FEB11VSBNG ~ Saturday, February 5, 2011 ~ 8:00 PM EST ~ The Pressure Cooker
Title: "The Pressure Cooker"
Hostess: Charlsanne: cla616
Keyword: FEB11VSBNG
Day/Date: Saturday, February 5, 2011
Time: 8:00 PM (EST)
When I first saw the theme for this upcoming VSBN, FIND YOUR GROOVE, I knew exactly what helps me get in the scrapping groove � PRESSURE, as in deadlines, stress, it�s the last minute and now I am out of time and better get this done asap kind of pressure.
So my challenge is based on recipes you can make in a Pressure Cooker
Make one page or multiple pages based on the recipes below
For this recipe there are 5 main components, and 6 spices/condiments to complete the recipe. With this in mind you need to
You can view my Double Page Spread Left Side and Right Side
Here is the sketch I used for this challenge, it fit it perfectly with picture and DSP amount, feel free to use it as well! Double Page Sketch #6 from Sketch Support
1. There are 3 main colors involved in this recipe: White, Black, Red (or Brown) � use those colors to complete your spread. White should be the main color used, with black sprinkled throughout either with stamps or embellishments, use as much BBQ sauce as you desire (the red or brown color)
2. You need 2 pounds of pork to complete this recipe � so use 2 pictures that are from the same event, time frame, so they are similar but with subtle differences. I.E. same background, different subjects, etc. (Every piece of Pork essentially look the same, but there are always some minor deviations, one piece may be a little smaller or larger, have a slight different texture grain through it, I think you get the point on this one.)
3. 4 Garlic Cloves � each sliced into 4 slivers � so you know what you need 16 elements of some sort on this page, stamps, embellishments, whatever suits your fancy.
4. BBQ Sauce and Apple Cider Vinegar are what give this dish it�s zing � so give me a little Bling!
5. Extra Credit: Mimic the coleslaw, slip in a smidge of orange and green.
I thought with Valentine�s Day coming up having a Red and White challenge with a hint of soft colors would be perfect to finish up this challenge. Use as many pictures on this page as you want
1. Most of the ingredients in this challenge are White, so try and stick with as much white space, white embellishments, white DSP as you can. If you need to use a few other colors, keep them pale, since this is a LIGHT pudding you don�t want to be too heavy handed.
2. Of course being strawberry there must be a red element, try to make your journaling red or your title red but only 1 RED element may be used, it could be an embellishment, ribbon, etc. But please limit this to only a 1 time color use.
3. 2 Egg yolks needed, so somewhere on this page sneak in 2 yellow items, keep them small, a brad, small stamp, the date of the picture.
4. Extra Credit: Did you forgot to take the stems off your strawberries before you pureed them??? Somewhere add the smallest hint of green on your page, and not the pale kind of green, this should be a shamrock type green color.
Enjoy your Pressure Cooker Recipes, do 1 recipe or if you have time do all 3

Well minus a little journaling I got five pages done today...Voices (2), Tyedye (1), and from the mini A challenge (2). I'll be doing the Slang & Orange Soup when I wake up tomorrow as well as uploading. I'm such a slow scrapper but I have been finishing within the two-hour time limit. This is why I volunteer to be a VSBN Host ~ you get the challenges ahead of time! I don't think I could pull pictures, create a plan and scrap during VSBN, I'd get nothing done :-)
Well, if you know me...I'm an early to bed gal. I'm closing up shop and getting ready to hit the hay. Have a good evening everyone!
Night MP - will look for your creations in the am!!

Anyone working on the strawberry challenge? I know we had some Orange takers, and a Pork taker, I love seeing everyone's angle on these, so much fun to host these!! It also means I get a few pages done that may have gone to the wayside a bit longer

The strawberry one was definately the most appetizing for me! Both literally and figuratively!! I have a few wedding pics that I think will work great with this color scheme!

Today is the tomorrow we worried about yesterday.
Great, now I'm hungry AND scrappy. Kids are still racing around... sigh.
I just finally convinced mine to go to bed! Now I have some quiet time.
Gotta do laundry though. DGS' cub pack troup gets together tomorrow morning at the one church that sponsors them and I need to finish getting his uniform ready. I believe they need to greet people coming in and hand out bulletins and I think the pastor is doing something special to honor the scouts. Every fall when they do their annual food drive, they also help with clean up around the outside of the church. It will be the first time I've gotten to visit it so it will be interesting.
I might try to see if I can come up with some pics that fit the dessert (I like dessert more than main courses )

okay... I'm back. I had to go check out the other challenges to see where I want to start. I think I am going to start with Dessert first. So I am going to take on the Strawberry Challenge here.
