Do you do Challenges?

http://vicki20.blogspot.com/2011/01/challenges.htmlI have on and off last year. Well I only did one last year. It was a Brag Book Challenge with Sara Ellis. She has retired for the time due to an illness. I will burst when she comes back! Love her work!

Anyway my scrapbooking resolution was to join more. It took a while and well to be honest one kinda just felling into my lap. I got a Facebook message and thought what the heck! Well now I am actively doing 2 challenges.

First challenge that I found....searched like a mad woman and this is the one that seemed to fit pretty good. It is thru Gotta Pixel and Week 4 Challenge can be found here. What I think I like about it is that they give you a template and let you freely have fun. It is great to see what everyone comes up with. Then if you get your layout up by a certain date they enter you into a draw!

Here are my first 4 weeks....
Above layout - Kit by Connie Prince - Mmm...Milk & Cookie
The 2 payer layout - Sara Ellis - Ouchies XX & XY kits
Camera Layout - Princess of Pop - Stacey's Scraps
This layout - We've Got Game Kit - Connie Prince(Been waiting a long time to use this kit!
So far so good altho I was late for week 1 & 2 (Week 2 layout should explain it all!) I am right on track!  I think so anyway.  Hoping that this snow stops here soooooon!  GAHHHHHH!  Anyone want some?  I am willing to ship!

Now on to the 2nd Challenge I joined!  I received a message thru Facebook and thought what the heck!  It is Vicki from a Work in Progress.  I have been following her blog pretty much for as long as I have been scrapping.  Her challenges have a few rules but easy ones too.  (If I would ready and comprehend!  LOL!).  Anyway here is the page with the info for you to join the group.  Here is the page for the actual challenge rules.  So I did 2 layouts....1. cause I could and 2. cause that was the limit!  
 This kit is called Grams & Gramp's by Stacey's Scraps
This kit is by Vicki - AWP- Jack Frost

I am loving all the feed back it helps so much...especially after my crap week.  Hope this coming week is much better seeing that we have a PD day tomorrow (Monday!) I foresee a jammie day with the kids!
Take care and stay warm my snowy Canadian friends and those of you who don't know what snow is I am taking orders and will send you some!

  1. hi there Diana...
    You are such a sweetheart! My Valley Fever is much better, but I'm definitely still taking a design hiatus. I'm having tons of fun sharing fabulous bargains and cool finds on Twitter, my blog, and my new Plaid Punch fan page right now.

    I love your layouts you showed here, especially the Grams one.
