Woohoo! It's Time for the Fair! Believe it or not I really don't like rides but I love to go to the Fair, LOL!

I think it comes from when I was younger and being fascinated with all that goes on at the fair. There's so much to see, smell, taste, hear and feel.

Since we're just getting started with our VSBN Fair I thought it would be fun to be inspired by all the Sights & Sounds of the Fair ... there's so many fun things to see and do! Let's add lots of fun things to our page!

My Fair Challenge is to select 4 things from the list below & 1 Technique to use on your page:

Fabric or felt
Washi Tape
Ribbon/twine
Flags-pennants-pinwheels
3+ flowers
Swirls/Flourishes
Bling / Rhinestones
4+ patterned papers
Hexagons
transparency
metal embellishment/hardware

TECHNIQUES
punches (border/corner)
stamped background
distressing
stitching-hand-machine-faux

Here's Mine: Life! Sit Back and Enjoy

Oops, I forgot about VSBN tonight. I just got home. This looks easy enough. I'll try to get to it this weekend. Thanks for posting, Lela!

Looks like I'm not the only one who forgot! I guess we'd better start reminding everyone! Are we gonna have any notices on the SCS home page?

Thanks Wendy! Our hostess for today had something come up so I posted mine for this evening

Since we have a week for each mini-challenge, it works. We will have announcements and it will be posted for main event. Have Fun!

I couldn't find this last night. I must have went to bed before you posted it.
My DGD and DD and I might do a page today for this. I am at their home several states away from my craft room, but they have some supplies! And DGD and I already have an album started. She has already picked out four things from the list and a technique she likes. So see you later!

With my DD and her family here this week, I totally forgot about this too. Sorry. Today is the last day they will be here and they've already left my house to go visiting other relatives. Probably won't be back until late this afternoon and then they plan to leave right away to drive back to Colorado so most of today will be spent cleaning up the whirlwind of things left around the house looking for anything that might be their's. Oh...and lots of laundry!

This challenge looks pretty easy so maybe I'll get a chance in between loads. I loved the pinwheels. I'll have to look for the tutorial or template I know I have somewhere in my digi stash and see if I can get it to work.

Lela I'll try to get to this - I really haven't had any scrapbooking mojo for weeks now. Just have to figure out how to incoporate four things into my page. I'm really a "clean and simple" kind of gal!

DD, DGD and I finished our pages! So fun! Here are our pages!

I've finally gotten my page done....boy did I ever get interrupted while trying to put this together. DD and family brought DGS home from visiting family and left right away for Colorado...DGS is so depressed and sad so I had to bolster his spirits. It's amazing what York Peppermint patties, ice cream and computer games will do for him...cheered him right up! (at least for a bit) Here's my page.
