    I am an old follower and yours is one of my favorite challenges .Though many a times I dont get time to participate I always love to pop in and get inspired!
    My fav post from last year is http://unstampabelleschallenges.blogspot.in/2012/02/challenge-8-recycling-bonus-technique.html
    Not only did you feature my project in that post but the DT shared some amazing recycling ideas with paper rolling technique!
    What I would like to see more : you guys are doing just great challenging us to try different techniques and you give such useful tutorial links and tips too..Keep on doing the same!!
    I would have auditioned for DT too but am not doing that as I may not be able to commit to the time frames!
    Cheers from Bangalore, India

  5. There are so many inspiring posts, it was very hard to choose just one... I think my favorite is http://unstampabelleschallenges.blogspot.fi/2011/12/challenge-7-anything-goes-no-stamps.html, it had so many different creations!
    The challenge blog is varied and inspired. I can't think of anything to add to it.

  7. Looking through my previous posts for Unstampables I've only managed to do 4 challenges ,I must try harder over the next year. The shaped cards are my favourite . I love Iris folding and stitching cards which are not very fashionable at the moment.
