FEB11VSBNC ~ Saturday, February 5, 2011 ~ 12:00 PM (Noon) EST ~ Remember the 60's
Title: Remember the 60's
Hostess: Michelle, tygerpaws11
Keyword: FEB11VSBNC
Day/Date: Saturday, February 5th
Time: 12PM (Noon) EST
Remember the 60's for their wonderful colors and free spirit of creation. My favorite item that became popular in the 60's was TIE DYE. Who doesn't love a good tie dye? Who ever thought you could mix so many different colors and it actually look good???!!!
My challenge to you is grab your grooviest stamp (digi or rubber is fine) and make some tie dye loving with it. No groovy stamps? No problem! Just use those inks to make tie dye on your page... maybe a border, around a picture, a flower, or instead of patterned paper, like I did... use your groovy imagination and let the good times roll!
Not sure what tie dye is all about? In this case, tie dye is just blending of inks, at least 3 colors for this challenge. Some of my favorite products to use are Glimmer Mist, Copics (with airbrush system), Ink Pad with sponge, and the list could go on forever! The best part about tie dye is - there's no wrong way to tie dye. So, just feel the love and let the energy move you to create the best tie dyed creations around!
Are you a digi-only scrapper? Well, YOU ROCK, because I am too (ok, little biased)! Think this challenge doesn't apply to you??? YOU ARE WRONG-O! Use your brush tool and stamp away! I used Assorted Brushes 28 & 54 for my tie dye at 800px.
Not sure what a groovy stamp is? Here are two examples from our member company, GinaK, to give you some idea... So Groovy and Heartily Yours. Plus, you can see mine on my sample page attached from my friend, Tracey Malnofski of The Stamping Boutique. HAVE FUN!
Please remember that you cannot combine VSBN challenges if you wish to be eligible for any recognition, awards, and/or prizes, so what are you doing here? Get scrapping!!
1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 10:00 PM EST ON Sunday, February 13th.
2. You have 2 hours to complete the challenge. Please be sure to write your description of how you interpreted my challenge in your Upload Description.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword, FEB11VSBNC , when uploading your image; a wrong keyword means your submission may not be seen for consideration. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
It is also highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in this chat thread to be sure your card is seen.

Your layout is a very cool combination of colors! Much easier than I thought it would be to combine on digi too. I was actually thinking of getting out the alcohol inks and mixing but that would be very messy and I just got my dining room table cleaned up!

I like that stamp saying in the GinaK set example you gave...."You're Not Old, You're Retro" Too Funny!
Isn't that too funny?!?! LOVE IT!

We are SO not talking about that! It's sunny, so I'll take what I can get.

Looks like we are off to a groovy start. I have my pictures picked (even the pictures are from the 60's) but will have to come back later to make the page. I was not thinking abut VSBN this week end and have my grand kids here until later this afternoon. I will have to keep track of the time I spend because it will be done for short periods at a time.

I know, she scared me...I'm the host for the next challenge :-) Whew...time to spare! This has to be the quickest page I ever got together...not exciting but it needed to be done and is!!!
sorry I thought it was every hour, maybe I am a little too psyched LOL!
I threw out the background paper because something else evolved while I was making the page. good think I have a little more time than I thought.
Took 3 guys, 2 snow blowers and a plow to do three drives in about 6 hours.
Then my St. Bernard is about 3' tall standing on all four legs, and the snow was still a foot above her with the drifts caused next to the fence.
