The goal of this cross promo/double challenge is to introduce you all to 2 awesome companies, gather inspiration from both DTs and have the opportunity to enter 2 fun challenges!


Here is a bit about TAWS for those of you not familiar~ The Alley Way Stamps is owned and operated and all super adorable designs drawn by Alison Spelman...you can check out her shop here~ http://www.thealleywaystamps.com


Here is a bit about 3 Girl JAM for those who are unfamiliar ~ 3 Girl JAM is owned and operated by the talented Julie K Bling and her 2 daughters. They make the most beautiful hand dyed crinkle ribbon.... you can check out her shop here~ http://www.3girljam.com/

Every 2 weeks TAWS have a new challenge based on a fun photo called "Be Inspired" and 3GJ has their own challenge using 3GJ Crinkle Ribbon.  So for this challenge the DT's are using the inspiration photo, The Alley Way Stamps and ribbon. YOUR challenge will be to come up with a project using THIS photo, a stamp and ribbon:

Remember the photo is for inspiration ONLY....be creative, use your imagination and show us what this photo inspired you to create.  Need some inspiration?  We hope you will hop through the line-up and see all the gorgeous projects the DTs have created:

Over at the TAWS blog and the 3GJ challenge blog you will find out more about their individual challenges and have the opportunity to link up to not just one challenge but both challenges for the chance to win some awesome prizes!

For my card, I used a sentiment from the new TAWS set Words to Live By and a sketch from Mojo Monday:



How can you win PRIZES??? 

1) Hop though our mini hop both weeks (next Friday will be part two), comment on all the DT's projects and enter BOTH challenges and your name will be entered to win a TAWS stamp set and a Bundle of 3GJ!  If you don't have any TAWS stamps yet, check out the freebies here.

2) Each challenge will also be giving away a TAWS stamp sets and a Bundle of 3GJ Crinkle Ribbon so make sure you visit and play along with both.

Hi Melissa - another stunning card! Your bow is gorgeous; wish I weren't all thumbs when it comes to using ribbon. Still, with such a challenge facing me, must give it a try! Thank you again, for sharing and inspiring. Have a wonderful day; hope warm winds and spring weather are yours for the weekend.
