Today, I have a serious topic to address…
Yes, today is the start of a new Festive Friday challenge. This time, we’ve picked something that’s not so festive, but is a topic that everyone is talking about – bullying. It seems to us that cardmaking and crafting in general can be an outlet for young people, and a way to connect in a positive way. That’s why our Inspo Board is full of elements that work with Bullying Prevention Day (Oct 7th) and Bullying Prevention Month (October).

Using the Inspo List, grab at least three items and create a project to link to the challenge. As you can see, we added in some themes that reflect Bullying Prevention, but you don’t have to use them if the creative muse doesn’t take you that way. What we would love to see is for you to share your project as a gift to someone who needs to feel the love that only a handmade project can bring. Of course, that’s not required for the challenge, but it would be cool if you did share your craft!

Love your card! Awesome video too!
I love blue and orange together. Really liked the stencil background.
Great color combo and message!
Cool card. I like the colors and how you stenciled the background.
Love the blue and orange together. I have to try the stencils.
I LOVE these cards, Nicole! What a day brightener they will be for whomever receives them. It’s a card like this one that makes me wish I had all the non-SU! goodies to make one! It’s so perfect for this challenge!
Love the positive message you are sending with your post and your projects! The world needs more of that! You cards are so cheery and fun!
I watched the video and was surprised to learn that you used a stencil! I thought it was patterned paper. So awesome, love your card!
Best. Compliment. Ever! Thanks, Sharon!! I have to admit, I haven’t bought patterned paper in over a year!
