http://www.scrapbookmax.com/gallery/data/500/MMW-Weekly-challenge-12-000-Page-4_800_x_800_.jpg

[sacannon]

I love it Marion! You were so cute (not that you aren't still cute) LOL Love the template too.

[O2BNGdHope]

Ok, here's the 2nd part of my challenge. The kit is from Lila2002 called Rozen kit. The pearl ribbon I added from Moonbeam but not sure if it was a freebie or not. The embroidered heart is from Jazziel & it's under the thread, Embroidered shapes. I used to wear alot of dresses with this small rose print when I was a baby so I thought it appropriate.

[sacannon]

This is gorgeous! Great Job and cute picture.

[Marion]

Cute Hope!

Thanks. None of us ever had hair as babies but Mom tried to make a small curl on top anyway. But THIS is ridiculous. It's what.... maybe 1/32 of an inch????? Rotfl!

[mh51]

Here I used Moonbeam (Deanne Gow-Smith)'s BONUS BUNDLE...

[rosana brito]

OH! I soon imagined that these beautiful ladies, would have to be pretty children!
I loved this exposition, congrats girls BRAVOOOOOOOO!

[O2BNGdHope]

Ohhhh, Mh51. You look so adorable. Love the dimples. But, doggone it. Did you have to pick a set that was no longer available? I LOVE Moonbeams stuff. I have bought tons. I just can't help it. But her offer ended in Sept! I didn't join until Nov so missed that one. Maybe Moonbeam will open it back up now that you've used her kit. I've been eyeballing a couple more of her kits and this would be a cool add on......<hint hint> Moonbeam....are you reading this????

[wolvsie35]

Love this challenge...and the LO's so far are just too cute...Have we confused you all enough?...lol...Hint..I'm the cutest baby out of them all...<wink> HEHEHEHE...LOL...:D

1. Knzus
2. Deane
3. Granny Scraps
4. Michelle
5. Julie Clark
6. Granny
7. Fiona

[O2BNGdHope]

I'm stickin' with my 2nd guess:D Fiona was good to overlook my 1st one, don't want to push my luck. LOL!

[sacannon]

I will try and check later. don't know if I will be around or not. My mother woke me up with a phone call at 2am. She said she was in so much pain and couldn't take it. That was all I could get out of her. So I rushed over there and she was in bed but was having bad pain from the hip down to her knee on her right side and she couldn't roll over. I don't know how she managed to get the phone because it was on the side she couldn't roll over on. I told her I was going to call 911 but she didn't want them coming when she was only in a nighty (of course). So we managed to get her up to put on a robe and walked out into the living room with her walker (barely) She couldn't stand straight up and was still in pain. She still didn't want me to call but I did any way. I told her there wasn't anything I could do for her and the way she was, I didn't think she would be able to get in my car. So they came and we spend the evening in the emergency room. They ex-rayed it and didn't find and breaks or fractures and her replacement parts still seemed to be intact. She fell in December and we didn't know if this could have been a delayed reaction. Her right leg was all bruised from the fall and we had that ex-rayed and it was ok, but this was the opposite side. So they determined it was either her Arthitis or muscle spasms. She has been moving Christmas boxes around and I think that is what did it. They are going to have a therapist come out to the house to evaluate her. Hopefully she gets over this fast because she is suppose leave to go to my sisters on the 19th (We are driving her to Tennesee and My sister is meeting us there and taking her the rest of the way to Florida. She won't fly by herself. My sister is having surgery and my mom is suppose to help out with cooking while my sister is recuperating. But If she doesn't get over this, it wouldn't make any sense for her to go.

Any way, we didn't get back to my mom's house until 8:00am. I came home about 9am to get a shower. I dropped off a prescription they wrote for muscle relaxer and they increased the amount of vicodin. hopefully that will help. But I don't know how she will be for going to bed since she couldn't get out this morning. I may have to stay there.

Sorry, this got long. Talk to you later.

[O2BNGdHope]

So sorry about your mother. Hope she gets to feeling better. Will keep you all 3 in my prayers.

[angelwithin]

aww Sue hope mum is feeling better soon xxx

[mh51]

Sue...Thinking of you & your Mum. take care...

[sacannon]

Well, she told me to go home earlier and get some sleep. I fell asleep about 3:30pm and at 5:15 she called to see if I had just called her. LOL Well, It was a nice nap! It was best I got up any way so I can sleep tonight. She said she would be ok. Hopefully I don't get another 2 am call!

