Class Time and Prizes

It's been a long week, but I did manage to make some progress on Connor's scrapbook. It's nearly finished, but I need to pick up a few things for some special pages. I plan on taking some pictures today and then will get them uploaded to my gallery.

Saturday is always a good day around The Shaker Box. There are a week of challenges posted and today is class day! Vicki is hosting a Tattered Angels class and will be working with Glimmer Mist. I can't wait! There are also some weekend contests and a new layout of the month program that you need to check out. Over the last couple of months, the site has really grown and we have a great group of women that I am glad to call my friends. If you have time today, check out all the activities going on there!

Also, I will be announcing the winner of the Making Memories album kit RAK tomorrow evening. You still have a little time to get your entry posted. I have seen a lot of great layouts and cards. Also tomorrow, I will be posting the latest Restless Sketch. Check it out and tell your friends!

Challenge #2

Good Saturday morning! After a late night scrapping here, I'm trying to get my day started while watching the rain. All is quiet in the house and everyone else is still sleeping. I thought this would be a good time to post the second challenge for the weekend. This should be an easy one to get you started.

Challenge #2 ~ Scraplift This
Scraplift the blocking pattern of this quick layout. Use what ever embellishments you choose. Remember, have your creation uploaded to a gallery and linked back here by 6pm on Sunday in order to be eligible for the Making Memories kit. More importantly, have fun!

Series Challenge!!!

Ladies, my week-end has started and I hope you are ready to do some scrapping with me. I am going to run a "Series Challenge" through Sunday. You have until 6pm to finish your projects and upload them to a gallery. Don't forget to put your link on my blog in the comment section.

Layout #1...

Create a spread related to a song. I selected "I Melt" by Rascal Flatts. On your layout, I want to see three different styles of lettering. Good luck and have fun with this!

Get Ready...

One more day and the fun begins! The girls should be here tomorrow afternoon and the scrapping will start shortly thereafter. We don't want to forget about our friends who couldn't make the trip, so I plan on posting a few challenges this weekend on my blog and at The Shaker Box. Jump right in and play along. I have a great prize kit that was donated by Making Memories and I would like to give it away to one lucky person. It includes a mini album, a paper pack and some embellishments. Here's what you have a chance to win. Now just post a link on my blog or in the gallery at TSB and let us now that it's out there.

2 More Days!

Friday will be here before you know it! It marks the beginning of the first annual Restless Creativity Crop and a much anticipated package has arrived and will be delivered tomorrow by FedEx. Mark your calendars and get ready to participate in some fun on-line challenges. We are setting a goal for everyone to create at least six cards during the weekend, which will be donated to cards for our military personnel through the website http://www.cardsforheroes.org/donatecards.html. Won't you help us help those who are stationed away from home and their families. Check back in here Friday for more details!

Challenge with a RAK

It's a new week and it's kicking off with a sketch challenge at The Shaker Box. Each week I post a sketch challenge on the message board, then each day another challenge is posted. It offers technique challenges, card challenges and more. If you haven't seen the site, sign up today and tell them I sent you! Here's the challenge posted today.

Weekend Challenge

I posted a challenge for my friends at The Shaker Box, and thought I would share it here too. It's a Book of Me challenge. This is something I started last year, but haven't made much progress on lately. So, I thought by creating a challenge I could get my mojo going.

BOM Challenge: Create a single or double page layout, anysize for your BOM. Focus the layout on what it is you hope to accomplish this year, 2009. This should be a personal goal you've set for yourself. There are no reqs for this challenge except that it must be completed by Sunday the 8th at midnight. Use whatever mediums you would like, but make certain the focus is you and your goal.

Have fun with this one and let's see your creations!

A Sketch Challenge

If you are looking for a challenge, check out my library at Restless Sketches. I am going to upload at least one new sketch each month. The sketch for January is sketch #4. I hope you enjoy it. Feel free to comment and leave a link to your creations!
