Thanks to all the Princesses who came up with all the wonderful challenges. After changing the heating elements in the hot water heater and fixing a leaky toilet today, 6 challenges was all I have the energy for. This was the first time I've participated and it was a blast!! I have a good idea what you gals do to get ready for us - so a big Thank You!! I look forward to next month :-)
Lots of thanks and hugs to Beth and Karen and all the lovely Princesses for another fabulous VSN! The thread with all the challenges in it was a stroke of genius and made things soooo much easier!!! Y'all rock...and now I'm off to bed!
Great VSN! I love getting so much done in one night! I was only able to do eight challenges. With DH gone, four girls wanting to see what I'm doing and babysitting 2 neighbor kids made it a challenge for sure! Thanks goodness for my older girls!
I loved evrything all you princesses did tonight! Thanks!
this was so awesome. I did not have a chance to do alot of the challenges, but I loved my very first VSN. Can't wait to do it again. Thanks princesses!!!!

I did it, I ran the Anchorage Midnight Sun Marathon!!!!
This was a great VSN. I wasn't able to play along in real time, but did manage to get 7 done in the evening. Now I'm off to bed.
Thanks to everyone, it was a blast!
WOW!! What a great time. Beth and Karen--you did a terrific job!
This was my second VSN. I was totally overwhelmed last time but I really got in the groove of it this time. (Tracy--thanks for getting me hooked on this last month. Your VSN was so much fun I just had to play again.)
I only did the 4 projects from the tailgate and the first 6 from yesterday. I have each project lined up on the shelf in my stamp room. This is so great. I'm normally a CASE stamper. But VSN really pushes me to come up with my own ideas. I love knowing that I can do it if I have too. However, with all you talented stampers out there I will continue to CASE your fantastic examples.
Thank you to Karen and Beth - and all the princesses. It was hard to play (I only managed to get one done - we had company and I had 60 swaps to make for regionals). I made sure to try and comment on as many cards as I could and I look forward to playing in March!
I can't say enough to thank Karen and Beth for a truly awesome afternoon/night. Thanks also to all the princesses and to Jenn, Beate, Daven and all at SCS. I have to say that Emily & MamaK did not know what a monster they were going to create last May and I honestly think this was the best yet! I got together with my 2 stamping buddies & we had a great time.
- The start time worked great (I still ended up going to bed at 2:00 a.m. EST after uploading, clearing enough for us to have breakfast) but I completed 3 more challenges than ever before and felt much less stressed
- The challenges were pitched perfectly - challenging but fun and only having a few bonus challenges made me feel much less pressured (actually managed to eat and chat a little)
- The extra server must have done the trick as from this end at least, it all appeared to go without a single web site glitch or delay and my uploads were speedy and approved instantaneously
- It was great having all the challenges listed in 1 place and numbered sequentially
ALL IN ALL, A WONDERFUL TIME WAS HAD BY ALL - THANKS SO MUCH!!!!
These were fabulous challenges as usual!!! My friend came over last night and we stamped together, and DH needed the computer, so I couldn't scan and upload mine last night, but I'm working on it now! It was fun! Thanks!

sure was!! great challenges this time! I only did 4 of them (lucky I got to do any this time because we were BUSY yesterday!) but they had me trying some new things! Thanks hostesses and managers!
This was my first time for VSN (well except for the tailgate party, which is a great idea especially for first timers so they can figure this whole thing out!)
I had a blast!!!! And hopefully will get to do the next one!
Thank you Hostesses and Princesses!!!!

It was a fantastic VSN! I thought the locked challenge thread was sooo great! It really helped out, there was no confusion! Thanks for all the hard work! So much fun.
This was the first VSN for me and I had a great time. I normally do not stamp that quickly... so that in itself was a challenge for me. Great challenges and very smooth process. I loved it!!!

I never get all the challenges done (my brain really stops working after 10pm -- and on ET I was up til 12), but I had an absolute blast! Thank you to all the princesses and coordinators for making this a wonderful experience!
Thanks to Jen for the spreadsheet. It really helped me keep organized. I loved the locked challenge thread. No confusion. Thanks to all the hostesses for great and exciting new challenges. Thanks to everyone behind the scenes who pull everything together and make it work. I had a great time even though I had to keep laying down with a headache that decided to take up residency. It is still here this morning. Gotta go look at galleries.
Wow! this was great! My first time playing... the friday night warm ups I did without much paper near me before it started and mostly being intimidated by the time limits! I wound up finishing each early and done scanning well before the 45 mins... then changed 2 within the time! I'm a lot happier with my Saturday creations, though I woudl still be fiddling with them if we weren't limited by time!
Awesome VSN! Thanks ladies for such great challenges! I did 8! The most ever in a VSN for me. I think I could have done a couple more if I didn't have this cold. Oh well. I'll be coming back later to try some new things. Thanks Karen and Beth for such a great time! And thanks Splitcoast team!
This was my first time, and I only managed to do 2 of the challenges, but what fun this is! I'm so glad I decided to check it out and play. If I hadn't had so much craziness (had to get 2 DD's ready for 2 dances DH took them to) all around me last night I would have done a few more. THANK YOU HOSTESSES, PRINCESSES, and EVERYONE AT SCS THAT MADE THIS POSSIBLE! I will definately try to play again next time!
Thanks ladies! I had a great time doing both the tailgate and vsn. I also have to agree that the locked thread for the challenges was wonderful! So easy to keep up that way. I will definately be back again for the next one, I had a blast! And a big shout out to Daven, Jen and Beate too! Thanks for all that you do for us.
This was the first VSN I participated in because it was so organized. ***The locked thread w/a link to the discussion thread of each challenge was WONDERFUL!***
ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL THE ORGANIZERS. CAN NOT WAIT UNTIL NEXT MONTH. HERE IS TO HOPING THAT I HAVE THAT WEEKEND OFF...DO I FEEL A COLD COMING ON?? IT WAS SO EASY TO FOLLOW, EVEN FOR US FIRST TIMERS. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!
