Please read about both challenges below:

At Berry71Bleu:

For this month's challenge, you will have to use chipboards on our projects...

Paint, mist, glitter, distress, decoupage, stamp, emboss....doesn't matter how you do it, just as long as you use chipboard on your project. It could be a LO, altered art, OTP, home decor, card, tags, or any way you can creatively use chipboards.

So we hope you can join us and share your project using your favorite line of chipboard.

Our sponsor this month, Wycinanka, had generously provided the winner a package of chipboards.

Here is what you can win..
