Robkaynel I love your work and enjoyed looking at each one
Gorgeous work
sbartist - Great grid page...love what you have done with it. I find more masculine type pages really hard

Ladies y'all are doing so well!
I am fine with pinning.
Sorry I have been MIA today, we are being slammed with rain (about 10 inches thus far) so yeah.
Challenge 10: Make BINGO from the following (three across, up/down or diagonal). Let's see what you got.
black lace metal
pink doodling misting/inking
b/w photos clear arrow

And then again, I have not done Challenge 9 either.

scrapdolly - wonderful B&W page and quote. I wish to be in a hammock on the beach.
mary - great photos of the details and nice to document things that will be forgotten years from now, or even for the B&G to take in on their wedding day with all of the activity that takes place.
robkaynel - I never would have thought to use the same PP like you did. I like it, because you have a different paper in between the two. Ditto the comments on the embellishment cluster.

completely stuck for the bingo one I want to do the middle down but I can't find the right sort of clear object, I tried stamping on acetate but I might just as well stamp direct onto the pp.

Mary, Bingo almost always has a FREE space so you can use yours for the CLEAR! Can't wait to see what you make!
Great job ladies! I love all the monochromatic pages thus far!
I think BINGO may have been too hard of a challenge? You may use ONE FREE space if you need to! I don't want to discourage anyone!
CHALLENGE 11: We did a weekend challenge with LOTS of journaling, now lets do one with LITTLE journaling. On your creation you are only allowed THREE sentences or less. Let's see what you story you can tell with your pictures and paper!

Here is my monochromatic page. I am running out of mojo so I may not do BINGO or may do it another day. I have a 12 hour crop on Saturday and need to pack for that too. We will see. I did do another page today, but it doesn't fit any of the challenges I posted it was for a challenge on ACOT.  And this one is the one I did for ACOT, it was based on an ACOT sketch (so technically I did a creation a day just not this challenge LOL)  |

Crystalb I love both of your pages - your work is vibrant and a joy to look at. I like the use of bold colour sbartist what a great double page. I love the mix of photos which captures a real spirit and I love that palm tree This is mine for the bingo - I used - amongst other things - metal, misting/inking and arrows  |

scrapdolly - love your bingo page!

that will make up for the Bingo one as all the pages I'm doing for the wedding have no Journalling at all (after all they are for someone else)  |

I've managed the Bingo one and I managed to get 'clear' in as well. I will have to photograph it tomorrow, now far too dark.

crystal - WTG on your newest pages. Never thought to scrapbook a couch, it just shows up in photos - LOL. But oh the stories it could tell, if it could. Fun staches the kids are sporting for the 4th of July.
scrapdolly - love your page on the DW monorail with the gears, great embellishments for the mode of transportation. Fun misting and inking work too, if I tried to do that, it would just be a blob.
Still two challenges down and will be three by the time I leave work today. No scrapping last night, tried to figure out how to hang the art piece we picked up. I think I have it figured out, but need to make a trip to the store.

Ladies I feel like I have been neglecting you! I apologize! We have just had LOVELY weather here and been outside enjoying it today!
Scrapdolly-your monochromatic page is gorgeous! BONUS for bwg! I love the long/big title you used!
and the bingo one is so futuristic. I am not usually a fan of steam punk/metal but it really works here and you did a great job incorporating so many elements! GO YOU!
Marybuttons-you are doing so well on this wedding album! I love the title and yes I agree the details are worth so much! We often forget them! I am glad you conquered clear on bingo too! Can't wait to see it!
Robkaynel-great monochromatic page. My daughter is OBSESSED with pink so of course she squealed when she saw it and wants one just like it! LOL! Great job!
Sbartist-DON'T worry about being "behind"! NO pressure here! Sounds like you are busy now, look at how much YOU have gotten done! GO YOU! I love the tiki bar page. I love brown based pages and this one also manages to look bright and fun (hard to do with brown at least for me!) Lovely photos and awesome use of the palm tree!
I do scrap "random" things sometimes. I think it comes from being a military brat, we were never allowed to keep too many things so I want to document the ones that we have now. I would love to see how my grandparents/great grandparents homes looked like way back when. I figure maybe one day my grand kids/great grand kids will like to see what we lived like too. Is that strange?
So I am "behind" too. I will be getting the rest of the challenges done on Saturday. I have packed up most of my basic items for the crop. I am going to be working on zoo pictures, 4th of July/friend visit, last day of Kindergarten and then Project Life everyday. I will post what I get done that meet the rest of the challenges on Sunday!
Have you all had fun so far? I can't believe it is almost over! When would you like to do another one? I know the holidays is NOT a good time for me. We do a LOT in the fall so that is hectic too. Would you all like to try for maybe end of October/beginning of Nov again? Have the challenges so far been too hard, too easy, not your cup of tea? I want to make you stretch but not discourage you, does that make sense? Give me some feedback ladies, I want to make this work for us all of us!

CHALLENGE 12: I have attached THREE cards. They are NOT my cards, I have them pinned on pinterest here if you want to find the original sources card board. Your challenge is to be inspired by at least TWO of the three cards. Please tell us what inspired you and how you translated that to your creation. ETA: You are making ONE creation but you are pulling inspiration from at least TWO of the cards.    |

Bonnie, sorry ONE creation inspired by TWO of the cards. So you are making ONE thing but you have to pull inspiration from at least two cards. Does that make sense?

I've thoroughly enjoyed this fortnight's challenges and as I scrap a lot sometimes everyday especially when I have a project to do I would love for you to do another one.
When it gets a bit lighter I'll photograph the two pages I've done and today's challenge I can see how I can make two of these cards and maybe the third one as well fit the 'rings' page I have in mind to do today.
btw I have another two weddings to scrap soon, the younger sister of the bride who's book I'm doing at the moment, gets married on 30th this month and my Son & DIL have a big Celebration of their marriage on the 1st Nov. (they got married in a registry office last Nov but they want to have a full Church/Christian service and party) so I have a busy time coming up and need all the inspirations I can get to make sure that I don't repeat my pages too much
