Last Immunity Winner Revealed!!!

Hi everyone! Sorry this post is soooo late! With the Birthday boy having his game and party on Saturday and then Mother's Day on Sunday I'm a little behind!!

The crafters if they chose to play for immunity had to make something birthday-ish with the theme of video games using only the colors Red, Blue, Green, and Black! Now that said if they had a human cut out or piecing they could use skin color.

Also we had a redemption play off... Only one turned in a project so she will continue on to try to make it back to the main Island! Here's her project:

And yes,.. It's sideways... I have NO idea why but blogger hates me today! The photo I have is right side up but try as I might I can not get it flipped around right and I'm tired of fighting with it! :( I'm sorry redemption player!!

Here are the projects for those playing for Immunity....

#1 

 

#2

 

#3

 

#4

And I had the Birthday Boy check em all out and his pick for winner of Immunity is...

#1

 

So as long as #1 turns in a project this week they are safe!

 

Remember your BIG Challenge (Vintage Mother's Day) is due this Friday by 11:59 pm Eastern!

I will post them Saturday and hopefully we have all votes in this time around in a timely manner!

 

Good luck to you all and I am SOOOOO sorry I didn't get this posted sooner!!

 

Until next time....

Who's been saved???

Well it's another Monday following a fierce battle for immunity!

So who won?

Well the fans have spoken and the person safe this week is...

 

#3

CONGRATS!!!

Remember #3... You must still make and turn in a project this Friday (May 3) to be safe!

I can't wait to see what the Islanders make!
Until then..

Fan Favorite Winner & Next Immunity Challenge

Good morning, Islanders!!

 

All the ladies did a fabulous job on their projects this week! But there is always a fan favorite and this time around the winner will receive 3 extra votes in the immunity challenge if they decide to participate!

 

So without further ado...

Our fan favorite is...

 

 

 #5

 

Congrats #5!!!

 

Now onto the next Immunity Challenge....

This will be due this Friday April 26 by 11:59 pm eastern time!

I would love to see what you do with a tag!

Jazz it up...Make it pretty!

I'd love to see some bling on it...pearls, rhinestones...you know...

oh...

I can't make it that easy...

What am I thinking...

Well you also must pick from these 3 color combos!

You can ONLY use these colors...Varying shades ok... But nothing extra!

#1- Black, Yellow, Purple

#2 Gray, Blue, Orange

#3 Hot pink, Lime Green, and white

 

hehehe...

this will be interesting!

Can't wait to see what you do!

 

ALSO...

It has come to my attention that I wasn't very clear with the rule on photos...

so to make it easy...

NO photos of humans...

There...

That ought to settle it! :)

Inanimate objects, animals, plants...fine

You, your kids, random strangers....Not ok!

If you submit a project with a human photo on it I will NOT accept it!

Don't set yourself up to be eliminated for something silly!

 

Ok...

That's it...

for now..

Until next time...

Hugs From The Island ♥

A Favorite & Immunity Challenge Theme

Good Morning Everyone!!! What another great weekend here on the Island. We had 6 amazing projects that all together got 38 votes!! WHOO HOO...And our winner had 15 of those votes!!! The winner is....

#5!!!

Congrats #5!!! I will be contacting you about your prize!!!

 

So it's a VERY Important week here on the Island. I can see something a ways off....Can you see it too?

 

IMPORTANT!!!! MUST READ!!!!

Looks like love is in the air!!! That's right ladies...This Wednesday is my husband's birthday AND our wedding anniversary!!! So I figured a great challenge (should you choose to do it!) is to make either a birthday or anniversary card for a man! Oh but if only it were going to be that simple, right? Your card must be black, white, and one other color of your choosing! Oh and did I mention that it also must have something on it that moves? Hehehe..Couldn't make it too easy for you! ;)

 

Good luck! If you choose to do this project it will need to be turned in by this Friday (September 14th) no later then 11:59 PM EST! All of the elements I've asked for must be included or I will NOT post your project!

 

So until then...

hugs from the Island ♥

 

And Immunity goes to...

