This week...

the RAK winner is.....
**Well done** and it was your first L.O submitted for the challenges. Mail me your address when you get a gap sweetie, so I can send you a little thank-you 'something' in the post.
o----------------------------------------------o
As promised challenge #6 is as follows:

A multi photo L.O as seen in Simple Scrapbook mag...May issue (I think). They have used the grid method & kept the photo's or embellishment blocks all the same size. One designer interpreted the idea into circles which is great too. See how the designer of the 2nd L.O has cleverly cut her background paper into the block grid, keeping the design in the right sequence. I also like how the 3rd L.O has stitching criss crossed to create it's blocks.

So this is what we need to try & include:
  • A minimum of 9 blocks....photo's or otherwise is fine. The more blocks you use the more challenging the L.O.... did you notice that the 3rd L.O idea has x25 :o/
  • At least x2 different printed papers + whatever plain card stock you need.
  • At least 4 stickers (alphas don't count :o)
  • Stitching....either machine, hand, stamp or rub-on is fine.
  • Use your handwriting somewhere.
The deadline for the L.O's is the 22nd July.
Have a great day!!

Challenge time....

A good friend of mine & I were chatting over the weekend about scrapping. We have both come to the conclusion that motivation usually gets us amped to scrap more. A page call, RAK, L.O feature, etc, etc. So I have decided to put up a weekly challenge to motivate us......there are no major prizes but a small RAK is always good for the soul. All who do the challenge by next Wednesday & email me a copy of it, will get their L.O's featured here with a link to their blog.....keen??

The first L.O is one from the latest issue of Simple scrapbooks. Let's do it about someone we admire...either someone we know...or not for that matter.

Come on guys...it will be fun. Let me know if you are going to play along!
