AUG10VSNO ~ Saturday, August 29 ~ 9 PM EST ~ "In the Summertime..."

Title: "In the Summertime..."
Hostess: msdaiquiri/Erica
Keyword: AUG10VSNO
Day/Date: Saturday, August 28
Time: 9 PM EST

"in the summertime when the weather's high, you can stretch right up and touch the sky, when the weather's fine, you got women, you got women on ..." - Mungo Jerry

This song reminds me of a lazy summer afternoon and doing some good old fashion bicycle riding. Think back to the movie Wedding Crashers when Owen Wilson and Rachel McAdams were riding their bikes! Inspiration for my challenge came from this...

In celebration of our festivities..."Summertime in the Land that I Love"...my challenge to you is to pick your favorite summertime song and use it to make your card. There is one teeny tiny thing...to make your card you need to use one of the Sketch AND Color Challenge from SCS!!! BUT with a little twist...you must use the same number for the sketch and color challenge! So if you pick sketch # 175 then you use the same one for your color challenge. Easy peasy???

Greywolf · 08-28-2010, 05:44 PM

Okay, this sounds like fun and do-able. I'll have to do a search for "summer" songs as I can only think of one right now. I do like the one you used but I'll find one of my own. Once I find a sketch I like, I'll look at the corresponding color challenge and just go with it I guess. :-/ However, I can't play tonight. But I'll be back tomorrow afternoon to finish up a few challenges that I've missed.

Now that Mungo Jerry song is going to be in my head all night! Arrgh!

Val

P.S. Thanks for a fun weekend.

Thank you for a fun challenge! It was fun going thru the sketches and color challenges!
That took me the most time. I finally found a combo I liked. CC247 and SC247.
And I am not very musical, but Row, Row Your boat was as good as I could come up with! Here is Row Row Your Boat.

Give Thanks in All Things

joy3ce · 08-30-2010, 02:32 PM

This was a great challenge! Once I had my image, I had to search the color combos to make it work, and that dictated the layout (#182). I don't know how to post a link yet (feel free to pm me with directions--I just learned how to upload yesterday). Fun challenge and great cards.

ArleneB59 · 08-30-2010, 04:41 PM

Great challenge, just finished my card, decided to pick a number then find the sketch and colours, now a Song title, I love all music, so "Blowing in the Wind" fits for this card. This is my first! Fun to take time to play!

GarnetJ · 08-30-2010, 05:03 PM

I am an old lady!!! Had a hard time to remember ANY songs. Then it came to me... Love Letters in the Sand, by Pat Boone.

CC80 and SC80

Here's my Card.... Love Letters Looks darker IRL. Sun washed out the colors a bit.
