Calendar Girls October - It's all about the numbers!

Hello everyone! It's the 28th and time to reveal our Calendar Girls challenge of the month cards!

Miss October, aka Tami gave us the following challenge:

We are all about the month of October! I have three little challenges for the girls this month.

It is the tenth month of the year, so please have exactly ten ( 10 ) items on your card. No more, no less! The ten items do not include your card base. Your image stamped on a piece of card stock is counted as one item.

Our due date is the 28th. So, that is going to require two ( 2 ) circles needed on each card and a minimum of eight ( 8 ) different colors.

Are you scared yet?! LOL Start taking a peek….there are a lot of different elements and colors on our cards! I am so looking forward to what you all create, as I do each month.

I love my Calendar Girls!

Tami (Miss October)

So, in a nutshell, requirements are:

10 items, no more, no less (this includes all layers and embellishments, but not the base layer)
2 circles
8 different colors

Here is my card:

I met the requirements with the following:

10 items = 7 paper layers, 1 ribbon, 2 brads
2 circles = 2 brads
8 different colors = brown, green, pink, yellow, red, blue, cream and black

I hope you like it and I hope I did Tami proud by following her rules ☺

Thanks for stopping by!

Trees for the Forest Ranger

Good morning!

It's duel day, the 15th of the month. The Divas and Dazzlers are at it again....but this month it's a bit different. Normally, the Dazzlers receive card kits from the hostess to create cards with a similar theme as the Divas. This month there was no Diva, so our very own Dazzler Melina came up with a theme all on her own for both teams. Instead of creating kits and mailing to 15 people she sent gave us the following challenge:

Hello Dazzlers!

My challenge to you for the month of October is to create a card with the theme of Trees and to include patterned paper somewhere on your creation.

I can't wait to see what you come up with! I hope this is okay with everyone that you are receiving a challenge instead of a "full on" kit. I hope to have a partner the next time my turn comes around.

The Divas are getting a challenge also with a different theme. It's a little mystery as to what each team will be making.

There was a twist to this challenge also......we are making these cards in honor of our leaders Jeanette and Kelly! We were also asked to give a shout out to these ladies.

Jeanette is the leader of the Dazzlers, and she is an inspiration to everyone. She is always happy, has a great attitude, is very encouraging and a great friend. I know that if I ever have a problem, or a question no matter how small, I can always go to her. She is always there for all of us! Thank you Jeanette!

Now.....here is my card.

And in true Jeanette style, I even did the inside:

Oh, and one more thing.....we are all going to mail our cards to Jeanette (Dazzlers) and Kelly (Divas). They don't know that part yet, but we all want to show them our appreciation! Thank you ladies, for all you do!

Thank you for stopping by!

Unidentified Image - Card Reveal!

Hi everyone!

Today is the day we reveal the cards we made for the Unidentified Image Swap on SCS.

I am the hostess for this round and picked an image from MFT - Miss You a Latte. The images were sent to everyone in the swap to create cards with the papers and embellishments of their choosing. It has been so much fun opening the packages as they have been delivered to see what great creations are inside!

This is one talented group of ladies, and that is putting it mildly! Everyone has their own style and tons of creativity! I love what everyone has created so far (I am still waiting for a few packages)!

Here is my card......and since this was my very first time hostessing, I decided to make one for each and every one of the ladies! I even remembered to make one for myself!

Thanks for stopping in and looking!
