Okay, so I'm trying to pare down some of my commitments these days. I don't have many big ones, but I have lots of small ones that have been overwhelming me as of late. So.... I'm going to stop doing MIM challenges. Really, they've been fun, but it's been more of a headache trying to come up with ideas and then actually get a project done for it each week that I'm not sure it's worth it. Crafting is supposed to be fun and therapeutic, right? Not stressful and overwhelming? So it's time to say goodbye to the weekly challenges.
BUT....
You can't go out without a bang, so here's the deal. You all have one week to participate in any and all of the previous challenges and I'll put all the names in a hat and draw a winner for some blog candy! I'll have to take a picture of it and post that later, but it's some fun stuff I've been saving up for a good giveaway. So thank you to everyone who has participated in the challenges this year, and I hope you keep sharing your work with me... I love it! As for the blog candy, you know the drill... make a project, leave a comment including a link and your email address, and do it all by Monday night. I'll draw a name Tuesday morning. The more challenges you participate in, the more entries you get. Good luck!

I totally know what you mean and understand why you are not going to post challenges anymore. I admire you for setting priorities. I am going through a similiar struggle. I have become a blog junkie. I spend more time blurfing than I do crafting. I feel convicted lately to stop but it is so hard. Maybe your situation will give me the encouragement to remember my priorities. I need to stop blogging so much and comparing myself to all those talented people out there and just make cards for the pleasure. Thanks!
Here is the link to the card I made for your last challenge. I will miss your blogging, but understand. I decided to do the challenge from March 11, 2008 which is to stamp on patterned paper. Here is the link:

Thanks for the chance to play. Have a great summer.
