Sneak Peak for Challenge.

By

These are the files I have so far for the challenge. And a few more details. You can download the entire set and use whatever you’d like to use in a layout of any kind. You will need to email me to get the link for the download. If we get alot of participants then we will seperate the polls by some variation… maybe… type of submission.. or number of pieces used.. something. The polls at Paperthreads only hold up to 10 and if someone decides to submit a small layout versus a large layout maybe we can break it down like that. So the voting is a little more balanced, but we shall see how many would like to participate.
The only rules I have comes up with so far is.. You have to use at least one of these pieces. You can download them all. and they need to be up by the 4th. May 3rd is National Scrapbooking Day, but I figure why not use that entire day to craft and enjoy yourself. I should have them all ready for you to download by Thursday and I may have some more to add to it. Some of these are new concepts for me that I am rolling out or working on. So it will be interesting to me to see who takes up the challenge of the more unique ones. (i.e. the Life’s a Beach is a foldable. I cut this on a two toned paper and folded a portion of it down) And others are pieces I have had but havent had anything to put them with. There is definitely room for a few more so I will keep digging and see what I can come up with. I will explain some of them tomorrow and the next day.

I will be offering the files in WPC, AI, GSD, KNK & SCUT.

Here’s my sneak peak to get you thinkin’. Have a wonderful evening!
Enjoy!

Hello to everyone!

First and foremost I will have a preview of the Challenge download up by Thurs. I am going to work on it tonight for a while and tomorrow afternoon and hope to have it all done. Then you can email me and I will send you the link to download the whole thing. You are welcome to use whatever parts of it you would like.

Next….. just some ramblings…

So I have been visiting some new blogs lately. I am loving them all. But my super fantabu friend Lori had an announcement on her site. Did you see? She is opening up a store so you can buy her files pre-cut. I thought this was pretty cool. Lori loves paper. Loves loves loves it. So this is perfect for her. Her files are super cute and what a great addition to her repetoire. She also is having a Grand Opening Sale at the store and at Paperthreads to celebrate. way to go Lori Congrats!!!!!

Bingo at Paperthreads this time has been beautiful. The theme was flowers. Jen has been running it and man are the flowers they are posting over their are beautiful. I am most impressed and find myself visiting just to see the different flowers.

Thank you to to everyone who participated in my sale. I greatly appreciate your support. And I got an email from a lady who said I wasn’t publicizing that the QMC was closing for membership that she woulda missed it. So hence the banner,but I am going to make it a tad bit smaller. wow!. I feel like I mention it all the time. So now you can just see it. i hope no one misses it. If so, there will be new files for the next quarter.

Speaking of which… **** would the recently pregnant lady who checked my blog from an iphone while on bedrest email me please. I seem to have lost your email address. **Thanks mucho.

Well I must run and help my son understand the definition of picking up the living room. I asked him if he was done and he said “yes, because I can walk through it” hmm. Maybe a little clarity is needed. It wasn’t that bad when I left the living room.

Oh did I tell you my hubby is hobbling along on a sore ankle and probably needs crutches, but I am doubting he will get them. hmm.. I’ll save that one for later. It’s always interesting and fun!

Enjoy!
