TLC285 ~ Rebus ~ (08/09/10)

[Toy]

Hello Friends!

I am posting a little early tonight as we've had internet issues today. A big storm blew through here last night and both our cable and internet are wonky still. I also know that many of you are sending your kiddles off to school tomorrow. I have one more week til mine are gone. Having the house to myself again is going to be strange!

~~ Rebus~~

I {heart} this challenge and I hope you do, too! Most people know what a rebus is, but in case you don�t, a rebus is defined as: A representation of words in the form of pictures or symbols, often presented as a puzzle. Your challenge today is to create a rebus on your card. One of my favorite bloggers and SCS peeps, Frances Byrne (StampOwl) does a rebus feature on her blog. You might find these helpful when you are designing your card/project! I also found this site that has a bunch of rebus rhymes.

Here�s my sample:

~ U R the {Apple} of my�. ~

Remember, when uploading to use the keyword TLC285 (no spaces)

You can find the entire TLC gallery HERE.

Now go get creative!

Interesting challenge, Holly. I'll have to think about this one awhile.

[StampOwl]

Awesome challenge Holly! Of course when I found out about today's challenge I just had to play along ... I dusted off a very old Rebus Sentiment stamp I have had for ages.

Here's my card.

You must have a very different schedule in US than Canada to be sending your kids back to school already! Ours (Canada) don't go back for about 4 weeks. This looks like fun.
Cheers, Elizabeth

Here's my card for this challenge Holly. Great challenge, you really had me scrambling for ideas here. LOL
We go back to school the week of the 23rd in this part of Ohio.

Pretty much the same in Ireland, too.
I'll have to think hard about this one, Holly. I'll hope to get to play today, but there's work and housework to get through first, and a dinner guest tonight. I like this sort of thing. My standard is Thank You with a sheep for the You; but I don't need any more thank-you cards right now, so I'll have to go to the drawing board.

A "thinker" challenge, Holly! But that's what challenges are supposed to be! : ) Mine is VERY simple.

I finally figured out how to upload my cards to the challenge thread. Is all I had to do was look in the right place to get the instructions! It is amazing how much information is on Split Coast Stampers. This challenge was ...well, challenging!

Here is my card: Rebus Inspired by The Big Bang Theory

This was a little tough, but that's why it's called a challenge right?

[alwspoon]

Okay, here is my card. Wish I could post these earlier, but I have a two y.o. and five y.o and can't work on them til after they go to bed!! I confess, I had to look up the meaning of rebus. :oops:

Over the Rainbow

[A-M]

I decided as I do rebusing with Frances Byrne that I would make a quick card for this challenge.
I could not find what gallery to put it in so it is my own gallery: TLC285 - Rebus Card by A-M - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers
