    In the spirit of the Cock n Bull Challenge presented by Sissy Sparrows, let's make up some whoppers! We'll follow their rules, loosely.

    1. Create a page using the photo provided
    2. Create a "Tall Tale" story & include it on your page
    3. Page sizes - 8.5 x 11 OR 12 x 12, your choice
    4. Please post a link to your page in this thread
    5. Try to use some Sissy Sparrows products
    6. New photos will be posted every two weeks

    The image below must be used in your page - remember to also include your tale!

    This is a sample I threw together to get us started, I call it "Spot Remover".

    So, let's have some fun!!

    LOVE IT! Can't wait to come up with a "tall tale", but I don't think it will be as clever as this one! Thanks for getting this started.

    I had some free time at work, was browsing the forum and saw your post!

    I've always had a blast doing the challenge and missed it. Thanks for posting a photo, now to come up with my story. I'll be back.
