I posted cards 15-18 on my blog and they are awaiting approval in the SCS gallery. Feels good to post something again! Now I'm off to start catching up... I'm about 15 cards "behind"!
I have just posted my 80th card to my gallery, only 20 more to go, woo hoo! And I better get them done quick because I have a boatload of goodies heading my way from the new Holiday Catalog! I hope you all have a fabulous 4th of July!
Way to go! I have done 50 but I am way behind in blogging. And I haven't upload anything to the gallery in weeks. Having to work really gets in the way of play time, but it keeps me in supplies
Speaking of supplies, I have given into temptation and done some shopping. I know, I know, but the sales were too good and the supplies were too cute. But I have to say I shop a little smarter now. For example as much as I love DP, I know I don't use it very often. And when I do use DP, I don't use very much, so I know not to buy any in large amounts. How's everyone else doing with the no shopping thing?
In case I don't make it back here before the holiday, I hope everyone has a safe and fun 4th of July.
bumping this to the next page....in case anyone has a list

Whew!! I am finally caught up. Days 10-17 are done and in the gallery. I have some already on my blog and some scheduled to post on my blog. I have been working hard the last couple of days to get caught up and ahead of the game. My husband is on vacation next week and I don't want to work while he's home. I have 7 more cards to finish this week and post to my blog so that I will still be on schedule.
Please stop by my blog and check them out. And if you like, I would like you to, follow my blog. Thanks ladies...Have a great 4th of July.
Well, I tried to go back through and gather a list of us who are doing this challenge (in case anyone wanted to put us on their blog roll or blog side bar). If I am missing anyone please let me know and I'll go back and edit this post. I'm missing some blog links because I couldn't find them.

That's great Mindy! Thanks so much. Hope you didn't mind that I was trying to gather a list together. I'll check my blog to and update with the names that I am missing.
rswanger- I'm sure it's fine that you don't have a blog...I was just trying to gather a list for us. I didn't even think to add your splitcoast gallery- sorry about that. I'll go fix it now.

Wow, Awesome! I'll have to add our Blog List to my Blog! I've glanced through the gallery and hope to get time this weekend to add comments to all of the GREAT crafty inspiration.
So far so good here!

I'm behind, I think. Mom had a stroke last week so I've been busy at the hospital and then I've had my nephew here for the week who requires constant attention. I did make a card yesterday and it was SO fun! : ) Hopefully I'll get caught up soon!
Hi!
I added some photos to my blog. I had made 3 of the little girl, but one was mailed. I had also made 4 other cards but they were sent before I remembered to take photos. Ooops. This project has done wonders for my stash of blank cards. Thanks
Hey Tricia - sorry to hear things have been difficult. I hope it's looking up!
Haven't made many cards the last few days, had a total disaster of a day on Thursday and today I've been making my youngest son a playmat. The sewing machine was dusted down and press-ganged into action. Meant to do some stitching on cards too but I just wanted my dining room tidy again after a week of my older son's "den" (Sheets pegged to chairs) and then all day today sewing stuff.
This heatwave we're having here on the East Coast isn't a lot of fun. We're all getting a wee bit housebound, especially me. The antibiotics I'm on for pneumonia say to avoid direct exposure to sunlight so I've been hiding out like a vampire! Apparently it's to cool down on Sunday, after some severe thunderstorms. Oh, joy!
Anyway everyone, enjoy your weekends! I'm loving checking on all your blogs on Google Reader and I try to comment when I get chance. So many inspiring ideas....

Hope everyone had a safe and fun 4th! The 4th kicks off a month of birthdays in my family, sister, nephew, son, husband and son's gf, 3 down, 2 more to go. Bexx, hope you're feeling better and getting a little relief from the heat! I just posted #89 in the gallery, just 11 more to 100. I have new goodies coming on Tuesday, so I better get my butt in gear, lol! I have 3 challenge cards in the works and there are 2 SCS challenges on both Monday and Tuesday, so that leaves just 4 more. I have another wedding card sample to work with, a Cape Cod Lighthouse image matted and ready to go and 2 florals colored, so I should be able to get them all done before Mr. Brown arrives with my new toys Tuesday afternoon!

Thanks everyone. I'm on hospital duty for the next 10 days while my sister is out of town and my dad is hard to handle. He needs to be in control and he's not, so he can be difficult.... Like moving mom without the nurses being there and such. I need patience!!!
Hi everyone! I'm doing my best to keep up with my 100 cards goal. The heat here on the east coast has been awful, but the weather is supposed to be getting cooler now. The kids have been spending lots of time in the pool, but even the pool water is too warm. It was 92 degrees yesterday...ugh!
I'm behind, I think. Mom had a stroke last week so I've been busy at the hospital and then I've had my nephew here for the week who requires constant attention. I did make a card yesterday and it was SO fun! : ) Hopefully I'll get caught up soon!
So sorry Tricia to hear this. I will be praying for your mom.

Ok ladies, here's my question. How do I add all these to my blog? I have no idea. Thanks for any help.
I also posted another card on my blog. Check it out if you have a chance..and please, if you would, follow my blog.. I only have 8 ppl. :( Thanks.
I have made 19-29 but am out of town until Sunday. I will hopefully get them blogged and uploaded early next week. I did a OSW and I LOOOOVE the way it turned out. I'm doing a craft fair in early August so that will get my butt in gear!
Morning all - thanks to everyone who stopped by my blog and left comments. Getting to know all of you is a lovely bonus to this challenge. I'm so grateful to Mindy for getting it started. I got some cards done this weekend (maybe even some swap cards, Patty ;) )so the actual total number of cards I've made is creeping up if you count the duplicates. And I'm quite willing to do that - I am so in awe of those of you hitting the high numbers with a different card each time; obviously I need to get rid of this pesky day job!
I'm well into the 80's now... and I think I will just keep going... I am going to make it a make a card every day challenge I think! I too am so grateful, I've never been so inspired and I feel like my card making has made a big leap forward. Thanks Mindy!
On a side note, I just discovered the PIF threads and have a lovely Amuse alpha headed my way in return for a little-used SU set I had. New stuff with very little outlay = winner IMHO! They're in the "Everything Else" section of the swap threads if you haven't encountered them before.
Also, which of you guys is an Amuse rep? I spotted the Union Jack set is on special in July and I think that's going to push me over the edge! I am an SU rep if you fancy working something out... LMK!

I am bummed, I didn't finish my last 5 cards before my new staff arrived and now I have jury duty! I thought for sure I would just call in and not have to appear, but no such luck. Well at least I will have plenty of time to check out blogs!

Tricia, I'm sorry to hear about your parents. I hope you will take a little time for yourself each day, so that you can handle everything else being thrown at you.
Hugs!
Tisha
I got card #96 finished and posted/blogged tonight and it is one I am pretty happy with. I probably won't get much done tomorrow, was seated on a jury today and the trial starts tomorrow afternoon. I might squeak another one in tomorrow morning, no guarantees. But I am really itching to play with my new stuff! Happy Friday everyone!

I agree, this was a great challenge, thank you Mindy! I think we should start a Card-a-Day blog group, I have so enjoyed seeing all the wonderful cards from this group!

I'm only in the 50s, but I've been dragging my feet a little bit because I don't want the challenge to end! This truly has been and continues to be such a great challenge. I have seen my cardmaking greatly improve too. So if you guys decide to do the card-a-day blog group, I'm definitely in!
