NOV10VSNC ~ Friday Nov. 12th ~ 8 PM EST ~ Silver Lining
Title: Every Cloud Must Have a Silver Lining
Hostess: ckbythesea - Carole K.
Keyword: NOV10VSNC
Day/Date: Friday, Nov 12th
Time: 8:00pm EST
I can still hear my mom singing Ella's "Meloncholy Baby" while folding laundry . . . she sang a lot while doing mundane tasks, of which there were a lot with four kids! Maybe the lyrics "every cloud must have a silver lining" struck a chord with her, maybe I'll ask her one day.
So the idiom of these lyrics is one of hope, of optimism, and we have silver, and a lining. Your challenge is to create a card with:
1. Create a card with a theme of hope, optimism, a better tomorrow.
2. Silver: use one or more silver embellishment: ribbon, hardware, foil; whatever you�ve got!
3. Lining: decorate the inside of your card with cardstock, images, etc. (not just a sentiment).
VIEW THE GALLERY FOR THIS CHALLENGE HERE
UPLOADING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 10:00 PM EST ON Monday Nov 15th.
2. You have 45 minutes to complete the challenge.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword, NOV10VSNC, when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos. It is also highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in this chat thread to be sure your creation is seen.

Of course, the computer's on the second floor & I'm stamping in the basement, so it's good exercise too!

I'm optimistic that I can come up with something that works here! My workout isn't that great. I only have one floor to go to get to my craft room!

My craft desk is about 20 feet away, and we have no stairs! I have a laptop but no space for it in my craft area. Besides, this computer has a 23" monitor! __________________ -Carole

Here's my Autumnal Cottage Garden card.

I just filled up my coffee mug! Maybe that will help me snap out of my slump??? It could just be that I have too many ideas swirling around in my little brain! |

Had to take a break to help a friend with some ex drama, so now I'm off schedule! This is a great challenge though, so I will circle back at the end of the night and get it then. __________________ Michelle: {Blog} {Gallery}

Definitely time for re-training! I've got my BF down to a tee now when VSN is on! The rule is: I'm a-stamping, so you best take care of yourself and me while I'm preoccupied and I completely take over our room (my crafting stuff is in our bedroom as my wardrobes are in the spare, not that's it's big enough to swing a cat in mind you!). He's finally got it now and doesn't interrupt half as much as he used to! __________________ Come visit me here |
