Mingle Cup Challenge


At this last weekends Michigan Mingle there were three coordinated challenges that you could participate in if you wanted to. The one challenge that I did was the first challenge which was called "hot drinks all around". For the challenge you received a pattern for a cup printed on a sheet of pastel card stock. Other than that you could bring stamps or embellishments that were for a spring theme and something to fill the cup. Well I started working on my cup and had it stamped and put together with several butterflies cut out. Then I went and sat with two of the most talented ladies and friends Kathy and Kim who kept me motivated into the later parts of the night to finish my cup. It was so fun stamping, laughing and spending time with both of you!

Thank you ladies for your help and inspiration!


I'm sure it was because of the talented women I was sitting with and the inspiration that they gave, because at the awards my cup took first place and I won a pack of Gina K Luxury Card Stock, Envelopes, Scor-Tape and Sateen Flowers. I was so surprised because there were so many wonderfully designed cups to be judged.
