Summertime in the Land that I Love VSN

Last minute question - on the supply list, will something like "Birds & Blooms" or "Family Fun" work for the color magazines or catalogs with glossy paper? Or maybe a Coldwater Creek catalog? Or do the pages need to be thicker and glossier than these? TIA!

Hey, it is almost time! 4 hours! Yeah!

alicaz · 07-30-2010, 09:56 AM

yeah - and I have a pile of things to do in those 4 hours

Okay I thought of another question! Can we combine the individual challenges together?
Or do they all have to be separate? And can we combine them with any of the weekly challenges? I don't know if I would do it, but just in case?

Thank you!
Sharon

Here's a guideline from the VSN guidelines and tips thread (VSN Guidelines and Tips)

"6. No double-duty entries are allowed in VSN. This means you cannot combine 2 or more challenges into one entry."

I don't know, though, if this also means that a VSN challenge entry can or can't do double duty with another challenge (other than VSN).

After doing a little on-line research, I'm getting the definite impression that the items I mentioned would NOT be considered "glossy". I think I may need to stop at a bookstore on the way home today....

Thank you! I didn't know there was a guideline! I will go look at it!

I'm going to pick up a pizza too! No one will complain about that and then maybe I can get started a bit earlier than normal for me. I have to wait until DD is in bed before I can start crafting!

Yes, this means no double duty cards...VSN cards can't be made for any challenges other than the one you use in the keywords to be considered for the HONORS GALLERY.

This means we can't do a daily challenge and a VSN card as one? Thanks for clarifying.

VSN Challenge cards are to be made for one challenge, only.

Sorry about the confusion.

I'm looking for the deadline to post cards to the gallery. West coast people aren't even home from work and the East coast people are finished their cards and going to bed! Hoping we have through Sunday to finish. Can someone let us know? Thanks.

Jo Ann F. · 07-30-2010, 06:26 PM

I am very confused about the challenge numbers. There are two that say ...mini15; one uses the febvsn. Should they all be taking the format VSNAug10mini 1,2, 3,4 or 5?

Beedubya · 07-30-2010, 07:24 PM

Thanks for a wonderful evening, ladies! I'll be back tomorrow to try my hand at the Pastimes Challenge and to catch up on my commenting. The gallery is looking gorgeous so far, ladies! Bravo!

Night!
