We're making some changes to the Challenge Blog and wanted to update you so you know when and where to find all of your favorite challenges throughout the month! :)
Starting this month, all of our monthly challenge posts will be hosted on our main blog and will no longer be here on the Challenge Blog. These challenges include the following:
Wednesday Sketch Challenge
Color Challenge
The Birthday Project Challenge
All of the challenges will remain the same - they will just have a new home and a new start time of 12pm EDT.
While we will no longer be doing a weekly Spotted post, we're always so thrilled to see what our customers and followers are creating and will still be highlighting projects that catch our eye on social media. Share your cards on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook using the hashtag #mftstamps.
Thank you so much for spending time with us here on the Challenge blog - we appreciate you and all of the projects you've shared.
See you tomorrow, April 3, at 12pm EDT on the main blog for Sketch Challenge 431!

The Birthday Project Challenge - ROYGBIV

Despite different backgrounds, beliefs, and traditions, one thing we share that unites us and is worth celebrating is the birthday of friends and family. Recognizing the special day of someone you love with a handcrafted card straight from the heart is always a good idea and if stocking your stash with unique birthday designs is on the agenda, have we got the perfect challenge for you!
Our monthly Birthday Project challenge features ideas for getting creative with your birthday card making. Our team is excited to share their ideas, and we’re ALL excited to see how the challenges inspire you!
Rainbows are always the right choice — especially for celebratory occasions like birthdays! While we offer a number of options in our selection of stamps and Die-namics that are a literal representation of this iconic imagery, incorporating that cheery color combo can be done in an endless variety of ways. Get creative this month and share your rainbow-inspired birthday cards with us!
MFT products are encouraged, but not required - just make sure to add rainbow colors to your birthday project to be eligible! You can enter your cards for this week's challenge in the Inlinkz Link Up at the bottom of this post.
Vika added a die cut rainbow to her card and used watercolor to add in all of the rainbow colors. The clouds on each end really help the vibrant colors stand out on her scene.

The Birthday Project Challenge - You're How Old?

Despite different backgrounds, beliefs, and traditions, one thing we share that unites us and is worth celebrating is the birthday of friends and family. Recognizing the special day of someone you love with a handcrafted card straight from the heart is always a good idea and if stocking your stash with unique birthday designs is on the agenda, have we got the perfect challenge for you!

Sometimes using a numerical representation of the birthday boy or girl’s age is to share in their excitement (four-year-olds LOVE being four!) and sometimes, it’s maybe to rub it in a bit…in a loving way, of course. This month, we're challenging you to come up with interesting ways to feature numbers in your designs — whether recognizing the milestone of a newly-christened teenager, the celebration of hitting the half-century mark, or anything in between (or beyond!) we want to see numbers in play.
MFT products are encouraged, but not required - just make sure to add a number to your birthday project to be eligible! You can enter your cards for this week's challenge in the Inlinkz Link Up at the bottom of this post.
Francine created a colorful birthday design with a bold, muli-color striped background and her sentiment stamped on either side. She added a stamped giraffe as her focal image and perched the die cut number 8 on his back to personalize it with the recipient's age.

At first glance it might appear as though Inge forgot to include a present on her design, but if you look a little closer, you'll see the sweet surprise the hippo has hiding behind his back.
