I've got 12 done but 9 uploaded so far and I am sooooo sleepy! Remind me not to work on Saturday next VSN! I've also got company tomorrow and needless to say, I am not ready! There were some really great challenges this time though and I had a blast, as always! You ladies/pixies did a fabulous job! Thank to you all and to all a good night!

I got 11 done last night and tonight and I have the clipboard set aside for early tomorrow morning when it is quiet with no DISTRACTIONS! Off to clean up the messy stamp table and set out the clipboard and the modgepodge for tomorrow morning! That will make 12 of the 16 challenges. There are 2 more I wanted to get to, but there's no way I'm going to do a decent job on them now and I won't have time in the morning with church... (upload cut-off is noon my time!) Oh well! If DH had been GONE, I probably would have gotten 14 total. 2 of them just didn't get my creativity flowing, but you can't expect them all to hit home with EVERYONE!
AWESOME JOB by *ALL* the pixies!!!!!!

Woohoo once I got started, I got 12 done. I had a hard time with some of them in the beginning...........Thanks ladies for all you did to pull this off tonight. It is always a great time. I had my family walking through my work area to see what the next challenge was and what the last card looked like! LOL

I can't keep up with all of you (I did 6 tonight)! I might attempt more in the morning-there are so many great challenges. I am proud, though. I was able to think and actually function in the allotted time!
So far I only have 8 done since we had my kids' bday party here today til late. Not sure I'm gonna get anymore done before church tomorrow. But I loved reading all the challenges even if I didn't get them done. Thanks for all the hard work Queen Mums and fellow pixies!
I got one done last night and 6 today. Had to stop periodically for things like cats-to-the-vet, food, potty breaks. But I plan to do some first thing tomorrow morning too. This was the first VSN I've really participated in and LOVE it!! Thank you ALL sooooo much for all your hard work and creative ideas. I've been case-ing things for the last year, it was great to finally do something original. I can't wait till the next one!!
I have six or seven completed but none of those have been uploaded yet. Got a later start today, my gf was having a party for both of her children today and we stayed for about 4+ hours...It was sort of combined with a cook-out, and the adults did some archery along with the kiddo's. It was a fabulous day so I didn't mind catching up here late...I'm just so happy I was able to play at all.
THANKS SO MUCH TO ALL the PIXIE'S and the AWESOME COORDINTOR'S! YOU ALL ROCK!
Oh yeah...can I count my samples as two more done!!! LOL ;) :rolleyes: :-D
I had SO MUCH FUN!!!!! I will have to get my mom to come over next time to play with me. I learned how to use some things that I have had around for a while and haven't thought of any good ways to use the (beads, glitter, brayer, etc.). I really can't wait for the next one!!!!!
Well I've only gotten 4 done so far. :( Have been living at the football field today so haven't got to stamp. But its only about 10pm so I think that's early enough to make a couple more. Was so hoping to do more but missing my son's football game today would have been in poor form I guess. lol
So far, I only have one done :-(
I was looking so forward to the VSN again, but had other obligations (grrr) I came home one hour ago and made the buckle card, but will upload it tomorrow and hopefully I can make another one tomorrow morning. right now, I am about to pass out, hmmm its 1:30 am hehe, so I guess get up early. Till what time can we still upload?
thanks
I did all 16; I think there were two that I just got done in time - literally and then one the site got wonky with the upload so it was uploaded a couple minutes late. I loved all of them - even ones that I wouldn't usually care to do - you girls did a fantastic job! You were supportive, creative and I noticed you commented just about as fast as they were posted! It was a great VSN and ya did good! Thanks so much for all your time and efforts - now to rest up for the next one! Hope I don't fall asleep in church!