Hi everyone!

Another great week of votes! We had a total of 45 and the winner had 18 of those votes!

So congrats goes to...

YAY!!! So as long as you (#2) turn in your big project this Friday then you will be safe and can NOT be eliminated!! I really really hope all 7 of you turn in your projects this week so we can have a vote!

You have until 11:59 PM EST on Friday September 7 to turn in your projects! I will post them for Saturday morning for all to see and fingers crossed we have a Tribal Counsel!

Next Immunity Theme & a Winner

Good Morning, Islanders!!! We had an amazing voting turnout again! 49 total votes and our winner had 26 of them!!! So congrats to...

#7!!!

I will contact you about your winnings!!!

 

Now onto our next Immunity Challenge! Remember it is up to you if you choose to compete for Immunity! This project will be due Friday August 31 by 11:59 pm EST!

 

For this project MAKE SURE you READ the details! Last week we had 4 submit a project and in all honesty only 1 turned in the correct project! As the other 3 came in late, it was the first time it had happened, and I didn't have the heart to tell you they were unacceptable! All very great projects but not what was asked! So if you turn in a project (no matter when you turn it in) if it's not what was asked then I WILL NOT post it! So PLEASE make sure you READ everything!

 

On to the project...For this week's Immunity I want to see an ALTERED ITEM (meaning no cards, no layouts, no tags!) Take something and turn it into something else! Oh and while you're at it... You can only use the following colors...Different shades are fine...but no other color! I want these Altered Items to only be WHITE, BLACK & RED!!! No they do NOT have to be Island Themed! Whatever you want to make...but ONLY those 3 colors are allowed!!!

 

Good Luck and I can't wait to see what you make!!

 

Until then...

hugs from the Island ♥

And the reward goes to....

Well the Birthday girl has arrived and had a really tough time picking her favorite. Honestly we went back and forth between the pictures probably 100 times! She was so excited to see them all and absolutely LOVES each and every one so THANK YOU all that entered! But as it is for everything there can only be one winner...and the winner is...

CONGRATS Ellen"CardMonkey" Jarvis!!!!

Good morning, Islanders!!! :)

Well I have some good news for one of my "Terrific 10"! The votes are in!!! I was so happy to see 56 votes this week!!! WHOO HOO!!!! It was very very close between a few but in the end there was one clear winner!!! And here it is....

So CONGRATS #2!!! :)

All of you did a FABULOUS job and I'm so glad I don't have to vote! I could never choose between you amazing crafters!!

Now don't forget that your BIG CHALLENGE Projects are due Friday Aug 10 by 11:59 pm EST! And #2 remember you still need to make a Big Challenge Project to remain safe! No project...No more torch!!!

I'm anxious to see what you all do!! :)

NOW for the Reward Challenge! Our Birthday Girl is currently back on the main land and won't be back on the Island until later on tonight! She still hasn't see the cards so that will be the first thing she does! As soon as I have her choice I will post the winner!!!

Again CONGRATS #2 and check back later for the Reward Winner!! :)

Until then...

And Immunity goes to....

Hi Islanders! Thank goodness there is WIFI here at the Island Hospital. I had to bring my oldest in. Turns out she's been spending too much time in the ocean and has Swimmer's Ear (AKA an ear infection) but as we sat waiting I was able to check the poll and at 12:00 am est. it was close. 14-13! I don't know why blogger was allowing votes after 11:59pm because that was the end time I set but it did. However I know what it said at 12:00am and that's what I'm going with as that was the time I set at the beginning of the challenge!

Therefore our winner is #3!!! I can't tell you who #3 is but this crafter knows!!! CONGRATS #3!!! Now make SURE you turn in your big project on time for your Immunity to take effect!!!

I would like to thank everyone who voted in this first challenge and I hope you will continue to vote on the fabulous work this bunch does!

Also don't forget about the Reward Challenge! That runs until Wednesday July 25th at 11:59 pm EST! :)

So until then,..

Hugs from the Island ♥
