High Hopes Challenge 48 - Let's Go Green

Hello all of you High Hopes fans!! We hope you are having a wonderful weekend so far! Today is our Lead Diva Nikki's birthday today...Happy Birthday, Nikki!! To allow her some time to celebrate her birthday, she is taking the weekend off!

This week's challenge is called "Let's go Green". We are not talking about the color...but instead about recycling. So pull out the packaging from your lastest delivery or tissue paper from a gift, stamp on a piece of a paper grocery bag, how about pulling off those buttons from your kids' clothes that turned "pink" in the wash (yeah, we all have done that at some point), what about the lace on your dauther's dress that she spilled chocolate milk on? Just reuse something!

This week we have Stackable Santa and Small Merry Christmas sentiment for the prize...

Before we get to their projects, here are the details for this week's challenge:

1. Create a card or project that reuses or recycles something.
2. Make sure to include a High Hopes Rubber Stamp as your main image. If you do not use a High Hopes image, you will not be entered into the drawing.
3. Post your card in Mr. Linky to be entered into the drawing for this week's prize.
4. If you upload your card to Splitcoast Stampers, use keyword HHC48.

Before we get to the awesome Diva samples this week, did you know that 3 of the Divas have on-line stores that carry High Hopes Rubber Stamps? They are always listed in the sidebar, but here they are:

Amy Wegener - Stampin' Stuff based out of Australia
Nikki Fairbairn - Bunny Zoe's Crafts based out of the UK
Lacey Stephens - Stamp and Create based out of the US

Now it's time to check out the Diva's creative recycled projects...

Happy Stamping!
