grammadee 7 of the layouts I posted yesterday I did at the crop last weekend. I did do 4 so far this month. I am trying to do one project a day at least. And I love your card, the colors you chose are so vibrant and fun. I will have to try that technique.

Thanks for the great challenges - and everyone's work is superb! I've loved looking at all your creations. We've been ill all week (I still am) but I have sort of taken part, incoporating challenges into a project I was asked to make. Let me see which ones... #3 - Ketchup Challenge: I picked the April Bonus and used the colours to create the paper for this tag and all the lettering. #4 - Fresh and Stale: The Baker's Twine is at least 3 years old, if not more, everything else is new this year, or even today! #7 - Nada Nope: There's no pictures #16 - Twist and Shout: I did use some string/twine/yarn.... There is a blog post about the tag, and also the Silhouette Cameo cut files are available as a free download. Occasionally I record myself using PaintShop Pro; today I opted for using my phone to video myself playing with paper. It is not hugely successful, being slightly out of focus. However, it does show how strenuous and awkward using paper is for me, and why I'll always be mostly a digital girl - and stick to easy paper projects!

I love that tag, JaneB. Having the sentiment on one slightly dislodged puzzle piece, and having that piece turned into a mini tag is a really fun idea! And DawnMcD , that card is beautiful. Here is my take on KikiPea 's "All or Nothing" sketch challenge #10. At least I started with the sketch... I used the circles on the pp and even popped the goal crease over the photo. hockey grin by Gramma Dee, on Flickr

jane, wonderful thank you card. I like the color scheme. Hope you're feeling better. grammadee, I've hit most of your layouts in the gallery, but I did not see "those heels would be hard to fill" or that "just because" card there. So I will leave you love here. Those heels is perfect. Love all of the words and the title. "Just Because" I would so fave this card. It's just perfect. Love the color. I think I've hit everyone else either here or in the gallery. oh, and DawnMcD. I liked your Hello Easter Bunny page before, but I like the changes too.

Here is my page for crystalb's Snickety snack challenge. When I visit my ds's family, we often go out to Eggstravaganza for Sunday brunch. Their food is delicious from first sight to first bite to messy face! Family Sunday 1 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr

Last night I met challenge #1 by finishing my Mothers Day cards. Today I will be working on Challenge #21, putting my completed pages in albums. As I was looking for the numbers of those challenges, I realized I had completed quite a few others that I hadnt "claimed".
I used ribbon and music embellies, and lots of tags and trine. Put some washi to work. Did some--not much, but some-- stamping. I actually tried a couple of basic page design techniques I picked up from GIS class videos.
And of corse I met the unwritten overall challenge of the weekend: I had FUN!
How did you do?

I have to go through and see what I actually did over the week. I was able to get 4 layouts in with our super busy weekend of racing and family day at DH work. I consider that amazing. I say we keep these challenges up all month and just play along. Never hurts to have tons of inspiration!
