Boy am I dense today - the cold weather is affecting my brain. Dare I say --- What the? I think I understand that we are to create a word picture with stamps. Please can you give me some additional examples and then my brain will click on. This is kind of like a image pun? Please help the less sharp.
Should be an interesting challenge. |

I am all over this one!! Did I miss it though, when's the deadline for it?
Also, besides image stamps are we allowed to use a photo too? I'm already thinking on this one ! |

Egg-Stream Ice Cream Witches?
"Extreme, I scream, "Witches!!!!!"
This can't be right, but maybe it will give someone else a start?
ETA: Extreme Ice Cream Wishes? |

Stamping 'Pictionary'? Sounds like FUN! Might be a fun WF challenge/game.
I really like the 'sentiment' (saying) aspect of Marshia's challenge. 'Course some of us might have to resort to handrawn & stickers to augment our stamps, but this tickles my 'punny' bone!  |

Wonderful job, Stampwilly!
I have been taking a mental inventory of my stamps that might work for this, but haven't come up with anything yet. I do have an alphabet set that might come in handy if I need to add a sound...
I'll echo the question of when the deadline is for this? |

Took me a bit to get to Marshia's sample, but it was worth it!
'Eye Mustache Ewe' was her saying--too funny!
About the deadline? I hearya, but really hope she makes it an on-going challenge. It is sooo novel!!! |

Yipee, I'm so glad there's interest in this challenge. Hmmmm,Not sure why the dates are not showing on the challenge blog, sorry.
January 15 - February 15 . I'm excited to see what y'all come up with!
LOL, Lickyann. You're too funny! I totally get the mental 'frozen brain' picture! I'll shoot it back at you, draw a brain then hang icicles from it... frozen brain. And I know you'v seen the I heart U cards (I love you) and even the OWL always heart U (I'll always love you. Are you thawed yet. LOL
I don't want to give too many examples, I might accidentally give one someone wants to use.
Boy it didn't take Stampwilly long! Totally fun and it works great!Check hers out! Now no more excuses y'll get busy.  |

Thanks for sharing the dates! Honestly, I'm glad this is a long timeframe, I am having trouble finding time to sit in front of my stamps and think! But I really want to at least try! |

I did it - and it was tough going. Some brain just don't work this way and mine is one of them. I was determined to do it, but had help from a friend of mine with the saying and what stamps to use. Have fun figuring it out, for anyone in Utah - it will make perfect sense. We are having lots of inversions.
Thanks for the challenge and I really kind of like the card - but who to mail it to? My Say It With Pictures. |

Birthday cake and candle = wishing
Little lamb = ewe (U)
Sun shining = sunshine
"Wishing you sunshine"
We haven't seen the sun for so long here in Utah. |

lickeyan, I'm so glad you posted the solution. I was looking at that last night and just couldn't figure out what the cake meant! |

Ah ha! Clever! The cake had me stumped, too. Good job.
I think you're right that some people's (actually probably a lot of people's) brains just don't work that way. |

Here is mine!
I've given a hint of what could be written inside the card.
Who can work it out? |

I'm so glad to see the challenge is getting y'all looking at those stamps differently. And I can tell there are some brains thawing! LOL

Great card Cristin. I had most of the saying, but the punctuation marks had me stumped. I thought they were part of the saying as well instead of just punctuation! LOL! Good job!
