can do! (Yes, I was able to use this card as yesterday�s WT Revved up for Red challenge�and I posted a lot of hints in the description.)

Dawn, this WAS a challenge for me! It is fun to stretch oneself from time to time! This is the first stamp set I bought...I think from QVC. Wish I had known about SU then! Anyway, here's my card:
Wonderful, but kind of tough challenge! I guess that's why it's a challenge, lol. Hope y'all don't mind that I fudged a little on the oldest stamp set part. It only looks old, or maybe old fashioned. Here's my Rustic Scene. Thanks so much for looking!
Very fun idea! I love reading everyones stories about their cards.
I was thinking at first - oh - least favorite embellishment. That shouldn't be too bad. After all, I don't buy what I don't like. Then someone mentioned stickers and I groaned! Oh man, do I HAVE to use stickers!?!!
I've been thinking about my card and am waiting for when I have a chance to make it.
Thanks for the great challenge. And, everyone, keep creating!

OLDEST stamp set: Do the Hula, Sincere Salutations
NEWEST tool: Movers and Shapers Die
FAVORITE color combo: Real Red & Old Olive
LEAST FAVORITE embellishment: Crystal Effects (I really do love Crystal Effects, but I rarely use it because it takes so long to dry and I am usually too impatient)
