*You MUST include the challenge # (which can be found at the Stampotique Designer's Challenge blog) behind your name

NOTE: Any entries not linking directly to your creation AND having the challeng # will be deleted and not eligible for prize.   For example if I'm entering it would look like this-

(or whichever challenge # it is) 

We ask that if you have comment verification turned on, that you would consider turning this on and doing comment moderation instead.

**Change to Stampotique submission rules:  You will now have until the first challenge of the following month to submit your entries-we will only have one Inlinkz per month; so today marks the start of the challenges for June and it will run through the close of our last challenge for June which will be July 5th at 12:00 p.m. EST**

SDC246: Anything but Black

Hello and welcome to the blog and a fun new challenge. It's beginning to look like Spring is truly in the air. Flowers are blooming, birds are chirping and trees are getting their wonderful leaves. 

Which brings us to this week's challenge. Samantha Read is our hostess this week and she is challenging us to "Anything but Black" Here is what Samantha says about this challenge:

"The first thing I usually do after choosing which stamp I'm going to use is to reach for my black inkpad. So I'm challenging myself and you to make anything you fancy so long as there is no black ink or paint etc. Have fun!"

So let's see your best "non-black" creations. No black what-so-ever is going to be quite a challenge to most of us, as we usually run for that black ink pad, just like Samantha does. 

Good Luck!!

IMPORTANT REMINDER:
