Made it to Monday..
Well It's Monday. I don't have a file I can offer today. I am working through some family things, health issues. So I might be a bit Hit or Miss as my friend Lori would say. Have to take care of our loved ones. More as soon as I can. Enjoy! Chris

Card Challenge for October 2007
In honor of National Card Making Day, here is a card challenge. Presented by Lori and Chris for the members of Paperthreads Forum and the visitors to our blogs. This challenge is for a card made from one of our files. You do not have to use a pre-existing card file, but just one of our files to create a card of any variety. You can enter as many card as you'd like in the challenge. And the members of the Paperthread Forum will get to vote on it for a few short days and the top three winners will receive files of their choice of either Lori's or Chris's. This is the first time we have tried a joint challenge. If it goes well, we hope there will be more in the future.
Thank you for participating!

Curly Pumpkin Vines..
PASSWORD PROBLEMS> PLEASE SEE BOTTOM.
Okay ... I have to sneak in one more Halloween file I had on my computer. It is a Page Kit. So squares and the pumpkin and the words are all included in this file. Accept for the outer 12 inch page. I hope some can use it. This is a Terms Restricted File. Downloading this is an agreement to my Terms of Use. This download link is no longer available, but the file will be available for purchase at Paperthreads soon.
I love the way the green curlies on the Pumpkin Vines wrap up tight like ribbon on a present. So that is why I started working on this file. And I thought they have quick pages for Digital Scrapbooking. So I have bunch of Cut Quick Page files put together for those who just want to go with it and cut. I will be uploading them to the store in the next few days.
Enjoy!
Chris

********************************
PLEASE READ FOR PROBLEMS WITH PASSWORD
Please be aware this post was uploaded before the new password went out and is the old password still. I was just trying to be organized and send one email with the password change, the sale information, and the card challenge details.
Woohooo! Made it to Friday
I have a bunch of files to convert today. So hopefully later today I can get a download up. But for now. here are a few more presents I received in the email box. Love them.
**This one is from, Lori N., 2007 Wishblading Well Design Team Member. Lori does awesome work and is superrrrr helpful. And the gals at the Wishblading Well are super nice.. Hi to Kelly and Tiffani over there!! (waving Hi!)
**This is from the At The Track file at the store. This is an older file of mine. So when I got it I was super pleased. Made me think I need to revisit some of those older files in my upcoming sales. I am usually focused on what I am working on right now!! This one is awesome. love the layout! Thank you Lori for sharing.
**And some good news.. I think.. I have seen it listed in a few places, but it is my understanding that Wishblade will have a new update on their website for the blue wishblade and Vista. Here is the link to their Updates page. In case this was it, I thought I should pass the Link on to those who may need it. Just for future checks.
**
Well I just heard an UH-OH from the Kitchen so I better add more later.
Enjoy!
Chris
