Cookin' Up Creations

Join us as we pay homage to the one and only "King of Rock and Roll" - Elvis Presley. Presley's energized performances and interpretations of songs, and sexually provocative dance moves make for a fun and exciting month of challenges. So grab that peanut butter and banana sandwich, put on those blue suede shoes, & tell everybody in the whole cell block to come play along with us this month.

A new Blue Plate Special challenge is posted each Monday (sketch), Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Participants have until the 3rd of the following month to complete and post their creations in the Cookin' up Creations Gallery.

Prize will be a $20 Gift Certificate to their favorite online store (random drawing).....



Today's challenge comes from an Elvis song that is constantly stuck on repeat in my head. (No idea why, it just always pops in there!) It's the song "Return to Sender".



For this challenge, please use an item from the mail (mailbox, letter, envelope, postcard, etc.), handwritten journaling, and washi tape. Here's my example (my journaling is on the tag tucked behind the photos):



Happy crafting everyone!!

Thanks, Jan. It is my grandson but he is now 18. I'm trying hard to finish all his albums before he graduates in June.
