WINNER! CONGRATS SCRAP HAPPENS!

Here is a layout by Creative Cutter Room. Just posting. Here is why....
Omgosh ladies, I am SO SORRY that this is coming in this a.m. instead of last night.. I don't know if it was operators, the Flip camera, Movie maker or some dark cloud, LOL. But between me and my two teenage children we could NOT for the life of us upload the dang video of me picking the winner. We tried from 9pm to 11pm then me and my frustration went to bed.. LOL. Me and Amanda just tried now and No go. I'll figure it out.. LOL Anyway, the winner was picked. I had put everyone's name down with a corresponding number.. I then shuffled playing cards with those numbers and picked number 5 which was RHONDA AT SCRAP HAPPENS I'm so glad everyone played. I have a consolation prize for everyone else.. Some fun heart stickers and ribbon so, Please send me your address if you'd like your stickers and ribbon. RHONDA congrats and Please email your addy at Achildinmind@aol.com

2 MORE CHALLENGES




Here are some great challenges sent in by some talented ladies.
Vampire Craftin: Altered Gum Package project is inspired by the cover of Breaking Dawn. I can't wait until November when the movie hits the big screen. Please go check out the entire project, its made out of a GUM package.. WOW. It's actually filled with little messages. Check it out.. you'll be glad you did.. it's SUCH a cute idea. Next we have a great apple tree card from bumblebee creations ! Please click on link to check out her blog and be inspired by all of Rhonda's great talent! This card, or course makes me think of the Forbidden fruit theme of the entire Twilight Saga. I love the little apple winking.. These are great ladies! I'll be back later tonight with a winner!!

"EDIBLE ART? "




YEP, the famous line by Edward to Bella when they meet in the caf in Twilight and he rolls the apple off his toe..then with the cutest face says "Bella" and then a cute corner lip smile..HEHEHE.. Anyway.. Here Dawn of Serenity Scrappers used that iconic Twilight apple to do an adorable valentine. This is one piece of fruit that is not forbidden :) so enjoy!
Dawn did these cuts on the Silhouette, the expoxy sticker and ribbon from stash. The sentiment
was done using a font from the computer through the silhouette using a red sketch pen.!

COOL ENVELOPE CARD











This is too cute. I LOVE this card. It is so much fun and easy peasy to score, fold and embelly up. It was inspired by a video I watched on YouTube - dawn5377's Channel I've just disovered this gal and I'm sure I'm going to be spending some time viewing her other vids. My card was made by using papers from the Immortal Love DCWV stack..the rose chipboard and tag are from the IL chipboard box... some stash paper and I just printed the sentiment "You are the only one who has ever touched my heart. It will always be yours" off my computer, which could have been a bit fancier..oh well LOL. But I really love this quote from Edward Cullen to Bella in Eclipse.. So sweet and it's perfect to say to any true love valentine I think.
