AUG08VSNMINIL - Oh, the Cards You'll Create! ~ July 25th ~ 8:00 PM CST
PLEASE NOTE - THIS CHALLENGE WAS FROM JULY!!!! THIS IS NOT AN AUGUST CHALLENGE!!!
Book Title: Oh, the Cards You'll Create!
Author: mandella17 (Mandy)
Keyword: AUG08VSNMINIL
Date/Time: Friday, July 25, 2008 at 8 PM CST
Oh, the cards you'll create, when you dare to defy,
the usual, the normal - Common to the eye.
Your challenge is this - use Dr. Seuss' funky style
To create something fanciful, I promise it's worthwhile!
So to your stamps you must go- use buttons, use ribbon, use brads or beads,
Let your imagination run wild - just let it concede!
But remember, dear friends, this fun is confined,
to just a few dates and times, please keep all this in mind:
1. You have 45 minutes to create your card using Dr. Seuss as the inspiration. It could be fun color schemes, funky embellishments, unique images, whatever Dr. Seuss inspires you to do!
2. Please use the keyword so your card will go in this challenge's gallery. But be sure to post a link back here so we know you've played!
3. If you don't have time right now to take this challenge, you still have two weeks to play and post! All creations must be posted by August 8!
This looks SO fun, Mandy! I'm really hoping I get to play tonight!

Now that I see the card loaded I want to say it looks better in real life...doesn't have the greenish tint. "Sam-I-Am" must be trying to squeeze in here!!

I had a great time with this challenge...and for those of you wondering, Mandella did share a bit of chocolate with me after I stole the bag!
You'll have to take a look at the description in this card...there's a story of Mandella's childhood in it. Just to let you know she's always been like this!! LOL!!
Thanks for a great challenge, Mandy!! Love ya kiddo!
