Thank You Challenge!

THANK YOU for waiting for today's challenge! I know you are going to go "dang, she's got bad luck!" but we had another storm come rolling thru and our DSL modem got fried. *SIGH* Its going to be a few days before we're back to normal so be patient with any emails please :)

THANKS to everyone who played along with our Lift an Odd Girl Challenge! You can see our winners in yesterday's post.

Today is the last challenge of this term for our Odd Girls *insert sad face and wobbly lip here* so today our challenge is all about THANK YOU cards! THANK YOU for a fabulous term and THANK YOU for all your hard work! I'm sad to see this team go. Seriously, this was our best term! Love you all! Before I get more misty eyed, let's get to the challenge! I want to see THANK YOU creations. Sentiments need to be THANK YOU or some equivalent (ie: THANKS, TACK, GRACIAS etc). The rest Oddies, is up to you! Here's what my lovely ladies did with this challenge...


















We all have someone who could use a THANKS so let's create one for them! 

This challenge runs thru August 9th, when the linky closes the challenge is over. You MUST link back to this blog (http://someoddgirl.blogspot.com) and you MUST link up a specific post, not a whole blog. Inlinkz checks that these requirements are met and won't let you link until they are. Entries that do not meet the qualifications will be deleted without notification. 

Winner of this challenge is going to get a special prize! To show my love to our departing team, we have a fun prize! The winner (picked by random draw) will receive the uber popular and CUTE...



We don't giveaway Clear Stamps very often, and haven't for a challenge yet so don't miss out on your chance! Also join us back here MONDAY for the introduction of our new team! We are combining that with SNEAKS WEEK for our August 8th digi release! You know what that means! Giveaways all week long! Are you excited? I'm definitely excited :) 

See you MONDAY!

Lift an Odd Girl Challenge WINNER!

Wow! Going thru the entries from the Lift an Odd Girl Challenge... they are FABULOUS! So many Odd images too. You all are amazing! Mr. Random.org got to choose our winner, he's my virtual BFF to take on that job for me, and he chose...


Rene Sharp!!! She lifted Robin who lifted me, Kristy. Congrats Rene!!! Email me, Kristy@someoddgirl.com to collect your goodies! :D

For our two favs, I had such a hard time picking! It was really cool to see what people lifted and how they turned that inspiration into a creation of their very own. Our first fav lifted the amazing Asa! Rimna took the sweet girly tag of Asa and made it into a cute boy version...





Isn't that awesome?! Our second fav took Zarah's elegant and fun creation and turned it into a bright and cheery one. Brenda has such a knack for combining color and papers for fun effect!




Congrats to our favs! You can grab our Fav's Blinkie right to the right ------------------------->

Thanks to everyone who played along! I know some out there thought this was a tough challenge but tomorrows challenge will be a big THANK YOU ;)

Lift an Odd Girl Challenge

Congrats to our Winner and Favs from last weeks Bright and Blinding Challenge. You can see them on yesterday's post.

This one is going to be fun! LIFT A ODD GIRL! Go check out the Odd Girl's blogs and "lift" one of their creations to be inspired by. When you blog your creation, please also link to the blog post where your inspiration can be found. So we can see it :) It's close to saying goodbye to this term and I thought this is a fun way to really show the Odd Girls how inspirational they really are :)

So here is how we did it...

Kristy lifted Zarah using Photo Kaylee


Zarah lifted Asa using Pinwheel Panda


Carlie lifted Kellie with Sweet Thinkin Mae


Asa lifted Robin with Sweet Thinkin Mae


Robin lifted Kristy with Sweet Thinkin Mae (this Mae's a popular gal!)


Caz lifted Zarah with Tiny Baker Tia



Leah lifted Sarah with Photo Kaylee


Sarah lifted Zarah using Tiny Baker Tia


Let's see how the Odd Girls inspire YOU! This challenge runs thru July 26th, when the linky closes the challenge is over. Entries that use a Some Odd Girl image (digi or stamp) will get 2 entries into the draw! Twice the chance of winning! All entries must be new for this challenge, no back linking, we do check, and your entry post must be linked to this blog (http://someoddgirl.blogspot.com) and linked to a specific post (not a generic blog link) or sweet InLinkz will not let you link up until you do. Entries in the comments will not be counted. Please read the rules/challenge well, as we've been having some issues with entries meeting the requirements.


The winner of this challenge will be getting 2 digis of their choice from the shop! Good luck and stay odd!

Bright and Blinding WINNERS!

Our super big thanks to everyone who played along with our Bright and Blinding Challenge! With the 2 entries you get for using one of our stamps or digis on your creation we had 116 entries into this challenge! AWESOME! It was amazing to see so many Odd cards springing up! Big YAY!!! :)

For our winner of 2 digis of their choice from our shop, Mr. Random.org has chosen...


Carrie as our winner! Congrats Carrie! You definitely hit our theme outta the park! Email me, Kristy@someoddgirl.com to collect your prize :)

With so many entries you can imagine it took me awhile to pick favs. I'm still behind from our power outage on commenting but I found 2 cards I'm sure you'll agree are pretty fab! First we have a card that has plenty of colorful punch in a CAS style package. JoAnn made Ice Cream Tia look so cute with her dose of Sass!


Our second fav not only shows of our Bright and Blinding theme but she made it HOT with warm colors across the board with a hint of blue that just pops! Sylvia totally rocked (or rolled) her card with Roller Mae!

Congrats to both of our favs! Go ahead and grab the fav's badge to the right and wear it proudly!!! Be ready for a new challenge tomorrow that will lift you up with fun! :D

Our Sneaks Guest but delayed...

Today I've got a lil sumthin sumthin to share with you :) For our sneaks last week we were suppose to have a fabulous Guest joining us but unfortunately for us and her the Canadian Postal strike tied up her package until YESTERDAY. It seriously sat in some post office for weeks just waiting for delivery!

So sad! Another grumble between me and the postal service.

BUT that's not going to stop me from sharing with you! Laurel Seabrook got right to craftin when her goodies came in the mail and made a fabulous creation!


The inside say "I forgot your birthday!"

What a perfect sentiment to use with Photo Kaylee! I kinda wish I'd thought of it ;) lol. The papers just set off the party/birthday theme too.

Hop on over to Laurel's blog for more details and give her some love!
