A big thanks to everyone who played along. It seems it's getting harder and harder to pick a winner. See you all next Wednesday for a new word-inspired challenge.  :)

W2CB #68: Mid-Challenge Reminder

Hope to see you in the W2CB Gallery!

W2CB #68: Picnics

Hi, everyone! It's the second Wednesday of a new month.... which means it's time for a new Words 2 Craft By Challenge.

Yes, we know that lots of teachers and kids here in the States are heading back to school this week. But, we here at W2CB have decided to hang on to the days of summer as long as we can. And, it seems like summer just isn't complete without going on a picnic. In that spirit, here are a few words from Five Go Off in a Caravan by Enid Blyton.

I don't know why, but the meals we have on picnics
always taste so much nicer than
the ones we have indoors.

Time to look at a few picnic-inspired creations from our gals, starting with a Guest I-Teammer Wendy... whose sweet card featuring an adorable watermelon-eating tot. Thanks so much for joining us, Wendy! Your card would be perfect for me to send to my dad. LOL

And our W2CB Winner Is...

... MariLynn, who created the gorgeous moon-landing-inspired card shown below.

By MariLynn of Missippi-McGyver

Congratulations, MariLynn! We were over the moon -- pun intended -- by all the texture and dimension, as well as the beautiful background, of your amazing interpretation of our W2CB theme. Please e-mail me at cards[dot]by[dot]sybrina[at]gmail[dot]com to make prize arrangements. 

Many thanks to all who celebrated the Apollo 11 moon landing with us. We'll be back next Wednesday with a new word-inspired challenge. See you then!

W2CB #67: 50 Years Ago Today

I was a little girl, and my mother settled me into my rocking chair in front of the TV.  She told me to pay close attention, and someday I would tell my children and grandchildren that I watched the first lunar landing live.  Mom was ahead of her time, and recognized the importance of making memories.  I've tried to do that with my son, but he is young enough that the jury is still out!  I have always told him that I love him to the moon and back.

Come play along with us at Words 2 Craft By as we honor the mission's lunar plaque inscription.

We came in peace for all mankind.

The challenge is open through July 24.  Peace.

W2CB #67: The Men on the Moon

Hi, everyone! It's the second Wednesday of a new month.... which means it's time for a new Words 2 Craft By Challenge.

July 20th will mark the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. In honor of Neil Armstrong, Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, Michael Collins, and all the men and women of NASA, we remember the mission's lunar plaque inscription.

We came in peace for all mankind.

We have a few creations to get those crafting juices flowing, starting with a gorgeous card by Guest I-Teamer Julia. Thanks so much, Julia, for joining us for this challenge! We're thrilled you accepted our invitation.  :)
