What time does it start tomorrow...hoping in the afternoon, probably not though...
have fun everyone!
I'm excited too! Has everyone excavated their stamping areas??
Excavated? Hardly! Does everyone else just drop stuff on the floor like me and let it pile up til you can hardly move around in your craft cave? Add in a couple big ol puppies who think it's their job to be right next to ya at all times......
Maybe Miss Lydia can entertain my puppies in another room while I play??
I was a bit behind and didn't realize this was happening this weekend. Is there a shopping list? I haven't spied it, yet -- could be I've looked in the wrong place . . . . Thanks!!

The post with the list was right under my nose . . . as my father would say, "If it were a snake, it would have bit you!"
I am going to challenge myself and try the VSN for the first time. Sort of nervous and excited at the same time. I'm not sure if I ever made anything beautiful in 45mins. This will be interesting....

You can do it, you'll be so surprised at how fun it is when you have an actual challenge to get you started it's not as hard to do in 45 minutes as you think it is
I haven't participated in one of these VSN's in a while. I guess I better go read the rules for VSN's so I don't break any rules. Looking forward to a fun and crafty weekend!
Already can't find anything on my desk. Seriously - who has my label punch??
If I have it you couldn't find it! There is a mess on my table, floor, ironing board, everywhere! Yes, since the ironing board is out, I started stacking stuff on it!! LOL I am quitting for the night. Not even starting the last one! I've had it! Tomorrow I have a wedding in the afternoon, so I will really fall behind!
Whew! After having gotten a late start (didn't start till after 8:00 pm), I finally got caught up! Now I have to try to get a little order in my stampng area so I can get ready to start all over again. I'm going out for dinner to help celebrate my son's birthday tonight, so I'll be late finishing up with today's challenges too.
I am all caught up now too! Stamp room still a mess though. I have to go shower and get ready for a wedding at noon! Don't know how long I will be gone, but I will probably be 5 cards or so behind, by the time I get back!
But is is a blast! Love it!
Yay! I finished every one, although I did have to do the last four today. Now I can concentrate on looking through the gallery at everyone's cards. What a fun weekend!
I got all 17 cards done, took pictures and uploaded the last of them this morning. Have no idea what I am going to do with most of them, except the cup card...that one will go to my MIL next time I see her. It was fun playing along this time, unfortunately now I have to clean my craft area and DH thinks I should do the laundry I didn't do this weekend while I was playing.

He is something, I am not always sure what though. I told him it was his fault that I was working on catching up all yesterday, as I had to go pick him up at the airport on Saturday and instead of it taking a couple hours, I ended up being gone for 7, as he had the strangest trip I have ever heard of, turning around 15 minutes into a 20 minute commuter flight because of wet runways and then finally landing at the airport only to have them not taxi to the gate due to lightening in the area. If I had known it would take as long as it did, I would have done more shopping at the craft stores while I was near some.

Lydia, did you ever find your label punch? I just finnished cleaning my craft room and didn't find it. There were a couple of other things I couldn't find too! I got my craft table all cleaned off and have all my cards lined up. I have two mens birthday cards, one sympathy card ( which I needed) several thank you cards, thinking of you cards, and a child's birthday card. I am ready for almost anything! That is one of the best things of these challenges is getting cards made ahead! In the May one and the DTGD one I made wedding cards and baby cards, and have used everyone of them. In fact I need another wedding card!
This was the best one so far! I loved the challenges and learned at least three new techniques! And besides all of that, look at all the ideas in the gallery! It amazes me how different we all translated the challenges! The cards were mostly all different! I love looking at everyone elses! I think the hostesses outdid themselves! It was a great time!
