Do you need motivation to scrap during the summer?  Well Scrapdango has just the event for you.  Starting tomorrow, July 1st through the end of the month, we will have our annual L.O.A.D. (Layout a Day) challenge.  The design team will bring you daily inspiration which you can use or not.  There will be weekly prizes, LOADS (pun intended) of fun and the big grand prize of a fabulous Scrapdango kit.  You don't have to actually complete a layout a day.  You can scrap a little or a lot and still be eligible for prizes.  So sign in on the message board here and join us tomorrow for the first dose of daily inspiration.

Member Monday!

We all had such a fabulous time with the 'Totally Rad Crop" and the winner was recently announced to be Kristin (Kzfoug)!!!! So I thought I would showcase a few of her awesome creations

Kristin has a great fun style that really makes her projects outstandingly awesome!

June 25 Means

it's only 6 months until Christmas. I bet most of you didn't want to hear that.

Do you aspire to make your Christmas cards this year? Start early and it will be much easier. Two cards a month will give you 12 cards to send to your 12 favorite people, or one card a week will give you 26 cards. What do you think? Anyone want to start making Christmas cards now?

For today's member Monday, I thought I would introduce you to two new members of our community with the same name.

We have Kristin (kzfoug) who lives in Cypress, Texas with her two boys and husband. She keeps busy with her family and a job that she just started. She did manage to find some time to participate in our crop though. Here's one of her creations of her son playing in the pool. I love these bright, summer colors.


We also have Kristen (KristenS). She also leads a busy life but found some time last week to fit in some scrapping. I love all the flowers and embellishments on this layout.


To see more of their creations, check them out in the gallery.

Reveal Day - Ellen

I wanted to try something a little different for right now...I wanted to let each DT shine and have their own blog post to spotlight their fabulous creations.

The talented DT did a fabulous job with the awesome kit!

Ellen ROCKED the Spice kit......look at all of these awesome creations!







Fabulous inspiring work!

STILL using my May Spice Kit!

Hi Everyone! Ellen Sosnoski here with a quick tutorial on adding some pizzazz to your layouts with "old stuff".

I found these photo corners when I was doing some re-organizing in my scraproom and thought....hmmmmmmmmmm...I can do something fun with these!

So, if you know me, you know I LOVE my Cuttlebug :):):)

Now these corners are self adhesive so you need some wax paper. Remember, you want a tight design since these photo corners are small, you will get more of an impression on them.

This is what it will look like when you are done running it through...

Peel off and trim of the excess and then layer them one on top of the other....

Here is the final layout....

And a close up of how I used them. Again, Using the May Spice kit.
