WT550 - Punc-tu-a-tion (09/24/15)
 

Hello and Happy Thursday, Friends!

It's National Punctuation Day! September 24th is the day that we celebrate the importance of proper punctuation. There are fourteen commonly used punctuation marks in American English. They are the period, question mark, exclamation point, comma, semicolon, colon, dash, hyphen, parentheses, brackets, braces, apostrophe, quotation marks, and ellipses. Whew! Can you tell that I work in a school? With this many choices and the unfathomable amount of sentiments out there, this week's gallery should be stuffed! Please use any form of punctuation of your project. I can't wait to see what you come up with.

I have attached a few of samples today. Sabrina and Lisa are helping me out with wonderful cards. Remember to use the keyword, WT550, when uploading your project so that we can all see your creation. It helps if you link it up back here too. You can view the entire gallery for this challenge HERE.

Need help linking your project? Follow these instructions!

1. Open 2 windows: One window for your project and one for this thread.
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Go to your project window. Highlight the address for your project. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.

Super-fun challenge, Toni!! I have a whole book on punctuation :mrgreen: . And its funny how even here there's a difference in terminology this side of the Atlantic: your period is a full stop to us, and quotation marks are inverted commas.

Here's mine:

Thank you for educating us about other than American English punctuation! Of course my challenge will accept any type of punctuation.

Well, I've always called these curly brackets, but thanks to your write-up I now know the correct term is braces!! Which gave me a fun word-play title :D.

This image was colored by my friend Lisa (Shoe Girl); so talented in coloring! I can't color worth a hoot... I am truly grateful that she did this for me. The bg orange is much brighter and deeper than the pic shows - but I just couldn't get it to show through this time.

Loved the challenge today! Here is my contribution. WT550 Virtuous Weeds by Dockside - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

Great idea for a challenge, Toni! I hope the little dash before the author's name on my quote counts as punctuation!
