Hi Everyone and Happy Thursday! Yes, it’s Thursday and I’m blowing bubbles today for our Ways To Use It Challenge. This will be my last challenge for the Ways To Use It Challenge. Next year my DH and I have plans to travel our beautiful country and creating may not always be easy or posting. I have so enjoyed my time on this team and sharing my creative ideas.
Join our challenge, have some fun and let us show you ways on how to stretch your stash.
I'm dreaming dreams, I'm scheming schemes, I'm building castles high. They're born anew, Their days are few, Just like a sweet butterfly. And as the daylight is dawning, They come again in the morning.
I'm forever blowing bubbles, Pretty bubbles in the air, They fly so high, They reach the sky, I'm forever blowing bubbles, Pretty bubbles in the air.
How many of us have made bubbles using soap? I still do this with our DGC.
My challenge to you is to create a project that incorporates bubbles….bubbles in the ocean, bubble baths or bubbles in champagne. Make them white or full of colour. Perhaps you would like to try the bokeh technique? Create a card, a scrapbook page, a tag or a journal page…the important thing is to just create.
Alternatively take inspiration from the song and words above. Did you know that this song is West Ham United Soccer Club’s anthem? I also learnt that it was sung during WWII in the air raid shelters to lift morale.
Here’s some inspiration and more info on the song.
Another on-site technique to check out is TLC788 - Bubble Painting. You can find it at here.
When uploading your project, remember to use the keyword WT877 so we can see your creation in the gallery. It also helps if you link your project on the Ways to Use It thread too.
Our team has lots of inspiration for you each Thursday.
If you're not sure how to add a link, here's how:
1. Open 2 windows or tabs: one for your card in the gallery, and one for this thread
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Go to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
A big thank you to Sabrina, Lisa, Polly and Toni for their beautiful creations and take on my challenge today. I’ve so enjoyed being part of your team. You ladies rock!
Let the fun begin! Happy Thursday and wishing you a Happy and Healthy 2022 and keep creating.

Thank you, Jayne for serving as a challenge hostess and providing us with so many great challenges. I wish you and your husband a great time traveling in the coming year! Here is my card for today's fun theme:
A good old song, Jaynie....published in 1919, it was in a Broadway musical called Passing Show of 1918. Harpo Marx played it on the clarinet, which then emitted bubbles. I love learning this fun stuff.
So many gorgeous cards in the gallery. Thank you so much everyone for playing. I’m forever seeing bubbles lol.
Jean I love love the Marx brothers and would watch every movie of theirs when younger. Thanks for the info. I like learning.
Happy New Year everyone…..2022 is coming. Let’s hope it’s a better one
