Are you ready to start celebrating Scrap Girls 3rd Anniversary???



I've been given the grand honor of hosting the first of today's Anniversary Party chats! We are starting bright and early, because there is so much fun to be had and prizes to be given away!

Get your pens (digital or otherwise) ready and join me at 10am ET for a chat and a Scrap Girls Word Search puzzle! Brandie V created an incredible word search puzzle just for this event!

Everyone who returns their puzzle with at least 5 words found will receive one entry. Find all the words and you'll get a BONUS entry! The prize winner will be selected at random from all entries received. You will have until 10:45am ET to submit your puzzles to me to qualify for the prize!!

What's your prize? Well now, you'll have to come to the chat to find out!

BE PROMPT! Chat will begin ON THE DOT at 10am ET. I will be posting a link to the puzzle in this thread AFTER the chat begins. The sooner you get your puzzle, the better your chances of getting those entries!!

You must send your puzzles to me at FUN4SCRAPGIRLS@gmail.com. All puzzles must be received by 10:45am ET!

Remember even if you don't complete your puzzle, you will still get a prize entry by emailing your puzzle with at least 5 words found!

(Not sure what time 10am ET is for you? Click HERE!!)

I'm behind a firewall & can't get into the live chat rooms...is there anyway for us that can't get into the chat to play or get access to the word search?

[mjaguiar]

Amy,

I will post a link in this thread to the puzzle at about 10:05am ET. Everyone is welcome to play, even if you don't attend the chat.

[baybaymom20]

WOO HOO! Can't wait!!

[Becca]

I will be holding this chat in the LOBBY of the chat room. This way it's easiest for everyone to just pop on in when they can.

15 minutes to go...

[Zaz]

~Zaz, who will be there with bells on

[jonjonsmom]

[Becca]

Grab the Word Search Puzzle here ---> http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?acti...4C67DF867CC005C

You may use your graphics software to solve the puzzle or you can print, circle, and scan it back in to return it to me. Whichever you choose, please use RED to circle your words, so it's easiest for me to correct quickly.

Email your puzzles to me at fun4scrapgirls@gmail.com! Be sure to send your name and member name in the email!! All puzzles should be received by 10:45am ET, so I have time to get all the entries in time.

Sending in your puzzle with at least 5 words found gets you ONE entry! Sending in a completed and correct puzzle gets you a BONUS entry!

[baybaymom20]

Here we goooo....!

[Becca]

15 more minutes for the deadline to get your puzzles into me at fun4scrapgirls@gmail.com!!!! Don't forget to include your name and membername in your email, please!

[jennyrene]

sent mine in..

[Zaz]

Pure craziness, but at least I got my entry in. I NEED prizes. NEED, NEED, NEED!!!

~Zaz

[baybaymom20]

OMG did you guys get them all? I'm assuming so if you sent them in already...
I sent mine in now to make sure I get in under the deadline, but I didn't get them all...missing about 4 or 5 words still. Oh well...I guess its possible to win the lotto with only 1 ticket, right?

[jennyrene]

No, didn't get them all, but my sons off school today, so I KNEW I couldn't get them all before the deadline..

[spartica]

Sent mine in.

Hope it got there in time!

Love,
Marilyn

My scanner and email wouldn't send the file as big of a s one that I had to send. So then I had to go back and resize it, and sent it in a few minutes late. And I started scanning at 10:40. URGH!!!Slow scanner and email

[bscal]

This was fun! The chat goes so fast and so many scrappers. WOW! got mine sent in. Question do we get to keep searching and send it if we find all of them or was that the deadline.

[Becca]
