Default JUN20VSNC~ Fishin in the Dark~ Friday June 26, 6pm EST

Challenge Title: Fishin' In The Dark
Hostess: Annette (AnnetteMac)
Keyword: JUN20VSNC



Date: Friday June 26, 2020 6pm ET


I'm so glad that you could join me for my first ever VSN challenge! I really enjoy the song "Fishin' in the Dark" by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. It has such a catchy tune and great lyrics full of summertime imagery.

My challenge to you is to use the song lyrics as inspiration. Let us know in the description what part of the lyric inspired you. Use your imagination, anything goes!




View the Gallery for this challenge: HERE
View the Summer Playlist Gallery: HERE
View the Summer Playlist Master Challenge Thread: HERE


1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 11 pm ET July 6, 2020.
2. You have 1 hour to complete each challenge unless otherwise noted. (you do not have to count prep time.)
3. We have a special gallery for the Summer Playlist VSN:
a) From the "Main Gallery" dropdown list on the first page of the uploader, choose Events and Special Collections.
b) From the Sub-gallery dropdown list, choose Virtual Stamping and Scrapbooking Nights ~ it's the last in the list.
c) From the new sub-gallery dropdown list choose Summer Playlist - it's usually the very top of the list.
4. Please remember to put in the correct keyword when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
5. Please do not combine VSN challenges...but you may combine any other challenges with a VSN challenge!

It is also highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in this chat thread to be sure your creation is seen. THANKS SO MUCH FOR PLAYING ALONG!!!


Special thanks to my wonderful sample makers: Ann, Sharon, Sonja, Janet and Jen

This song will stay in my head for a while. It's a very catchy tune.

Here's my sample card:

Great job, Annette. Never heard the song till now but it most certainly is catchy. I am one of those who has a phonographic mind and will probably have an "ear worm" with this tune for days! Good thing I like Country.

I played a twist on the title of the song as inspiration for my card.

I was pretty excited when I saw your title..I love the Dirt Band and this song is on my Spotify Favs...so it pops up now and then when I'm stamping...ha! It is very catchy..I love singing along with it and all their other songs. I focused on the line about lightning bugs...

well, I have this song in a couple different play lists so, that was not a problem. the problem came in with hunting for anything looking up at the stars. my brain would not budge from laying in the cool dark grass... yeah, so this is nothing like I thought it would be. Thanks for this challenge Annette

"Fish" and "night" of navy were my inspiration for this one related to the song:
