Challenge #307 - Hasty Hobbies
For this challenge we are doing a Speed Stamping Challenge and the theme for the challenge, created by yours truly, is Hobbies! So you are making a card depicting pastimes, maybe your own, maybe your family's, perhaps something other than the obvious one of papercrafting. To get your adrenaline pumping, create a card or other project, in under 10 minutes, that illustrates the theme of hobbies! Please let us know how long it took you to make it in your description.
When we do a speed challenge we are not expecting a detailed masterpiece from you. We want you to have fun and see what you can create in under 10 minutes! You can design it in your head or sketch it out first. You can gather all your supplies ahead of time. But once you start the cutting/stamping/die cutting/embossing /etc. process, you must start the timer!
Heather Cooper 10m0s
Heather Heroldt 5m15s
Jan Clothier 7m46s
Here are some guidelines for the challenge:
- Create any card, scrapbooking page, 3D project or packaging project that fits the challenge.
- You can come up with your design and gather materials before you start the clock, but once you start work, you have to complete your design in 10 min. State in your blog or description, how long it took you to make it.
- Use the given theme in your project.
- Please include the challenge graphic and link back to the challenge in your blog post. Turn off word verification so we can send you lots of feedback. Make sure you link the post not the whole blog to the Linky. Use #AYSI307 when uploading to a public gallery.
- If you’re unsure about ‘the rules’, check the details under the Challenge Guidelines.
- You can combine our challenge with up to 3 other compatible challenges.
- We do reserve the right to delete, or not consider, entries that do not comply with these guidelines.

Winners for Challenge #306 - At the Beach
At the beach is one of my favourite places to be and it feels like that is a common experience for many of you, if your creations are any indication! It was so hard to choose between all those creative expressions, but here are the winners for As You See It Challenge #306:
Our Top Pick is: Suzy Hinton

Suzy's serene beach scene has several layers with unique features that caught the eye of the Design Team. First, the kraft layer underneath has been stamped with shells on one end to add texture and interest, contributed by the linen thread bow. Then there is the water coloured background on the image panel, which is enhanced with sand speckles and grass, as well as a great sentiment. Finally, Suzy added perfectly scaled shells popped up on dimensionals to complete the scene. Well done, Suzy!
Our Featured Artist is: Vicky Hayes
Vicky has also used a water coloured background for her beach scene, but if you look closely, she has added acrylic paint in white and Wink of Stella to create the foam on the waves. The Design Team loved the soft colours and the use of coloured pencils on the shells and gull. Die cutting the scene with a label die and adding to the background really enhanced the professional look of the card and creating the 3D affect with the gull and the shells was great for depth and texture. Congratulations on being our Featured Artist this week, Vicky!
And we think you may want to check out the following Honorable Mentions on their sites:
6. Emma T.
Congratulations to our winners and thanks to everyone who played along! Come and check out our new Speed Stamping Challenge tomorrow morning on our blog! Our winners today can pick up their badges on this page and display them with pride on their blogs or sites.
