Firstly make a list of 10-20 crafty items you have in your stash, whether it be brads, ribbons, peel-off's, craft robo, dies, stamps, glittter, buttons, flowers, patterned papers, paint... You get the idea! Give them all a number or print them out a sheet and pop them in a hat all folded up.
Next, ask someone non-crafty to either pick 3-5 of your numbers or pieces of paper from your from your hat.
Finally, make a card using ONLY the items chosen. A card blank, some sort of sticky stuff and your basic craft tools are allowed If you want to make it really challenging, list plenty of items that you haven't used in a while, or thought you may never use again!
Clever eh!!!
J picked out my 4 items, which were;
Paper Pad (I have so many that I haven't even used. This one is Boho Chic by MM)
A template - (by Anna Griffin)
1 embellishment (only 1 ***Gulp***)
Ink
I did cheat a wee bit and used the sewing machine (don't tell Kel ;)), but I'm blaming that on Gillian - cos she has me addicted to the thing ;)
