The premise is to create a card or something else that uses only items that are in your own stamp room--nothing new is to be purchased. The hostess each month posts their challenge to the group and the card is due to be posted on the 28th. Each person in the group creates their card with their own image, their own papers, their own embellishments with their own supplies--using up items from their own stash! The card can be for any occasion and each person is encouraged to send the card on its way to someone so it can be admired. It is a way for us to step out of the box a bit and create something that follows a challenge--isn't that what a challenge is supposed to be. And--no money is spent as all items are to be already available in each of own stamping spaces.
I posted our September challenge--Make a card with fall themed card and make it a fancy fold.
I went with a newer stamp set that I recently got and the entire set just makes me laugh out loud! I also like to make Z-Fold cards as they highlight the image.
Here is a picture with more of the card open:
Here is the inside of my card:
If you check some of the blogs on my sidebar, you may find others who have posted their cards in the past day or so as the cards are to be posted on the 28th. There may be more posted in the thread on SCS, so you might want to check out the link here. We also have a keyword for the SCS Gallery--it is CYSSEP. You might see many cards there is you do a search.
I hope you enjoyed my card and I know I am excited to check out what my other hoarders, I mean stash reducers have made! Thanks for stopping by today! For October, Suzy is up and we have already posted our theme. Be sure to check back to see what we create on the 28th!

Cute card Barb, although his face isn't very sweet. Is someone trying to steal his nuts!
A wonderful execution of the fold Barb, and a fun image and sentiment
Blessings
