Musical Card Challenge #29 Hint: John Deere
 
Ladies, I would like to thank all of you that participated in last week's Musical Challenge - Country Strong. I know it's getting to be nicer outside and people aren't wanting to stay inside. However, I appreciate you staying inside to play this challenge with me. Remember, if you have any ideas on making these challenges better, please pm me. I want to hear your ideas. Or if you would like to request a song to use as our inspiration, you should also pm me.

For this week's challenge; you can win prizes. For every person you bring to the challenge, that posts a card, you and your friend will get a prize. Remember the more the merrier.

Okay, I am guessing you want to know who won last week's cards. The winner of the "Country Strong" cards is: Drumroll please: Anganny

Way to go Anganny Congrats!!! I have an address on file for you. However, if you would like them to be sent somewhere different please pm me the address. To those of you that plan on sending Anganny your card please pm me for her address.

For the next couple of week's we are going to hold a contest within our Musical Card Challenge. The contest is to come up with a name for our weekly card winner. I don't like using the word recipient all the time. I would like something unique and fun to call our weekly winner. So, pm me with your suggestions. The winner will get a prize.

Ladies, let's keep in mind that we all love it when we see comments under our cards. So please let's all try to leave love under everyone's creations.

Woo Hoo It's time to announce this week's song. Is everybody ready?? Here we go. This week's song is:

"Wildflower"by: JaneDear Girls
Here are a few of the lyrics You can listen to the song by clicking on the title.

Hey, I'm a wild flower growin' in the sunshine,
Soakin' up the way of life I was raised in.
Runnin' barefoot, bloomin' in a summer shower,
Ponytail dancin', I can't help it,
I-I'm a wildflower.


If you are new to the challenge this is how it works. Each Saturday I choose a song. I then ask you to make a card that is inspired by the chosen song. Then post your card here in the forum and we can leave our comments and chat about it. Then next Saturday I will put everyone's name that made a card for this challenge into a drawing. The winner will be the recipient of the cards made for this challenge. Therefore I will ask you to consider sending your card to whomever is the lucky recipient. However, it is NOT mandatory that you send your card out. You may use it for whatever you wish.

Also, please remember in order to have your name put in the drawing you MUST post your card here in the forum before next Saturday.

Please use the keyword: DDMCC29

HAPPY CREATING!!!!

My Wildflower Card

Have Fun!!!!

Thank you! I have had that set for awhile and never used it, so it was good that I to use another new set (I used a couple other new ones for the VSN Challenges). Awww.. the wheelbarrow woulda been cute!

DellsDani 05-23-2011 05:44 AM

Hello Cricket. Welcome to the musical challenge. Wow, your card really says "Wildflowers". I love it!!!! Did you find us on your own or did someone invite you? The reason I ask is because you get a prize as a new comer and if someone invited you, they get a prize too. So, if you could, pm me your address and I will get your prize sent out. And if someone did invite you please give me their name as well so I can send their prize out too. I too love this song so I am glad it inspired you to make such a beautiful creation. I do hope you will come and play again. Your card fits the song perfectly. Very well done!!!!

You did a fine job in welcoming Cricket. Thank you. You also did a great job on your card. You truly are getting very good at this!!! You rock girl!!!

Suzy800 05-23-2011 01:29 PM

Hello Jamie!! Welcome to the song challenge. We have alot of fun here and we just try to keep one step ahead of Dani and her leashes......she like to put those on us if we start to get out of hand in here. tee hee.

I decided to start using some of the digi stamps I keep finding for free and downloading. This is one I've had for a while but have never used. I also tryied to color it in with my watercolor pencils, which I've also had for a while, but I haven't used them just too much yet cause I'm still learning how they work. I'm not totally happy with the results, but I am still learning and it will only get better with practice......right?!?!?!! Any feedback or tips on how to use them would be great is there's a watercolor pencil guru out there!

Here is my card.

stampmontana 05-23-2011 03:36 PM

Dani, Lynn, Jamie,Yvonne,

You have all created wonderful cards for the challenge! I will be finishing mine tonight.

I spent the day exercising, doin some errands and then in the yard at my Mom's planting some flowers for her. I love flowers and digging in the dirt.:D

It has been a great day. I will be playing with the paper and stamps tonight.

anganny 05-24-2011 02:42 AM

DellsDani 05-24-2011 05:11 AM

Wow, y'all are making some beautiful cards. This was a great song to choose. I see y'all getting inspired in an awesome way with this song. Great job ladies. I can't wait to see what the rest of you create. Oh and Jaime, the only way you will end up on a leash is if you start running amuck with FM and Suzy. See Suzy left that part out. lol...We do have a lot of fun with each other. I am glad you joined us.

FMcrafter 05-24-2011 10:11 AM

It's bad enough I wake up to my place shaking...The board in their infinite wisdon has place a storage box (think the kind on a semi) beside me...EFFECTIVELY blocking me into my car spot!

Ok you lost me. Your place is shaking? What board? A contractor took you to the bank to change a ten? You needed to give who your info? I'm guessin since you are all over the place with this you are upset. Is this right?

FMcrafter 05-25-2011 09:28 AM

I live in a small condo/townhouse. Rightbeside me they dropped a big storage contatiner which shook the house. The storage contatiner effectively blocked my into my parking spot. With the contractor's help I finally managed to get out of my spot after about 6 tries. The board of directors for the condo corp are continually putting stuff in front of my parking spot effectively blocking me in. This has been going on for about 11 year. And I HATE them all

Ahhh that explains the being upset. I would be too. I would be complaining to someone. That's just crazy that you have to go thru all of that to get your car out.

DellsDani 05-26-2011 06:45 AM

Good morning. Wow as I started typing this week's song came on. Weird. lol....anyway...how is everyone doing? It is sunny here today so I think I will do my errands. Then hopefully I will get some stamping time in. DH is working on the pourch so I should be good to have some me time. This could change depending on what he is doing out there. The other day I thought the same thing and then he came in and said he couldn't go any furthur so he wanted to go do something together. So I should hush and get ta gettin while I can. I hope everyone has a great day.

stampmontana 05-26-2011 08:59 AM

Hi everyone,

I hope you are all enjoying your day. It is very cloudy here with rain expected. It rained a lot during the night. Yesterday was beautiful, but today will be in the 50's.

I guess it will be great for stamping.:D

I finished my card yesterday and here it is-

Wildflower- DDMCC29 by stampmontana - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

Now I am going to make my card for the Alphabet challenge this afternoon and work on some cards for swaps.

DellsDani 05-26-2011 06:09 PM

Hi Montana, I left love for your card. I hope everyone enjoyed their day. Montana are you getting lots of rain? Like flooding?? I know there have been so many places either putting up with floods or tornados. My prayers for those folks. Well, I did my errands, cleaned some windows, did the laundry, made meatloaf for dinner and now that I finally have time to stamp, I am tired. Man I hate when that happens. Oh well, tomorrow I am going to pay bills and watch the grandchildren once they are out of school so maybe I can get some stamping done tomorrow. We shall see. I hope everyone has a great night.

stampmontana 05-27-2011 01:37 PM

Hi Dani,

Thanks for the comments on my card. I love purple, too, especially when making cards. My favorite color has always been blue.


We do have some flooding along the river here and in other places in our state, but I don't think it is as major as some states. In most of the areas of western Montana the snowfall during the past winter was twice the average, so there is a lot of snow to melt and flow down the rivers. The warm days are just getting started. Of course it is good to have the snow in the winter so hopefully the summer won't have a bad wildfire season.


I hope you have a good weekend and time to do some stamping.
