New Challenge for June/July - Take It Away - Challenge One

Hi Leo here, happy new kit time!

Here are the details for the first of the new weekly challenges. The new challenge is called:

Take It Away

The new challenges are all about taking away something we use on our paper craft projects to help to give us a push to create in a different way.

How it works:

I'll post up details of each new challenge every week over the next five weeks, (this being challenge number 1). Each new challenge will be posted here on the blog and also in the Facebook Group for you to follow along with.

Complete all the Take It Away weekly challenges to be eligible for an extra goody in your next kit box! The closing date to complete all five of your Take It Away challenge projects will be 21st July 2019. All projects must be new projects made specifically for this challenge. You can use any stash you choose but it's a great opportunity to dig into your kit box and not leave it unused! 

Ready to see the first challenge?

For the first challenge the item to be taken away is..... a paper trimmer and/or knife. The tool you use to cut your straight lines. So that means you can use patterned paper but can only cut free hand with scissors! Maybe a chance to play more with fussy cutting? Maybe you have punches or dies to use? You could skip cutting out altogether and just use embellishments like the die cuts or stickers in your kit. It could be an opportunity to use paint or other media some more to build up a background. 

 If you need more ideas I've dug these up from Pinterest to help to kick start you mojo:

Once you've finished your creation upload it to your platform of choice.

For Instagram tag @craftytemplates and mention it's for the Take It Away #1 Quirky Kit challenge so I can find it.

For Facebook add it to the Quirky Kits Group - they'll be a post for each new challenge there to share it to or else mention it's for the Take It Away challenge #1 when you post it so I can find it.

For blog add a link to your project from your blog in the comments below any of the Take It Away challenge posts, (like this one).

Or if you'd prefer to keep your project private you can email them directly to Leonora@craftytemplates.com

Have fun!
