Cookin' Up Creations

Ladies and Gentlemen! Boys and Girls! Step Right Up for another Fun Filled Month of Challenges here at Cookin' Up Creations!! Please join us as we Clown Around all month long!

A new Blue Plate Special challenge is posted each Wednesday and Saturday, and participants have until the 3rd of the following month to complete and post their creations. Prize will be a $10 Gift Certificate to their favorite online store (random drawing).....
*any month that we have more than 50 completed layouts/creations, the prize will be a $20 Gift Certificate instead of $10.

Almost every circus I've attended had a menagerie of WILD ANIMALS -- both in pens or cages and as part of the circus entertainment. I created a two-page layout of the animal menagerie at the Renaissance Faire that granddaughter Charleigh attended with her parents. Charleigh was very brave and petted a big snake and a lizard, as well as more familiar animals.



Please post your completed projects, both here and in the forum gallery, no later than Nov. 3 for a chance at winning the monthly prize drawing. The winner of the drawing will receive a $10 gift certificate to the online store of your choice

The updated Wednesday challenge is up now.

So is the challenge to do a layout using animals?

Yes..... they can be zoo or circus animals, wild animals, pets, etc. Sorry, I should have at least posted the challenge.... The finished layout will be posted soon. Just need to add journaling and title.

I didn't think I had any photos for this but then I remembered the trip to the zoo with the grandkids from back in 2017. Finally glad to get that scrapped. (the first page doesn't have animals in the photos but I used the little rub on animals since it was from the same trip )

Great pages, Sherri! I love how you interpreted the theme.


NOTE: The terms "wild" and "exotic" can be interpreted any way you like. A two-year-old child can be "wild", or a teen girl experimenting with hair and makeup can be "exotic", for instance.

I fox and cat embellishments on this page:

I didn't have any pics for this and no zoo stickers handy so I chose to make an accordion book of wild life animals. it is all ready for camping pics!
