Week 29 - It's My Life

Last week's challenge was doomed from the start.  First blogger held the post hostage, and then inlinkz went MIA across all of blogdom.  I offered up an extra day to complete the challenge and then came home Sunday night and sat down instinctively and closed it up like I always do...completely forgetting the extra 24 hours I'd promised.  I did include all of the links in the comments, but as an apology for those that were working still on their challenge thinking they had another 1/2 a day, I will be offering up an extra prize this week....see details below.  Also stay tuned in a few days for our latest DT call. 

The song we are boppin' along to this week is 'It's My Life' by Bon Jovi.  Our sponsor is the awesome Crafty Ribbons.

They are offering the winner their entire collection of 3mm satin ribbons...EVERY color they carry!






----------------------------------------




This ain't a song for the brokenhearted
No silent prayer for the faith departed
And I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice when I shout it out loud
 
It's my life, it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life
 
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just wanna live while I'm alive
Cause it's my life
 
This is for the ones who stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky, gotta make your own breaks
 
You better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bed, don't break baby, don't back down
 
----------------------------------------

Before I move on to the DT work, I want to share the goodies up for grab from moi that I spoke about in paragraph numero uno!  It's a back to school mini album kit (photo coming in a few hours).  Everyone who enters this week's challenge will be entered into a random drawing for this prize.  Regardless if you are chosen in the top 5 or not, your name will be entered into this draw as long as you link up a creation by the deadline. 

DT inspiration for you to sink your eyes into:







You will have until NOON November 7th (CST) to enter your link into consideration.  Please remember to link to your blog post and not the blog in it's entirety.  If app goes missing feel free to leave your creation link in the comments.  Also, make sure you are using this week's song as your inspiration.  You don't need to use the lyrics as your title or journaling, but if you stretch the challenge a bit, make sure you leave a trail of breadcrumbs so we can follow you on your awesome path to creative genious.  :) :)

This top 5 is the cream of the crop

Such awesome entries this week. I so love seeing the inspiration you all share week after week. I accidently closed this challenge early.  I came home on Sunday night as I always do and finished up the winners post.  I completely blanked on the fact that we were having inlinkz issues early on and the post was posting screwy and I had offered an extra day.  My apologies, that was totally my mistake.  I did include all of the entries that were in the comments up until 10:30pm when I started my post.  As a HUGE apology, I will be giving away an extra, 'THANKS FOR BEING AWESOME' prize with tomorrow challenge.  We were sponsored this week by the uber adorable The Stamping Boutique.  The winner will be getting 5 awesome images from their store! 



The big winner (chosen randomly from among our awesome top 5) this week is: Donna.  Please email me at scrapitwithasong(at)yahoo(dot)com to arrange for your goodies.

Week 28 - My Guy

Oh my! Thank you to the few readers who brought a heads up to me that this never posted. I had it set to auto post and it's still sitting there in my blogger dashboard as 'scheduled' and the post date was 2 days ago!! I will be extending the due date to Monday to make sure you have time to play. Blogger is being funky lately, I am sooo sorry.

This week we are singing along with the song My Guy. It's been covered by many fabulous ladies, but the words remain the lovey-dovey fun we remember. Also, please remember the lyrics only have to inspire you. This can be as simple as using a portion of the lyrics as your journaling or title or just letting it move you to use a certain type of photos or embellies. Just make sure if you stretch your imagination very far....leave us a trail of breadcrumbs to follow LOL.

This week's sponsor is The Stamping Boutique

Nothing you could say could tear me away from my guy
Nothing you could do, 'cause I'm stuck like glue to my guy
I'm sticking to my guy like a stamp to a letter
Like birds of a feather, we stick together
I'm tellin' you from the start
I can't be torn apart from my guy

Nothing you could do could make me untrue to my guy
Nothing you could buy could make me tell a lie to my guy
I gave my guy my word of honour to be faithful, and I'm gonna
You best be believing I won't be deceiving my guy

As a matter of opinion I think he's tops
My opinion is he's the cream of the crop
As a matter of taste, to be exact
He's my ideal, as a matter of fact

No muscle bound man could take my hand from my guy
No handsome face could ever take the place of my guy
He may not be a movie star,
but when it comes to bein' happy, we are

There's not a man today who could take me away from my guy
