You're better women than me! I have been gazing at these beauties for a couple hours now and I cannot even remotely narrow it down to 10. Heck, there are 70 something entries and i love them all.. absolutely all!
I have to share this link. As far as I can tell she didn't post it here. She is only 14 (just had her first workshop, has her own stamping area, has more stamps than me, need I go on?? ;) ) and just signed onto SCS this weekend and did the challenge!! Please help me welcome Hannah!
Jen this was so fun. Thank you for a needed diversion. In his first football game of the season this weekend, my DS got his collar bone broken. It has been a terrible weekend. This kid lives for football... has been in personal training for it for several months. Has gone to quarterback camps and fitness camps, etc. etc.. He is devastated. And of course so is his mom. Stamping took my blues away. Now to tend to him again with renewed energy.
Awww Susan; I'm sorry to hear that about your poor son; I hope he's not in too much pain!

Well, I have a bunch of stuff done and most of my sheet of paper used, but unfortunately, I must leave (family matter) and will not be able to get finished and uploaded before the time is up. :(
I hope all is well. Make sure you upload what you have finished. I really love your creations!

Oh no, I'm so sorry he got hurt and for his disappointment too, poor guy! Give him a big hug from all of us virtual girls !
Wowzers Jen! This was such a success! I've browsed a few of the "collections" and they are all awesome (the site keeps locking up, but I promise to view the rest!)! I don't envy you a bit, having to choose!
We went away for the holiday weekend, so I didn't get to participate in your contest, but I may just do the challenge during the week anyway.
You ROCK Jen! Another awesome holiday challenge!!!
Well, I'm late, but I'm done. It has taken me forever (like 3 hours) to upload all the individual pictures. I ended up with 14 items. I did 7 cards, a candle, post it note holder, mini notebook, bag topper, placecard and 2 tags. Here are my links:

Oh that is soo disappointing and what a nasty injury to have! Poor guy, best of luck keeping him upbeat and hope it heals quickly!
First - I wanted to thank Jen for an awesome challenge! I sparingly participate in the challenges and am so glad that I did this one. I unfortunately didn't get things finished by the deadline, but nonetheless had a blast doing this!! So, I've finished and wanted to add my items here. I plan to do this more often when I need gifts - great way to coordinate items and get a gift done moderately quickly.
Just got back from a couple of days away and was so surprised by all the additional awesome entries into this challenge. I see poor Jen was able to narrow the list down... I never could have done it. Awesome job, Jen and super awesome challenge!! You pushed me to not only use paper, but do a OSW - my first this challenge. You can bet I'll be doing stuff like this again - it was a blast!! Thanks!! Awesome stuff everyone - I'm in awe!! Off to vote now....
Ok - I was only able to comment on group photos, but know that everyone did an awesome job on all their creations!!
I need to get to bed, as I am done to under 4 hours of sleep before work now!! YIKES!! I had to get through all of these though....addicting!! Also my laptop battery is going dead.
Great job everyone!! Thanks so much Jen for a spectacular challenge - I had a great time doing this and actually stamped quite a bit (first time in awhile)!! Thanks for pushing us out of our norm!!

MY DD and I picked our fav. 10 while we were waiting for the poll, and none of the ones we picked were in Jami and Jen's 10 LOL...Isn't it funny how everyone sees things just a little bit differently?! KWIM, Just says that there is BEAUTY in EVERYTHING!
I THINK EVERYONE'S creations are superb! they are all colorful and coordinated and would make devine gifts!
I may just do another set during the week!
AGAIN, big THANKS to JEN and JAMI for making me see my 12 X 12 Paper for MORE than just SCRAPBOOKING (which is what I do far more of than stamping) I really did surprise myself.
Wow, wonderful entries by everyone! Everyone did such an awesome job!
Thanks again for the great challenge!!
I have a question - I was very sad this morning to log on and find all my photos and the comments people had made on them gone from my gallery, and the links no longer work. This is like the fourth time this has happened to me. Does anyone know why this happens?
Hope you all have a wonderful day and congratulations on your new creations!!
A whole lot of awesome entries -- too bad everyone can't be winners! I tried to comment on everyone's group photo. Hope I didn't miss anyone. Great challenge, Jen.

Before you upload your photos are you giving them unique file names on your computer? The names given automatically by your computer are often common (i.e. Picture01 or something like that) and uploads get deleted when the gallery system scans daily for duplicates. It doesn't matter what you title your upload as you do it here, just what the file name on your computer is at home. Does that make sense? If that is not the problem then you should post a question in the Site Questions and Suggestions Forum.
Jen,
Thank you for such a creative challenge. It was perfect for the Labor Day weekend. I was not able to get started on the challenge until Labor Day afternoon, but I worked on it happily until after midnight. I was still a little bleery eyed this morning when I tried to use my digital camera. Kind of flashed out all the colors, but I had such a good time doing this challenge. Thanks again for all the time and effort you put into these challenges for us all. I very much appreciate all that you do for us.
Wendy

I didn't see this challenge until Monday night, but I had already made the covered notebook for a Yoga Teacher Training Class I'm taking this week, so I used the rest of the paper from that one sheet to complete the challenge. I've had that photo pocket tote on my to do list forever. I'm really excited to have it done. When I purchased this background paper I saw these cool glittery chipboard letter that I almost bought, because they were soooo cool. But the colors weren't right for the paper and I thought, I have Iridescent Ice EP, I can make my own in any color ink I want. So I used my Headline Alphabet set and some chipboard and Voila! Enjoy!
For so many of you this was your FIRST EVER challenge. All I can say is you are a bunch of brave, creative, awesome stampers. I have enjoyed looking at all the wonderful projects. I don't know how you can do so much in a day or two....it would take me a week or more. I am IMPRESSED with all of them!!!!
