This is undoubtedly the busiest thing i've ever done, and it ended up having more layers than Dunkin' has Donuts. Also, i had trouble converting it to a postable file, so it prob'ly looks like doodoo. But, it was fun to work on--thanks for the play!

Nice job macman. It's great that you were able to include so many of us in your image. Especially like what you did with goofup's image.

Great job macmaam, I see I'm holding up my end of the table. Love it. I'm right there with you on the layers. Don't know how many I had but there was a few. That is the busiest I've ever done too.

You should all come gather around my table in 'real life'... wouldn't THAT be fun?!

(Perhaps we should wait for Spring though, huh? It's warmer then... and the pond is much prettier with lilies and lotus blooming. )

That's a fun one, Lisa. Well done.

If you are inviting us all to your garden party, you'll need to tell us where it's at. East Coast?

Macmaam,

Thanks for letting me come to the party . . . . what an honor for someone who has only been here a couple of weeks. I keep telling my kids I've ALWAYS been a "party person" -- this proves it!!

Great job on the challenge. That many layers would surely have sent me to the frige for a drink!!!

I'm glad you're all having fun at the party. I was a little nervous about using people's images, but it's good you're all being sports about it.


BTW--PLEASE don't consider my image for judging

After much difficult deliberation on the many wonderful entries for this challenge, I proudly announce my choice for the champion as:

Valentine

Her Bride entry just looks so natural... so unaltered that I wouldn't have known it was Photoshopped if the original photo wasn't mine.

If I were to list a second place winner, I'd have to give it a tie between too many others, so I won't do it.

Well done, each and every one! So creative and diverse... You really made this fun for me.

So, what's up next, Valentine?
