MAR12VSNC *Friday, March 9th 7:00pm EST ~Spring Cleaning
Title: Spring Cleaning
Hostess: Andrea, blondpolock14
Keyword: MAR12VSNC
Day/Date: Friday, March 9th
Time: 7:00pm EST
My challenge is to go find something from the depths of your crafting supplies that you haven't seen or used in at least 6 months! It could be some hideous patterned paper, a set of nesties that's been neglected, some embellishments that got lost, a stamp set that you haven't used yet, or maybe a technique that you haven't used in a long time! I know we ALL can do this challenge(many, many times)!!!
I know it's a pretty broad challenge, but let us know in your description what you found to use for this challenge while cleaning! Plus, this is a good time to get started on that tedious task that most of us seem to dislike..."SPRING CLEANING!"
VIEW THE GALLERY FOR THIS CHALLENGE HERE
UPLOADING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 10:00PM EST ON MONDAY, MARCH 12th.
2. You have 45 minutes to complete the challenge.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword, MAR12VSNC, when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos. __________________

What a great challenge Andrea! My goodnesss! I have stamps and all kinds of things i have never used! In fact last time I ordered from SU! I ordered a stamp set i already had! How bad is that? What a terrible confession to make. AKK!
Well, my Dear Sweet DH has just called me to supper. Yes he fixed grilled sandwiches for us tonight. So while I eat I will think.

You color my world
Here's mine. I've had this polka dot rainbow paper laying around forever and everytime I clean up I think "I need to use that." So, I used it for this card! I love anything RAINBOW!

I just pulled out some really old DSP the other day for Easter cards (it was from lat Easter).
By the way, love your SCS name Andrea. Being from Western NY (Buffalo) originally, it made me giggle.

Had fun cleaning out in a couple of ways with this challenge. The 45 minute time limit is going to be the end of me! Here's my card. |

Thanks for playing!
My SCS name is all true! You're a long way from home! We're going to a GREAT gathering in Amherst at the end of April! It's one of the best gatherings I've ever been to! __________________

I did my spring cleaning a few weeks ago in my stamp room, and found this uninked adorable stamp! I'm going to be using it for another VSN challenge too. .. SHHH!

Do you believe in the Easter frog?
I've had this stamp for a very long time, and have used it frequently. When I got my first copics, I colored the bunny and frog image, just to get started. It's been on my desk top for more than a year, now!
Thanks for giving me the inspiration to find a home for it...

I love a challenge that helps me revisit a technique or tool I've allowed to gather dust. Thanks for a fun challenge!

I was apparently channeling you while you were scheming this fabulous challenge because I just completed a stamp room purge, but I SO did NOT touch my ribbon... HANDS OFF! Here's some ribbon that's never seen a card, but why?!!?! :rolleyes:

Hi - here is my card for Spring Cleaning - I hadn't used this set since I got it in July. I also used the Cherry Scented EP which isn't as old - but that I haven't used yet.

First time playing along in VSN!
Even though I rarely get to play, I like looking at all the creative results of VSN and appreciate all the hard work and organization that goes into it!
Great challenge. I had yet to use this set even though I ordered it when the catalog came out.
