AUG08VSNMININ -- "Sarah Sylvia Cynthia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out"
Title: Sarah Sylvia Cynthia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out
Hostess: JoAnn (sarahzoe)
Keyword: AUG08VSNMININ
Day/Date: Friday, July 25
Time: 10:00 p.m. CST
This poem, by one of the best known and well loved artists (poet, composer, author, illustrator) of our time; Shel Silverstein, could have been written for scrappers and stampers. We collect, hoard, save, accumulate and pile up all manner of garbage (scraps). This is especially true during the fast pace of VSN. So now, it's time to clean off our tables a bit.
My challenge to you is to make a card using only the supplies that are out on your table right now. If you stamp like I do, you not only have supplies from VSN on your table, but probably supplies from the last several cards you made. If you clean up between each challenge, you may retrieve cutting tools and adhesives along with one card base.
Emergency situation...nothing on your table...you may reach into your scrap pile (eyes closed) and randomly grab 3 or 4 pieces of scrap.
Bonus: add a link in your description to one or two cards that show where you used some of your elements previously.
Have fun and try to knock down that scrap pile an inch or two. Can't wait to see your garbage designs.
**You have 45 minutes to complete this challenge**
ALL VSN MINI CREATIONS FOR JULY MUST BE UPLOADED BY AUGUST 8TH

You are a tough hostess, JoAnn! This is going to be a real challenge! My biggest problem is that I don't keep any INK on my table. I think I have some reinkers, though, so maybe I can use those for some color ...
Off I go to stamp!
I'll have to work on this one later...I do so solomnly swear I will not add anything to my work table in the meantime! It's past 11pm here and it's been a long week. Had a blast playing with you ladies tonight!
I love these kind of challenges since my stamping area is always a disaster! I didn't get to do the challenges tonight as I had hoped...so this one will have to wait too...I didn't a little cleaning this afternoon in anticipation, so there isn't much to work with at this moment.
Oooooo. JoAnn..............this is always so fun and really interesting to see what everyone has on their craft table!!! I can guarantee I always have plenty of BLING out!!! :lol: What a perfect challenge!!!! I'll go upload mine!!!
Hi ladies. I was in panic mode. I couldn't get my challenge to post right. You'd think I never did this before. What a dufus. Oh well, thanks for fixing it ps. I hope all have fun cleaning up some of the mess you've made.

I think its great. And I always have several layers of mess on my stamping table . . . my resolution is to clean it up entirely once littlest DD starts first grade in the Fall. But you'd be amazed at what you find . . . I just sent in something for the Pompeii exhibit at the Field Museum in Chicago . . . :cool:

Oh and do I EVER love this poem!!! I remember the first time I read it to the kids and we just totally cracked up!!!! Thanks for such a fun challenge and I'm sooooooooo happy you're feeling good!!!! Keep taking care of yourself!!!
