Show Choir Debut

Hi there.  "Show Choir Mom" here checking in to share a few pictures of Ryan from Show Choir.   So fun...and I seriously can't wait to go to their competitions later this year.  They sounded great after just a couple months of practice.  And the best part is all of their smiles.  I am so proud of Ryan for trying something new. He is putting in a ton of time practicing before school and at home.  This week is their choreography weekend.  They'll be working with a choreographer for about twenty hours.  Talk about a commitment!  I'll be sure to share more soon!

And...guess what?  Yesterday my day started with some serious happy news.  I won the entire Verve release from last week.  Yes...I was the random commenter that one!  I was so happy when Moe emailed me and when I saw the post with my own eyes!  So, what better time to share some Verve!  This card is for the current Viva La Verve Sketch Challenge.  Thanks so much Julee & Verve for your generosity!  Can't wait to get my new goodies.

Well done Lynn-great news. Love this card too-especially the polka daot paper mix with the white embossed paper. And how brave of Ryan-a budding start x

Wahoo Lynn! This news is fantastic! Those new Verve goodies look so yummy....can't wait to see what you create with them! Love your take on the Verve sketch!!!

Looks like Ryan is having a great time doing Show Choir! Hard work....but he'll reap the rewards of it!

How was your stamping weekend? Did the wine last? :)

So fun for Ryan - can't wait to see more! Love the pink and green on your beautiful card and huge congrats on winning the entire Verve release - woo, hoo! :)

I think I was just about as excited as you!! When you think about the odds...13 Divas, about 65 comments on each blog...ah, meant to be? And it wasn't even me picking!! I had no control over that! Oh, I wish I could see Ryan perform...I love that he's loving it too :) Helps with the motivation, eh? Is it less stressful than watching him play sports? or in a different way? Love those flowers!! And I love that sentiment...might be my thought for the day :) hugs!

Your card is just gorgeous, Lynn. I am so glad to hear that Ryan likes show choir. It is a HUGE commitment, but so worth it. My baby sis is a show choir director at her high school, and I LOVE watching the shows and going to competitions. So much fun! :0)

You lucky girl!! Congrats! How fun! I love this card today! All those polka dots make me smile! So pretty!!

Congrats on your big win! Love this wonderful card. Such a great take on the sketch.

Show choir mom huh? Me too! We have to talk. I'm overwhelmed with the commitment (it's a lot for middle school), but my daughter loves it. We'll actually be coming to your area for a competition in February (I think).

This card is so sweet and stunning, Lynn! Love love the message and I really like how you stamped the sentiment with the die cut. And YAY for FREE Verve stamps! I can't wait to see what you do with the new goodies! I always love seeing what your boys are up to. Choir is such a wholesome activity, isn't it? Way to go, Ryan!

What special moments you have for with the kids!! I can't wait til my boy is older and starts these school activities, it's very exciting to think about! I love that OA paper and the flowers, the light vs. darker pinks is so pretty! Enjoy your new goodies!! WOW! That's a good haul of loot!

{Colleen} said...

Wow so blessed! Enjoying moments with your boys, time away to scrap and now some goodies headed your way. I know you will put them to good use. Love how you have incorporated the flowers into the sketch on your card. The polka dot paper is fab.

Aimes said...

Wow! Show Choir looks like so much fun! We don't really have anything like that this side of the pond...but it does look like fun (and a lot of hard work too - but it'll pay off I'm sure!)
Woo hoo! What a fabulous win! Love the idea of a bunch of Verve goodies landing on your doorstep and speaking of Verve, your take on this sketch is fabulous!
Hugs!
