LOL! I remember that song well. Too funny!

There were left over bits that I bought last year and I figured I should use them up.

ScrappinCEO · 01-30-2012, 09:10 AM

Okay, ladies I'm all caught up! Just a couple days left to see more cards coming through!

Another note, after we move to February, I won't get to this thread more than once a week - just to see if there are new cards. If I kept up with every thread every day, by December, do we really want to think about how I'd find time to sleep? LOL

So if you want to be sure I see your cards, push to get them in DURING the current month.

vikkijo · 01-30-2012, 10:35 AM

I was about to say that same thing Kelly!

After I get caught up for the drawing I won't here in our January Thread.

January ends Tuesday at Midnight. That is what I will be looking at on your uploads to qualify you for the prize envie from Kelly.
Any uploads after that will go onto to be February...maybe get time to do an another set and stay caught up p for your own goals.

Merry Christmas ladies!

329 Days Left Till Christmas! I love knowing it's more than 300 days away yet! LOL

jd33 · 01-30-2012, 01:51 PM

I finally got mine uploaded! The image is waiting approval, so hopefully it will be there soon. Here is the link to my gallary.

Boy, was the upload process a buster tonight. I'm done and now I want to get away from the computer!

Here is my card for January. Incidentally, the same set I used last January.

Bells & Boughs with Gold Doily

Hopefully I'll cruise the gallery and see some of the new creations! (Once I get over my computer frustration.) Sounds like some neat cards out there!

Plain Jane · 01-30-2012, 07:53 PM

Love these, too, Shelley! Never too much of a great stamp, right?

Computer is being stinky on my end, too...thought it was just me.

Margscardcrazy · 01-31-2012, 02:57 AM

O boy, just in by the skin of my teeth here are my three cards and two tags.
Cheers

I'm done, but can't upload my pictures until I get my laptop fixed. I am working off a netbook and I shudder to think how long it would take to upload them.

Ina can vouch that I have them done.

*grumbles that the screen on the laptop died*

Mel, do you want me to come over and photograph them? I need to borrow something from you anyway. Will call you as soon as I get off line (grumbles with dial up!)

yellowrose46 · 01-31-2012, 05:41 AM

Oh, I forgot to verify that they are done! Melissa finished them at work this weekend (in the rare moments of respite we had from a heavy workload). They are beautiful! Love that cherry cobbler!

vikkijo · 01-31-2012, 07:36 AM

I have to run to the doc now so I will comment on galleries later.

hoping to get my staples out today!

YAY! On getting done in time for January! Great feeling isn't it?

mschoener · 01-31-2012, 07:46 AM

Good luck at the doctor vikkijo.
