New Year's Eve 8:00 Challenge ~ Un-Traditional Valentine!
 

OK! Here's our second challenge tonight! (7 minues early ;) )

Traditionally, Valentines are made with some shade of red or pink~right? Well, NOT TONIGHT!! :D
Your challenge is to make a Valentine without any reds or pinks. No Burgundy, no rose, NOTHIN' in the RED family. :D

Put your thinking caps on and lets see some fabulous out of the box Valentine creations!

Edited to say:
**Please add NYEC8 in the keyword box when uploading to the gallery on Monday for this challenge!!**

oooh, that's going to be hard!

And I thought making a card without blue was bad :) How about purple?

Purple is good...no reds or pinks! :D

Ohhh....this should be fun!

wow! off to ponder :confused: :p

Yikes... I'm stumped :) I think I need some chocolate to help me think.

Ooooph... this IS a challenge. Hmmm...

Unvday card
 

Not real happy with this! Didn't turn out like I pictured it.:???:

I think you have a very CLEVER idea. After the challenge is done, just mount it on a red card. I won't tell anyone.

I skipped the purple and went with black and gold. Gold embossed the heart from Gentle times and used French Script background. I'm pleased with it.

I've been trying to use more of my patterned papers so I used it with this one.

Ah I see I wasn't fast enough with the print pattern LOL... Here's my version... Elegant Eggplant and appricot appeal, print pattern in aa craft, sketch it in aa craft with hologram highlights embossing.

Is Blush Blossom in the red family or the orange family?

Here is mine: Heehee

Here's mine!

Cute card! I like the paper!

Here's mine...

Cute!

Oh, I like that! Nice colors!

I used purple, but to me this looks more like a wedding card than a Valentine's card. Oh, well.

I used creamy caramel and certainly celery for a valentine's card:

tholland- Great concept - a dash of red and you've nailed it.
SBinGA- Beautiful colors!
fool4scrapping- Sparkle, sparkle, sparkle!
Jody- You're a wild woman:)

Here is mine.
 

Jodylynn...... that is a supercute card. Did you use Quickutz on it?


I went with classic black and white. I need to figure out how to make it small enough to be a thumbnail, but get larger when you click on it. My scanner is making things look fuzzy.

Blue Valentine!
 

Okay, there has to be a better way to resize than using a powerful photo program, but it worked, so I'm back for another challenge!

Here's my Blue Valentine

Okay, this turned out super gaudy and not what I wanted - but it is what it is. I'm a slow stamper and would like to make comments on all of your wonderful cards but I'll have to come back later and comment.

Hi ladies! Just happened to see the post about the 8:00 challenge. How often are challenges being posted? Can anyone play?

ok, I'm having trouble uploading. It says the size limits is 640x480 and mine is 480x640 (just reversed). Do I scan it sideways?

No, just make sure that the bottom number is 480. The top number may not be the full number. For example, mine was 4?? X 480. :)

I love it! I'll be your grandmother this year... :D

Have trouble posting this one. The back to the birdies is Only Orange, although it looks red in the scan. Sorry it's sideways - it wouldn't load otherwise.

One each hour....... Yes, come and play.

Cute card! :)

No quickutz... I use simple type double alpha.

Here's mine.
What a great idea for a challenge Trudee :)

great cards everyone!

Anyone can play. A new challenge is posted each hour until midnight and then again tomorrow afternoon.

Who me? :shock: LOL

Wow, this one will be hard. OK...I'm off to think. And trying to catch up :)

Here's mine. I'm not crazy about it but it was quick. Now I have to see if I can do this thumbnail stuff.

I'm on a silver kick tonight....
