~ What’s Up Wednesday~

February 11th, 2009 by Holly McMillen

Good morning ladies!

Today is a rather fun day for me.   I get to host this week’s What’s Up Wednesday challenge in the My Favorite Things member forums  on Splitcoaststampers!    I hope you all will stop by to have a peek and a chat!   You can find the challenge HERE.

My challenge is to use acetate in your project.   I use the heck out of acetate.   I use it to make bags, boxes, cards… I can’t get enough of acetate.   Here are some links to acetate projects I have done on Splitcoaststampers:

Make A Wish

Call Me
Now, I have a giggle (*snort ~ for Cindy) for ya.   I was prepping my write up for this challenge when I opened the picture of the last project I did … keep in mind, I have been battling a viral flu/cold for the past several days and am taking some pretty strong medicine.  Much to my suprise there is a HUGE boo boo on my project.   I could not stop laughing.   I have laughed myself silly over this and wanted to go ahead and share it here for all of you to see.   Now.. there IS a catch.    Don’t reveal what you see is my boo-boo.  Instead, the first person who sends me a private message through SCS pointing out my boo boo will receive a special RAK from me.

    Hi Holly,

    I just wanted to let you know that my blog stamp set arrived safe and sound. Thank you so much! I haven’t had a chance to play with them yet, but I will be sending you an official thank you made with my new stamps! Thank you also for the amazing card that you sent with it. I love your work, and to receive such a gorgeous card along with the stamp set made it extra special.

    I saw the project that you said you were chuckling about, and I’m guessing that you’re laughing because the hearts are upside down? I don’t know if I would have even noticed if you hadn’t said to LOOK for something! Too funny, and a very cute project!

    Thanks again,
    Barb Bird

    As usual your creations are stunning, but I have to say that last one with the butterfly made my jaw drop!!! Oh my, it is just gorgeous!!! I love the butterfly, the gorgeous colours and how you’ve changed the colour of the label one mat behind the flowers - how cool is that??!!
