Choose at least 5 items from this list to use on your project. You may use other things as well.
HERE is the list:

POSTAGE STAMP EMBELLISHMENT ***must have at least two 'tear edges', see samples below
BLACK PHOTO MAT(S)
EYELETS (3+)
RUB-ON
PUFFY STICKER(S)
WORD "SPRING" IN TITLE/SUBTITLE
TAB
RHINESTONES/GEMS (3+)

you can use postage stamp dies, clear/rubber stamps

49 & Market washi tape

You can also make some with decorative scissors.
AND you can use the real thing! If you have questions please ask.


Here are the RULES to this challenge. 
* Please list the items when you post your project & it really helps if you tell me what/where they are (ex. puffy sticker is the red star in the right corner)  IF I CAN'T SEE IT...I CAN'T COUNT IT.
* Please don't combine an item with another item on the list...for instance don't use frame from Fancy Pants and try to count it for 2 things. Either count it for frame or Fancy Pants. So NO DOUBLE DIPPING!
* LIMIT of 5 entries 
* Photos are required on layouts
* You may combine with one monthly challenge   
* 2 page layout counts as 1 entry
* You may enter layouts and cards
* Due Date: LAST DAY OF THE MONTH,11:59 PM EST
*There will be a random drawing from all participants who have completed the challenge correctly for a $5 ACOT GC.

this is always my favorite challenge, this month will be tricky for me because I have neither rub-ons nor cocoa vanilla. 
As always, I have a question: Can we use real postage stamps? I have baggies of real postage stamps from all over the world that I use as embellishments.
