This December, we’re taking a magical trip to the Island of Misfit Toys — where every imperfect creation finds its place and every quirky layout shines! Whether your photos don’t quite match, your embellishments march to their own beat, or your color combos are just a little offbeat, this is the month to embrace the beauty of being unique.

Join us at Cookin' up Creations as we celebrate the wonderfully “imperfect” side of creativity. After all, just like a spotted elephant or a train with square wheels, every scrapbook page deserves a little love and a whole lot of sparkle.

So dust off those forgotten supplies, rescue those unfinished pages, and let’s give our “misfit” projects a happy home — one glittery layout at a time!

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).....

The airplane from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is a misfit toy because, in the film, it's presented as an airplane that can't fly, making it useless for children who want a plane to soar, and so it ends up on the Island of Misfit Toys with other imperfect toys, though its specific problem is left a bit ambiguous.

For your page please include:
The sketch below, something related to flying, and some ripped paper on your page.

I used photos of the Golf Tournament where my husband was a caddy.

Here is the sketch
