Stamp A Jack-O-Lantern Challenge--10/18>11/1
Looser:
Once upon a weekend dreary,
While I pondered stamping stuff both strange & cheery...
...I decided to challenge myself & my friends here with a 'fun' project. ::)
Let's begin with a bit of history... Before pumpkins became the go-to material for creating Jack-O-Lanterns (JOL), they were made from large turnips & beets--I'm talking really big ones. Folks hollowed them out & added glowing coals or candles to create lanterns. Some folks carved faces in them & carried them during Fall festivals like Samhain & All Hallow's Eve. Now for our challenge...
You have to create a JOL using stamps. You may use any sort of stamp or stamps you wish--except pumpkin ones . And your JOL must have a face. You may draw that or use stamps for that part of the challenge.
Your JOL may end up looking like a pumpkin long as you don't use a pumpkin stamp. Or you may decide to use fruit/vegetable stamps as your base. Apples, oranges, tomatoes, cabbages, (big) carrots...etc. Get the idea?
This challenge will close at the 'witching hour' of midnight on November 1st.
Looking forward to a Spooktacular patch of projects!

I'm working on my 'pumpkinless' JOL today. Found a great base stamp to get me started--one from Sweet Stamping I got many years ago.
Have to make a few decisions before I do the piece, but what else is new? ;D

Daniel YOU did it now! You now have 2, not 1 but 2 challenges asking for players to use stamps as oddities to the norm! Are you making all of us crazy?? :tickedoff: I was working on your Inktoberfest challenge today combining Halloween and Christmas when all of sudden I found myself working on this one! I now have 2 cards but 1 doesn't have any stamping.
So I now hope Daria can understand that if you can make a pumpkinless Jack-O-Lantern certainly I can enter a stampless card for your challenge which is based on stamping. Afterall their must be some kind of consistency-right?? Certainly I planned something different but I know you will understand that you created this mess. :smitten:

Hope springs eternal, Jan! ;D If I can convert just one 'normal' ::) stamper to embracing crazy, I will have done my duty. 'Course many of my fellow AIs don't have far to go in that regard... :laugh:
BTW? I finished my piece & used just 2 stamps--1 of which was a sentiment! O0
