LSC59A - Surprise!
SURPRISE! This just isn't the stalker's surprise challenge, it's really a surprise challenge!
Make a card or scrapbook page * See Bonus *with a surprise theme. Some ideas are:
* a surprise birthday party invitation
* Surprise... You're going to be a grandma!
* Surprise, We're having twins!
* You're surprise awaits you at the top of the Empire State Building... Meet me at midnight!
Keyword: LSC59A
Limit: surprise theme
Stamps: any
Cardstock: any
Ink: any
Embellishments: any
Techniques: You may use any technique... but if you choose to use a surprise technique like a pop-up card or a hidden message, it still needs to have a surprise theme.
If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!
If you need help with uploading your card to the gallery or posting a link, click here!
Forums at Splitcoaststampers
Please put LSC59A in the keyword box when uploading!
Here are some samples:

FRIENDSHIP SURPRISE
Thank you for Looking. |

Wow! I'm so impressed that people are stamping tonight! I thought it would be the usual wait until the morning stamping! This is so cool... like a pajama party!

I am up stamping. Like all the cards so far. Wish I could upload mine but still having problems with my pictures. By the way, I just had a bowl of ice cream. Chocolate of course. That makes it a real VSH night. Janet

Finally got it scanned and combined (magic card & I put open & close on one image).
Magic Surprise
(just realized my image was too big, so it may be pending for awhile to get it adjusted.... here it is for now)

I had this idea in my head, but it took me forever to put it down on paper. Good thing this isn't a timed challenge... I'd have to count this for at least 2. Here's the surprise juggler.

*SIGH* Ok, I'm done! That took me awhile. This was my first attempt at a pop-up card. I'm not completely excited with the outcome so I may have to try another. This card could be given to spouse/granparent or whoever to reveal baby's sex...say after the ultrasound.
Pop-up Baby Closed
Pop-up Baby Open

It has to be pretty small, but I can't remember the measurements. It's also pretty picky about which way the longest side can be, vertical or horizontal. Thumbnail attachments scare me :eek:
Found the directions:
Thumbnail uploads from emilymomto3boys:
Click "reply" on your thread.
Scroll down after you type your message and look for the "manage attachements" button. Click on it.
A box will come up and you need to click on "browse". Find your card and click "upload".
After it is uploaded, close the box.
Then submit the thread. It should be right there!
A tip, if you are uploading a jpg photo, it must be smaller than 640 x 480. You don't have these limitations for the gallery, but you do for posting in a thread. You may have to shrink your picture a bit smaller than usual....no big deal though!

Ok, thanks Jen. I think my problem was that it was too big, so if I could just figure out how to shrink it! ;) Too bad DH is fast asleep! __________________

I new you all would probably have posted cards way before me....but, I did finish within 2 1/2 hours...for me, that's not to bad. I was also able to combine some of this weeks challenges in with this challenge...so, does that give me extra credit. Here it is...pending approval at 2:35 a.m. edst
