Heritage Page about someone important...

Okay, here's another challenge to hopefully inspire you. Don't feel like you have to do these challenges, I don't want them to be a chore (in fact if your tired of this, tell me to go stuff it!) ;)

This week, do a layout (or just one page) about one person (i.e. your best friend, your dog, your sister, yourself, etc.) focussing on telling something about that person. I'm kind of thinking of a heritage type page so that a couple of generations from now the person reading the book learns something about the person from your page, rather than a page about an event or activity. Make sense?

The last two challenges are kind of vague, I know... feel free to send it better ones! :)

Happy Scrapping!

Just Do a Layout!

Yay! Both babies had overlapping naps today so Alex and I had some time to do art... he painted and I scrapbooked a page in my new, not blue, baby book! So I figured I'd try again to breathe some life into our group again. Alison's Challenge for April was to "just do a layout". She issued it several weeks ago but I never passed on the message. Today I did a layout for the first time in months (February's challenge of hearts)! It's very, very simple but it's going to get me going again. I also started my March layout but Kirstin woke up so it'll have to wait. So... everyone "just do a layout", that's your challenge for this week. I'll send a photo of the pages I did later when both of my hands are free. I've kept the website up to date so far but it's looking pretty sad for this year! ;) http://bcandabcroppers.blogspot.com/.

Anyone who needs a little more of a push... here's a couple of suggestions from "Becky's Sketches":
