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.

Your challenge....Use something musical in any way whether it be the photos or musical notes or any kind of blurb or favorite song. Use your imagination. Next pop up something and also double mat anything on your page. Have fun and can't wait to see what you come up with.

Never Stop Looking Up is a song by Robert Pattinson (swoon). The double mat is the blue star and stripe paper behind my photo.
