VSD 2 Challenge #2

Hi ladies!
I'm so excited to be hosting a challenge for our second VSD!
I found the inspiration for my challenge from 12 years of marriage to my wonderful DH of which I celebrate....TODAY! I hope you enjoy what I came up with :)

Okay, here it goes...

My challenge to you is make any project: card, scrapbook page, 3D item, etc. but follow these 4 steps:

Use Something...

Old ~ We all have those embellishments that we're hoarding or that paper we've put back that we never get out because it's so special. Pull out those older items to create something wonderful.

New ~ I know you have something you purchased recently that you can't wait to try. Incorporate it into your project.

Borrowed ~ I know what you're thinking. How can I use something borrowed on my project? My idea behind this is using something you were given by a fellow crafter. It just needs to be something you DID NOT purchase yourself.

Blue ~ Incorporate something blue on your creation! Easy enough right?

Is it bringing back those wedding memories yet? hee! hee!

I can't wait to see what you create and I'll try and post a pic of my project a little later.

** Post your creation to your blog by 7pm tonight and your name will be entered for a chance to win some crafty goodies from me!

Blessings...
Melina

VSD 2 Challenge #1

Hi ladies! I'm excited to be bringing you the first challenge for our second VSD!

So without delay, here it is. Time to break out the ink! The challenge is to make a card with no layers, but having the illusion of layers. You may use ONE piece of cardstock (any color) and any embellishments. For a little twist, let's make it a spring theme. I think we could use a little thaw out, at least here in Ohio! Here' s the tutorial on SCS. There are also some great examples for inspiration in the gallery.

Please have your card posted on your blog and linked here by 7pm EST and I will have my son pick his favorite for a prize (TBD).

Can't wait to see what we all come up with!

It's the 3 Challenge...Challenge #18!!!!

In order to get ready for our big Super Bowl Sunday VSD I thought I would throw a "pile it on" challenge for everyone!

Here are the details:
1. It can be any kind of boy card...in honor of those boys who are playing football on Sunday.
2. Plus you have to incorporate at least two other challenges from other blogs of your choice.
3. Don't use any bling on your card...boys don't like sparkly things...unless of course your a vampire:)

Your post must be scheduled to post at 10am EST on Feb 7th. This means you have between now and then to create your card and schedule it to post by this time and date. Please do not post earlier.

Guess what???? There are prizes too...I bet you can't guess how many????

That's right, 3!!!!!!!



Love ya,
Lesley

Since many of us have page goals we are trying to reach. I thought it would be a wise idea to have a break in the card challenges and give you a page challenge. If you don't scrapbook, maybe try taking the rules and making a card with them.. the sketch might be a little difficult to trim down, but I know you are crafty and can do it!!

Here are the rules

1. Use the following sketch
2. Use only from your stash - no buying allowed!!
3. Use at least two different patterned papers.

You can make this one page - or two pages, but please use the sketch for at least one of the pages.

Layouts are to be posted on your blog sometime between January 23-27, 2010

That's it!
