OK, so after I posted earlier about using any cardboard, I had to run out to the street before the recycling man came and retrieve a shoe box!!
Kittys foam snowman was so inspiring, that THIS snowman is for KITTY!!!

Bummer.... I just got home from my LSS, didn't get any chipboard while I was there. Oh, well, can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with. Maybe it'll give me the inspiration I need to get over my chipboard anxiety.

No chipboard here so it took a bit to figure out what to do. I traced a mug template onto corrugated cardboard and here it is . . .

Thank you.

Here's mine. The little hanging tag is mounted on chipboard. I wish the flash hadn't washed this card out. I like it better in person because you can see the faux stitching on the side. Oh well. I need to get my scanner fixed!

I've been calling mine the "poor woman's chipboard" because it saves me from having to go out and buy some when I am out of it.
Here's a holiday journal/organizer book I did a couple weeks ago using my poor woman's chipboard for the "J" in journal.
J is for Justine's Journal

Since I've been visiting my folks (and stampin' up a storm with my mom) I've accumulated a TON of patterned paper that I've been dying to use (along with some of her chipboard!), so this challenge was perfect!
Thanks, Julia!

Along with my new chipboard, I got some new rubber that was just screaming to be used. So of course, I gave in! Here's my paisley card,

Thanks for another great challenge! I love chipboard, and find the more I practice with it the more I like it! Here's a 12 x 12 page I did with a chipboard accent.
