Hi there, Valerie here with a fun and quick challenge.
3" x 3" cards are an easy way to jump start creativity or to make in a pinch when time is tight. Plus, they are the perfect size to slip into a small gift or as a surprise in a lunchbox or briefcase.
Today's challenge is to make Three 3" x 3" cards using the same supplies; stamps, papers, inks and embellishments. Change them up so they aren't exactly the same.
Bonus points if you can get them done in 30 minutes!
Be sure to have your project uploaded to the gallery using the tag STV13MON6 no later than next Sunday, February 17th at 8pm Central. I hope you can find time to play with us this week … I am looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

I was so inspired by your lovely trio of little works of art, that I knew it was something I wanted to do too. I had never done this before and I was thrilled with the outcome. Thanks for the great challenge and here is my Three Times the Fun entry. I might have to do this again, but I think tomorrow will be spent getting dug out from all the snow accumulating.
