Chris' Blog Challenge UPDATED WITH IMAGES LINK

[ChrisDurnan]

I need everyone to email me their challenge files so I can put them on my blog at cdurnan@visualdesignsbychris.com

However, I thought... We are running a challenge so we could post some of them here. So please add them to the thread if you'd like. I am sure everyone would like to see them. In fact I know they would because I get lots of emails about them.

This is the image from the file... and if you need more details you can find them...

I love these challenges cause everyone is sooo creative. :)

Enjoy!
Chris

They are great huh? There are some talented people that travel in the scrapbooking world. I haven't started mind yet, DD is on Fall Break this week. Hope to get it going sometime nest week. :D

[ChrisDurnan]

I got even more in the email today and will have to post them. on the blog tomorrow. I have been working so much my little one is feeling ignored. :-) So I am off shortly to go run around outside with him and ride bike. :-)

You can see the layouts (and one card) I've done so far with the challenge files at www.sayitwithink.blogspot.com

I'm not sure how to add the image directly to the forum?

[ChrisDurnan]

3 of them in one. Thank you Games!

[ChrisDurnan]

Today (Monday) is the last day I will take requests for the files to participate in the challenge.

[Photolab]

The verse is what inspired me. I got it from Verses 4 cards. I think I will make the card alittle taller next time.

[ChrisDurnan]

Love the use of the pocket!

I have a bunch more I will have to add to the slideshow. for now I must get ready for my niece's 1 year party.

Enjoy!
Chris

Kathea and Sandra - great job!!

Kathea, I enjoyed looking at your blog! Fun stuff there. I love your choice of music too!! I want to do a blog someday. It's been on my list of things to do for a year. I have a MySpace now but would rather do a blog. I just haven't had the time to sit down and learn how to do it. I may have my brother help me after the first of the year. He is a computer programmer. Right now tensions are high with the pending election. He and I differ on political opinions and the entire time would be spent with him trying to sway me to the dark side. LOL Get enough of that through his e-mails. I will just need to figure a way to make it private. My hubby doesn't really like me sharing my layouts on-line to begin with. A blog tends to be even more personal.

[memrybug]

Sorry, didn't see there was a page two. Cute card, Games. Love the pocket card with the lotto ticket, Photo Lab. What a clever idea. I'd love to get a winning lottery ticket for Christmas! The great thing about using our cutters is that we can cut things even small enough for an ATC! Cute idea, Sandra.

Chris,

I am having problems e-mailing in my submision. I sent you a Yahoo! Messenger message so you could see the message I get.

Attached is my submission.

Thanks!

I think my email is full right now because I have gotten a ton of subscriptions! Thank you for posting them!
sorry you are having difficulties with it.

Have a wonderful day. I am off to the pumpkin patch.

[Deb C]

I also thought I had a problem with the email so will try to post my cards for the October challenge here

It is the Spiderweb file with sticklers and The Turkey Pizza Guy

[ChrisDurnan]

Sorry about the email thing. My email box just got soooooo full. WOOHOO!! which is a good thing. I updated the link and am adding names to the pictures. so if you want to see more you can visit the link in the first post of this thread.

Deb C, I did get the orange card, but not the turkey. You can try and send again if you want. soo cute.

Everyone did an awesome job!
Enjoy!
Chris

[Deb C]

Will do Chris
I will try to photograph it again in the day light so the colours will show better
the card blank is sunflower and the turkey's back feathers and feet are cosmic orange but in the pic it doesn't show as bright as it is

Thanks again for the challenge

Chris is it to late to submit? I did mine, but my camera died, so I had to buy a new one. Do you want me to take it and send it even though it is late??
Lisa

[ChrisDurnan]

Absolutely! Better Late then Never!!
My email should now be better. Wew! I had so many submissions I kept crashing my email box. woohoo!! Can't wait to see it. Then I will go update the slideshow again with some I missed in all the entries. wew!

Can't wait to see it.
Enjoy!
