Creative Challenge

Do you like having a Creative Challenge as a paper crafting stimulus throughout the year? I know I do. I love to have an idea to stretch me and keep me trying new things.

For example, I once followed a 52 week scrapping challenge. I created a journal, a page at a time, in response to a different challenge set each week by the coordinator of that challenge. Here's something I created about my favourite place to find peace. I chose a plain A5 art journal to make this:

That's what gave me the idea to run a PaperCraftCentral Creative Challenge Series.

If you do join in, I would love to see what you make!

Here are the entries for the first Challenge of 2011:

Here are the 'Rules'

Some Sunday nights in 2011 and starting January 17th (Eastern Standard Time in Australia) I will set a challenge for you. You can choose to make a card, a scrapbook page, a journal entry, a 3-d paper item, anything at all as long as it is made of paper and responds to the requirements in some way.

You do not have to publish your creation on PaperCraftCentral, but please post me a note saying that you participated and how you felt about completing it. I would of course love to see your creation, but will respect your privacy, especially if you journal about something private. You alone decide what you will share at all times.

Of course, you can have the benefit of sharing your work with others and inspiring them. I need inspiration too!

When able I'll announce a new paper craft stimulus idea on a page I will set up for this purpose, and you will find the link in this space (you may need to refresh your page to see the new one if you have already loaded this page in your browser for any of the other challenges):

Just put the number of the challenge in the title box below when you post your Creative Challenge entry:

Submit Your Challenge Entry Here

Please do show me your entry for the Challenges, with a picture or two or three, and a few words about how you made your creations.
