I have always marveled at you all who do so many challenges with one card.....call it whatever you will, I call it NUTS.....because in 3 short hours Michelle Z is going to be here to pick me up (4am) to go to Convention and what am I doing??? Sleeping, like any sensible person should be???? No, playing in the challenges one last time before I go......You know you're sick when you are leaving in 3 hours and you are still playing!!!! And check it out, I'm doin' the work, I'm not a slacker, (any What About Bob? fans out there??) I have combined not one, not two, not three, not four but FIVE CHALLENGES HERE LADIES - DO I HEAR A ROUND OF APPLAUSE????? FIVE IN ONE!! I HAVE THE COLOR CHALLENGE OF REGAL ROSE, PEACH PARFAIT AND OLD OLIVE, IT'S ALL IN THERE! I HAVE GLITTER, FOR THE ALL THAT GLITTERS CHALLENGE, I HAVE GINGHAM FOR THE GIRLS, GIRLS GINGHAM CHALLENGE, I AM STRUTTING MY STUFF WITH AN OLD FAVORITE STAMP FROM SU THAT I HAVE NOT USED IN LITERALLY YEARS, SO I AM USING WHAT I HAVE AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, I AM DECORATING THE WALLS OF MISS HATTIE HEARTFIELDS HOUSE WITH MY HEART WREATH!!!! FIVE IN ONE LADIES........I THINK I WILL GET ON THAT PLANE AND SLEEP ALL THE WAY TO SLC!!! WELL, SINCE IT'S ALMOST TIME FOR ME TO GET UP AND TAKE A SHOWER, I MUST SAY GOODBYE FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK. I WILL MISS YOU ALL AND MISS THE CHALLENGES AND NOT EVEN GET TO SEE ANY COMMENTS UNTIL AFTER I RETURN, OR LEAVE ANY FOR THAT MATTER ANYWAY. HAPPY WEEK TO EVERYONE!! I AM WORKING AT CONVENTION AND SO EXCITED I CAN'T SLEEP ANYWAY!!! WHAT DO PEOPLE WHO DON'T STAMP DO FOR EXCITEMENT??????? BYE FOR NOW EVERYONE!!!! HOPE YOU LIKE MY FIVER HERE....(DID I MENTION, 5 CHALLENGES IN ONE???) OKAY, now I AM sick, cuz I just tore my card apart, threw it thru the BIG SHOT with the polka dot folder and then put it back together and added a teeny tiny butterfly for my friend Dawn's winged thing, and the texture challenge which I think is Ambers??? I have to STOP!!! SOMEBODY HELP ME!! I NEED TO GO TAKE A SHOWER AND GO TO CONVENTION...(I think I might need professional help) but ANYWHO, SEVEN CHALLENGES IN ONE!! I FEEL LIKE NEVA!!!! I AM SO PROUD!!! THIS TIME I AM REALLY GOING......BYE.....

Ackkk...I have a great gif in Photobucket that would be perfect here...but I just can't get the image to show. Karen, I want to give you a five star standing ovation, here. Great card; love your excitement and enthusiasm! Get lots of sleep on the plane (as if), and have lots of fun at convention. Make sure you tell us all about it when you get back!! Cheers and Brava!!!!!

{{{{{{{{CYBER APPLAUSE}}}}}}}}} Karen, I am LOL at your commentary! I wished I lived close by because I bet you would be a joy to hang with! Like I said before...somewhere...there are so many challenges now we have to combine them out of necessity. Combining challenges is like a challenge in itself! I hope you have a blast at convention! Your card is gorgeous! That stamp is so old I do not even remember it...that is saying something, too. So glad you got to use it! Thanks for playing my DTGD Challenge and combining it with the CC and ALL those other ones, too! Hee!

IT SOUNDS LIKE SLEEP DEPRIVATION MAY HAVE HAD ITS HAND IN HELPING YOU COME OUT WITH 7 CHALLENGES. LEADING YOU TO THINK WITH THE UNCONSCIOUS SIDE OF YOUR BRAIN. ANYWAY, GREAT CREATIVITY. HAVE A FUN AND SAFE TRIP.
