Join Me For Christy’s Craft Challenge

March 9, 2009 by robyn charles

A few short weeks ago, I introduced you to Christy and her fabulous monthly craft challenges! I’m not able to participate in the March challenge due to planning and executing my wedding, but I’m super pumped to get in on the action for April. And I’m challenging you all to join me!

For just $5 (which includes shipping and handling!) you’ll be able to participate in the fun of recyled crafting without having to first overload your crafting space with craft stuff you never use, ignore it for six months, and then decide you need to maybe make stuff with all those craft supplies! Plus, you get to participate in the contest over at the Flickr group!

While April’s theme is strictly under wraps until everyone has signed up, I’m pretty sure it’ll be super fun and amazing, and will stretch my creative brain, helping me get ready for all the spring and summer crafting on my list.

Will you join in on the fun?!
