MAR12VSNMINI1~Friday, Feb 10~5pm EST~What Came First?
Title: What Came First?
Hostess: Kelly (Sunstamper)
Keyword: MAR12VSNMINI1
Day/Date: February 10, 2012
Time: 5:00pm EST
So what came first, the chicken or the egg?
If you enter this question into an internet search engine, you get thousands of links with differing opinions. Actually, I don’t really care which came first, they both taste great!
Your challenge is to create a card that features either a chicken or an egg, or maybe both. Other specifics are up to you!
Please click
here for 41 seconds of pure inspiration. Thanks for playing along. Happy Spring!

2. You have 45 minutes to complete the challenge.
3. Please remember to put the correct keyword, MAR12VSNMINI1, when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
4. Remember, there's no combining VSN challenges.
5. Post a link to your creation in this thread to be sure your card is seen.

Sure you have something for this challenge - an egg-shaped card would count I suppose!

That is a good idea. I could use an oval die or something. Thank you. I will start on the next one and be thinking on this one.

I actually got my card done in 40 minutes, which is super fast for me! But, my camera batteries are dead! So waiting for them to charge now!

I was just browsing around Facebook and saw a post about the VSN mini! I almost missed it. I just colored this image to try out my new Derwent Inktense pencils. Here's my card:

Well Kelly, I have to say this is one of the more unusual challenges I've seen at VSN. So glad I had a set that worked for it. Here is
my card .

I'm working on this one first a) because I have both chicken and egg stamps and b) because your write-up cracks me up (get it?). Yes, they both do taste great. But my fave right now are the eggs I get from my friend Tamara's chickens. Hmmm. I think I just figured out what's for dinner.
