Bloggers Challenge Travels to Stampotique-ville

This week over at Lisa's Blogger Challenge, the theme is Travel.  I'm actually posting on time for a change and combining the BC with the Stampotique Designers Challenge which is Black and White and a touch of color.

I did a fast and simple fun card using an old TJNL tech, film strip.


sound the horns, ring the bells.........today is the Fall Equinox, and for those of you who've known me for a while, it's egg standing day!!!!  Yep, that's right, when the earth and the sun reach a certain place, me and my egg are in balance and I have a photo for you.  Now hurry run....get your eggs out and see if you can stand them up.....for the non believers out there, and you know who you are........it is a NEW photo, and I can't do photoshop!  lol

Yep, just a raw little chicken egg standing on end!  lol and big hugs...

You are such a good egg! Love your old wagon jalopy! This reminds me of the old woody I saw the other day! Have a great weekend!

Fabulous card. Great image and the filmstrip look is wonderful.
Okay I confess I "tried" the egg thing after reading your post. Didn't work for me...maybe the Equinox passed me by.

I think you have some little fingers back there holding that thing up!

This image looks great with the film strip and the wander tag. Love it GF!

Hi Gerrie!

Happy Egg Day, My Friend! Do you know what time we are supposed to do the egg thing, so I can do it next year? Thanks!

I love this card! The image is so fun...look at all of the people! It reminds me of packing people in a VW Bug! I didn't see the "Wander" tag until I read "Basement Stampers" comment! It is a great addition! So is that splash of color. Great job, Gerrie!

Now, if I could only understand this whole code thing to enter the challenge. I have no idea what it means. Need to pass that info on to Hubby!

He IS Able!
