You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
I can't believe we did the whole thing and we are still here . . .
Thanks to everyone who participated!!! Did you have fun? I sure did! If you did, please PM your hostesses and let them know. I know they will appreciate the pat on the back. Or, you can RAK them!
Tomorrow we will announce all the winners as soon as I get all of the information. And then we will select a new co-ordinator for October VSN. If you are interested in being co-ordinator for this event, please PM me (even if you already have, I may have lost the post).
A BIG special thank you to Jenn Balcer and all the SCS gang for keeping us in action tonight -- if you had fun and want to continue to have more fun, please donate (sign up for the fan club) It is only $24.95 for a whole year of fun! I thought things went smoothly tonight!
And, that is all for me . . . I am outta here for a bit. I am gonna get a drink, put my feet up and then maybe come back and comment in a bit when everyone else goes to sleep
It was fun to watch! The challenges were fun, and I got to do a couple!
Just a thought/concern. . .with the upload limitations and the gallery working going on in October, it may be a good idea to suspend VSN till November.
I'm going to bed! We'll make sure to get everything approved by noon CST. Night night!
and all the hostesses! Y'all did a fabulous job coming up with the ideas, instructions, samples! It was a BLAST and I look forward to the next one - maybe I can get a friend to come over & stamp with me next time!
I am pooped - but happy my stamp area does not look that bad (I managed to clean my stamps & put things away when I was done) what a novel idea.
Look foward to seeing everyone's creations! woohoo! I made EVERY challenge!! what an accomplishment
I just got home and could only play one round...but you I checked in to see what all of the themes were. You gals came up with some good ones this month!!!
Amanda- good job girlie. I love that you added your own examples to each challenge!!!!!!
I'm exhausted too, but made it all the way! Great job Amanda & hostesses, you came up with some awesome challenges! Thanks all for your hard work & all your efforts tonite! See ya tomorrow!

I really can't believe how many cards I made in such a short period of time. I tried to try everything. And I don't think the cards look to bad either. I don't have a lot of stamps and thought I would end up sitting a lot more challenges out. The only one I didn't try was the game piece although I did have an idea of a pocket card using a playing card, I figured by the time I actually found the playing card, I wouldn't have time to make it. Two others I tried but I had no finished product when the time ran out. Others I had a better idea but had to settle for what I could do in the time frame. This is the first time participated in an event like this and I really enjoyed it. I not only challenged my cardmaking skills but also challenged my idea of how to make a card or what to use to make a card. Thank you so much to all the hostesses and everyone else that made tonight happen.

So glad you got to participate! I am also glad it seemed to go off without a hitch! Also, you might be right on about suspending it till Nov. Let's plan on that . . .
WOO HOO, I had a blast even though I am bumped a bruised from a fall today, and a bit brain dead from studying for classes... All in all what a great way to start feeling better and taking a study break (just no one tell my profs.. ;) it will be our secret). Amanda you did a great job as did all the hostesses THANKS GUYS, you ROCK!!!
I want to thank our fab co-ordinater and our FAB SCS team player who got all of those fantastic uploads done for us.....WOOHOO for Jenn and Amanda!!I also want to thank everyone who played along tonight it was a blast!! I love all of the beauty and creative thinking going on all across the world!!
I keep trying to upload my pictures and go through the whole process including specifying the stamps, inks, papers, etc. and then when it processes it goes to a screen that says that the server may be busy or broken. Are my uploads going through or do I have a problem. This is my first time uploading and I've tried two different times and it has happened. By the way...this was my first VSN...do you still need money for postage? For the next VSN I'll be sure to send some goodies!!
THANKS, AMANDA AND JENN!! (shouting from the rooftop)
You guys gave us a great night of fun. Thanks for letting me be a hostess, too.
Sleep well (I know I will)!
G'night everyone! Awesome cards! I will wait till tomorrow to comment on all of them! I am officially pooped! Thanks Amanda and all of the hostesses! You are all awesome!
That was a blast! Now I should sleep. Even though my hubbie scanned all my creations for me, I'll upload tomorrow. 4+ hours stamping at Jennie's (Joosterhse) this morning followed by VSN - I can't see straight!
Skipping October is logical, but since I'll have a newborn in November, this will be my last VSN for a while.
Thank you ladies for all your hard work and creative challenges.
It's 1:31 am exactly right now and I can't believe I'm still up, but I wouldn't of missed a minute of it! Thanks so much for everything Amanda and for choosing me to be a hostess! Thanks to all that participated in the challenges as well, if it weren't for you we wouldn't be here! It was awesome and I had a blast! Looking foward to November!

Hi Jennifer, I'm still uploading; I got a msg once that said Web Site not responding, but I think they'll still be there; I would not try to upload each one again; I'd wait & see for a while.

I had much fun! I'm trying to get caught up with my uploading but now I can't remember which ones I've posted on the thread and which ones I haven't!! Do you think I might be tired?!?!?
Great job Amanda and all the Hostesses. I managed to finish 10 out of 13 challenges and a good plan to finish two more. The nylon stocking was a no show for me. I did get one extra card made...yipee. I can't upload any as I don't ave a scanner or a digital camera program. It was fun just trying to
keep up with the challenges, and of course remembering to refresh so I saw the challenge in time to make it. I am looking forward to the next VSN.
Wow, my first VSN is over and I had so much fun! Thanks so much for welcoming the newbies and thanks hostesses for the excellent ideas and a big thanks to Amanda for coordinating Sept. VSN. Another thanks to all the SCS people behind the scenes helping make VSN a success. It was so fun and I will definitely be back next month!
thans to all who hosted and participated and uploaded!!! I had a blast as always. it was soooo worth staying up for even thoug I am sick. I can always catch up on my sleep tomorrow right?? I just finished uploading and am off to bed now. thanks again for a wonderful night of creating
Michelle
That was awesome! It is 1:01 am and I am revved up!!! No way will sleep come easy tonight. I am going to dream about stamps, and running from my stamp room to the kitchen to get on the computer!!! I had several "near" break-neck experiences tonight and still came out unscathed! Yee-Haw!!! (from TEXAS) and yes... I still have all 10 fingers after that razor blade cutting I did. ;)
You guys rock! Have a happy night! Can't wait till next time....
Going to fold laundry or something... try to get my mind to slow down.
Ok, it's 2:23 am; It's been a very long day, Fun but long! Had a blast with you guys here tonite; I have to finish uploading my last 3 in the am (I mean later in the am!) then start commenting! Good night all.

That was WAY fun! I was kind of sad that I had to dissappear for a couple of hours, but I still managed to do 6 of the challenges! I loved the challenges and I love having that many cards done at the end of the night.
Thanks all!