I did 8 challenges...I really enjoyed this VSN...it was my second time participating. I love being introduced to new techniques and have learned so much from partipating. Great job!
Only could squeeze in 3. But it was so fun! I think I will do the pocket one later. I was so impressed with the variety of challenges, and I just filed my clipboard for a later project (I am so excited to actually have one!).
I am sure there will be a thank you thread, but thanks again to the moderators and hostesses for all of your work to make so many of us happily stamping this weekend :-D
It's official.... I got 12 done as I just uploaded my clipboard. This is my second REAL participation in VSN, although I did play for a few challenges in May. My first one was in March and I have missed all the others! I wish we had a calendar for these further in advance so I could keep the dates free! LOL! Yeah, you see where MY priorities are.... LOL!
Super mega sparkly thanks to all the Pixies for a ROCKIN VSN!!!!!
I had such a great time - didn't do much other than stamp this weekend but I had a blast. Thanks to all the coordinators, pixies and to all at SCS - uploading was a dream.
BTW, I think posting challenges on the hour was a great idea - my kitchen still looks like a bomb hit it but I was much less stressed and it was easy to rember when things would be posted.
I completed all of them but one, as I forgot to pick up a clip board. This was the first time that I tried to do them all and I had a great time. Thanks for all the hard work that was put into putting this together. You are the best. THANKS
I only got 5 done from last night, but I had gone to a friend's house to stamp with her and some other friends so that was just a blast! Missed out on Friday night and some of Saturday, but I think I'll be checking them all out and seeing if I can come up with something for each of them even if it is after the fact.
This was the first VSN I took part in for awhile. It was GREAT to get back into it.

I was able to get 5 done and DGD did three kids challenges - thank you so much for those - it was a great activity and I think I have now created a monster - she wants to put glitter on everything and bake cookies today! She's still talking about the Krispie Treats!!
I did 8. I only did 3 yesterday and this morning I woke up and told my DH that he had to watch the kids. I was shutting myself up in the room and stamping. He said o.k.! So I got 5 more done. Thanks so much for the fun ladies!:mrgreen:

My first VSN and I did 11 challenges! And I was wiped last night so I uploaded a bunch of them today...I hope that was OK I just realized it's Sunday! It was great, thank you pixies for a fab time!
I did ONE, count them, ONE card but it is by far the funniest card I have ever made!!! Now I must decided which of my crazy nurse friends I will send it to!!!
I can't believe what great cards people can do in just 45 minutes!! AMAZING!!

Woohoo - I managed to get 10 done. My muse wasn't really with me last night, so I only got a few done, but I was able to get a few more done today that I really like!
ETA: And some challenges I couldn't do because all my scrap stuff is packed up so I didn't have access to all the stuff I normally do.
Last night, I voted for the category with 5. But I just squeaked in another one. I was feeling guilty. :rolleyes: OK... Now I need to go grade papers and do some laundry before I feel even more guilty. :p
Yay for the Sunday extension! I was able to get two more done today bringing my total up to 9. Whee! I can't imagine doing ALL of the challenges. I was sooo tired last night and only got 6 done. Gee, I'm such a VSN wuss. I'll definitely have to build up my stamina before the next VSN!! This has been a blast. I plan to catch up on the threads and posts today!! Thanks sooo much to all the Pixies!!!!
I did 15. Managed to squeeze in the last two today. The only one I just couldn't seem to tackle was the clipboard. All great challenges. Thanks a bunch, ladies.
It was my first VSN so I pushed and did them all. There were a couple where I just couldn't get going, went in one direction, DH suggested something else and I went back to plan A at the last minute! Also I know which stamp sets I *really* need. I had to improvise and print bits off the internet. But hey, I'm quite pleased with what I did and got caught up on the 2 I missed during dinner/bathtime/bedtime after the final challenge. Thanks for a really fun couple of days.
I was able to get 12 done but was hoping to get them all. DD had a dinner dance last night and of course we had to take pictures, grandma had to come visit to see the gorgeous dress she purchased -- so I printed out all the challenges I missed hoping to do them today! Didn't happen I'm afraid to say, while I sit here in my easy chair trying to recuperate from the last 2 nights! What a fabulous VSN.
