Welcome back to CAS-ual Fridays, The Clean And Simple Challenge!
This week we have a riddle for you...
And now, a word from our amazing sponsor...
The answer is a book!
In honor of International Literacy Day on September 8th,
we have a special challenge involving papercrafting and books.
CFC18: Create a Clean And Simple project inspired by a book, and use the colors black, white and red.
You can choose your book from any genre, just please tell us which book. You may find your inspiration on the cover, from a character or from within the story itself.
Get creative and have fun with it.
In case you're not familiar with this day of observance, The United Nations' (UN) International Literacy Day annually falls on September 8 to raise people's awareness of and concern for literacy issues in the world. You can read a bit more about it HERE.
Paper and Such is an online store that just opened in May of 2011. Shortly after opening, we decided to debut our own stamp line, and it's been nothing short of exciting. Our stamps are clear photopolymer, and are made right here in the USA! Our HOT SHOT line is a line of chicken stamps - if you haven't seen them, be sure to check them out.
We strive to carry a variety of stamps and supplies to suit everyones style, and we are constantly adding to our inventory with different manufacturers.
Start making your wishlist because our lucky TGIF winner will get a super cool little shopping spree at Paper And Such!
And now its time for our inspiration parade!
