"the Gift" QMC file & Anniversary Celebration Days

The link party is happening stil til Wednesday. Scroll down to the post before this one or Click Here! Look forward to anything anniversary you have party celebration! Recipe, diecut, photo. lots of fun. And we are already hopping in the forum as Challenges are starting to load for our Anniversary Celebration day! Jump on in.

The Gift QMC is in the forum and the next file uploaded was this file for a clothespin picture board. An easy way to switch out new photos and I also included the title for God-children. so fun.

I had this wooden plaque in my stash and some mini clothespins. So I cut the vinyl. Added some rubons and glued the clothespins on with monkey glue. I love this stuff. However, I looked away to chat with my helper this week while school was on break and woops. To much monkey glue. The clothespin slid off and glued itself to the counter. I turned around and couldn't figure out what happened to the clothespin. Only to find it glued to the counter top. Great conversation piece? I pondered it for a bit and giggled while I did my best to pry it off the counter. Yes, be careful with the monkey glue. It works!

The file uploaded in the QMC forum. I'd love to see what you come up with.  

On to life...
This past weekend, I got to spend some wonderful time with my hubby and son.We enjoyed our day of watching horses and then hit the rodeo. A hometown rodeo with lots of fun. We spend alot of time in the little town and know the kids that run around. My son got a chance to sit and BS with the "guys" his age. They were yacking and yammering about mutton busting and "this one time...." The stories were quite cute. To get a visual you have to imagine they are all in about the second grade so all of them are short a tooth or two or more. If you stand and listen to some in rodeo, there are always a few digits missing off the ropers, a few teeth off the rough stock riders a little something here and there missing. As my hubby and I stood with our son a few feet away in his group of "guys" and just a few gals because they can mutton bust to at that age. As I sat and watched I had to giggle, the scene was so reminiscent of a group of grown men BS-ing. It just made me smile from my heart. I leaned back against my hubby and he wrapped his arms around me and we watched the rodeo. Love my life. Cherish every moment.

Enjoy!
Chris

We are on countdown to the VDBC Anniversary Party! The time of year, we celebrate and party in the forum. So here is how you can start and get in the mood.

I am interested in any craft project you have posted on your blog that is Anniversary, Birthday, Celebration, or just a great party! It can be an appetizer recipe, a decoration, a card for a birthday. I am not super picky. The only picky is you will need to have the VDBC logo in the post  or a link to my blog here and that you are celebrating with us. So others can join in as well!! or if is an older post you just need to add the VDBC logo in the sidebar of your blog. (Here is the URL to upload it from our site http://webadmin.automatit.net/user_files/30205/avatar200.jpg  Thank you for your supporting our partying!)

So the options are wide open and full of fun. Invite others to join us in the celebration! We love to see new faces.

My posts to celebrate are here.

3D Pumpkin from October Grab Bag

Share |

Yesterday,  I posted on my facebook page about a coupon from Bic Mark-It. I use these pens all the time. I have a little tin pail of them. My son loves them as well. I use them in the Scout meetings. I will post one of those pics soon.

I used the Bic Mark-It pens on this 3d pumpkin from the  October Grab Bag. I wanted a 3-d pumpkin to use for some decorating and I wanted a 3-d one to put in the middle of a card for my Dad. Here is a photo of the 3-d version I made into a table place holder with a toothpick and name and pen on it. And I mentioned the Bic Mark-It pens because I used them to color the edges of the popcorn after glueing to cover any white spots. Also the orange was just a little darker after coloring which give each pumpkin cut a nice trim. There are instructions inside the file on how to create this 3-d pumpkin. And also a fall leaf mat for any project you might have. If you create one of these I would love to see it in the October Grab Bag Challenge in the forum.

You can see the other files included in the October Grab Bag and purchase it here for only $7.00.

Friday you will want to stop by my blog. Think Anniversary, Party, celebration, Birthday. Do you have any of those type of projects you have a picture of? Keep them close at hand!!

Have a Terrific Tuesday!
Enjoy!
Chris
