Default CSSC83 - Let's Go to the Fair!

Good morning All!

Are you ready for a challenge? Let's go to the Fair! It's fairly simple: grab your Crafty Secrets images, stamps, and/or paper, and think about the fair. Don't worry if you don't think you have "fair-specific" images. Be inspired by the fun food, produce & flowers on display, patterns & colors of the fair, and let your imagination go!

Here's my sample:

At the Fair Scrapbook Layout

Let's Go to the Fair! Gallery

This is an inspiration challenge, so it's very open-ended - the sky's the limit! Have fun, and remember there's no time limit. Feel free to join in any time, and don't forget to post a link to your creation on this thread.

Good morning, Ladies!!! Marcy--I actually finished this yesterday--I was feeling "fairly" confident by the afternoon that I could get this done early! This was a lot of fun--we had just gone to the Santa Cruz Beach boardwalk last week at night, so this image was perfect, and this rhinestone trim I have reminded me of the lights at night at a fair.

Thanks for another great challenge! Can't wait to see all your creations, girls!

Thanks Marcy for a very Fun Filled FAIR Challenge! Unfortunately with DH's health we aren't able to get to any of the Fairs this year but we both enjoy them and look forward to next year.

Here is a little of what my FUN FAIR FLING would consist of. Thanks again for hosting Marcy!!

I'm trying to figure out why I only see my card in the CSSC83 gallery ... you both have yours tagged properly ... must be an SCS glitch????

Maybe because Julie & I are still waiting for approval?

Sounds yummy, Pammyjo! There's a cafe not far from here that serves fair food all year - yikes! Glad it's 6 miles away; if it was up the street, I would be in serious trouble.

You're such a fun friend, Darlene! Thanks for the advertising--now I'm embarassed! Thanks you two for checking in--my daughters were stunned that people had looked at it already--really impressed them--until I had to tell them you knew about it & were just being kind to me--but then they just thought you were really cool for doing it! So, thanks! It's a totally nothing blog right now, but I've got some ideas....hopefully it will be fun!

Hi ladies. I don't have anything suitable for this catagory, but I ordered a bunch of Heartwarming Vintage Collection product yesterday and hope to be able to play along again soon! I'm so excited and can't wait to get my new stuff. I started out with 3 stamp sets, so now I'm ready to grow my CS collection! I did create a CS project this week though. If you want to see, you can check it out HERE

I will check out all of your wonderful projects for this week challenge over the weekend!!

I'm wondering if any of you ever do Crafty Secret stamp image swaps?? If anyone is interested in swapping some images please PM me.
I have 3 of the medium sets:
Christmas Joy
Halloween Fun
Bird Notes

I plan on ordering the large Thanksgiving set and the Mini Memories set soon.

I've been going through old black and white photo's and can't wait to work on some vintage layouts!

Thanks for the SPOTLIGHT to Julie's blog.....IT'S WONDERFUL
I'm trying to work on one myself.......lots to learn cause I'm trying to to the SU demo stuff and other things also.
WHEN DO you guys find TIME to fit it ALL in ?.......I know , I know you don't have to do it daily.........I think my slow internet doesn't HELP.


I've been working on samples for a Halloween Stamp Camp...so my thoughts have been elsewhere this week.
Thought I had my mojo going for the FAIR challenge but...I failed...argh!
Good thing there is no time limit!

Pammyjo! Your mojo's always hot--what are you talking about! Can't wait to see what you do. Thanks for the kind words--looking forward to seeing your blog, too. It doesn't take too much time, it seems (me saying this with 2 days invested so far--so experienced!) Can't wait to see it!