[pkdoll]

Sue I hope that she gets to feeling better. It would be a shame if she has to miss her trip to Florida and bask in the sunshine. Take care and you get some well needed rest as well.

[pkdoll]

Well here is my guess at the babies.

1. Manatee
2. Knzus
3. Deanne
4. Wolvsie
5. Autistic Wonder
6. Granny
7. Fiona

[knzus]

[sacannon]

You know you're tired when you read a post like that and you think it says "babes"...LOL!


"babes" would be appropriate too! LOL They are all soooo cute!

1. Moonbeam
2. autisticwonder
3. grannyscraps
4. Wolvsie

Eye's Rose Peddles

I did alter some colors.

WOW, guys!! Can see you folks are real close but no cigars yet!! HEEEEHHEEEE


TOO FUN to see all these templates and baby pictures..Marion..that even looks like a dutch dress!!

OH..fun..let's see who gets them all right at the end!!

I'm watching in GREAT suspense!!

[O2BNGdHope]

Awww, Sue. Such a pretty smile. Love the layout. This was a really cool challenge. I've had a lot of fun with it. The fact that everyones layouts are essentially the same and yet look so different is really cool. Love this idea, Fiona.

[vnginger]

Here is the 2nd part of the challenge. This is me as a little girl. I used Fiona's template.

another cutie pie!

hope your mom is better today, sue.

[sacannon]

Thanks, Mom is still hurting and is having a hard time walking around. Her knee's hurt and if she tries to stand up straight it puts more presure on the hips and the knees, so she is walking leaning forward on her walker. A nurse came to the house today to set her up with inhome therapy for a while. hopefully this doesn't last long. I think she may have pinched a nerve or something myself. I take her to her family doc tomorrow afternoon. Don't know what he can do other than refer us to someone else. We will see.

[Marion]

Cute as a baby! and cute as an adult, Marion!


Thank you, that is soooo sweet!!!! Made my day!:D

[sacannon]

Well, I agree with Hope
1. Knzus
2. Autistic Wonder
3. Granny Scraps
4. Wolvsie
5. Julie
6. Granny
7 Fiona

But, The clue for #1 is sort of a trick. Mickey mouse was created on a train ride from New York to California! Maybe the train stoped in this state when he finished creating the character???

[pkdoll]

I went and research the clues and of course #7 is a vague clue because there are more than one designers that don't live in the USA--but I have to agree with Melanie and Sue. Here's my final guesses.

1. knuzus
2. Autistic Wonder
3. Grannyscraps
4. Wolvsie
5. Julie
6. Granny
7. Fiona

oops, I am going to blame that on my lack of sleep that I am trying to catch up on (snicker). (I lost a whole nights sleep earlier in the week) Well, I have to have some excuse. I have been goofing up a lot lately so that's as good excuse as I can give:o.

[O2BNGdHope]

Ok, baby designers....where's your baby layouts! Loved this game. And like a mentioned before, I like how everybody did the same template and yet they all look SO different. Great fun!! Thanks everybody!

[angelwithin]

Ok, baby designers....where's your baby layouts! Loved this game. And like a mentioned before, I like how everybody did the same template and yet they all look SO different. Great fun!! Thanks everybody!

lol we were all FAR too busy making the kit up to do layouts ;)

[O2BNGdHope]

WOW! That's a HUGE kit! I didn't know how big when I downloaded it I just got the PM message and hadn't yet looked at this thread. WOW! Thank you all for ALL your HARD work! WOW!.......did I say WOW, yet? WOW!

[O2BNGdHope]

I forgot to ask, who came up with question #1 and how did you know that he rode the train clear across the country while designing Mickey Mouse? You had to guess 3 first before you could be sure of #1. And thanks GrannyScraps for putting Kansas City, MO in as your location. When I was researching states, (as Fiona had used the word STATES) I wrote down Missouri for you and went looking for another Missourian. I just happened to come across you and the KANSAS City, MO just jumped off the page and hit me in the head with a hammer. But someone had to know that part about Walt Disney crossing the entire country. Could have been in any state.

[sacannon]

I looked up ("Mickey Mouse" "created") on Google and found a site that had the info about Disney riding the train from NY to California when he created Mickey. But it didn't state which state specifically was credited for the creation.

[sacannon]

Thanks for the wonderful and huge kit! You all did a fabulous job on it.

[angelwithin]

i got the thing about Mickey Mouse here http://www.10best.com/Kansas_City/locationDetails.html ;)

[Carena]

Wow - you guys have had so much fun with Fiona's challenge. I only wish I had more time and could participate more often. Well done everyone and congratulations
