Scrap and Stamp Saturday AND Day 6 of my RAKS!

Yep...the RAKS are still going! :) You didn't think they were going to stop did you? But first, let me share with you a little about an awesome challenge blog. By now you probably know that I LOVE to scrapbook and that I LOVE to stamp. So many scrappers seem scared to stamp and so many stampers seem scared to scrap. :) I love to stamp on my scrapbook pages. I want to encourage you to stop by the Scrap and Stamp blog and participate in their challenges!

**And they are having a design team call right now!!! Read all about that here.

The challenge this week was a bit difficult for me though. I just didn't seem to like the challenge...which is a challenge of 3: use tearing, a large title and stripes. Now...I'm not a huge fan of stripes or tearing. Large titles can be ok, but man...did I just have a tough time with it. I'm not really pleased with the way my layout turned out, but oh well...


Here are the close up's:


Just had to include that picture! :) It's like she's screaming "I don't like this"...just don't know if it was referring to the dressing her up or me taking her picture. :)

That cute little girl image is a digital stamp from Squiggle Stamps. She generously provided this for the DT to use on our layouts.

Hope you join us for the challenge this week! We are in need or more participants. :)

And now...

On to the RAK:


It's the new "My Family" line from Fancy Pants Designs!


Now as for the rules...they are exactly the same as yesterday and the day before and the day before...


How to get entered into the drawing for this awesome prize:

* Leave me a comment on this post! :)

For EXTRA chances to win, here are two more ways to get entered into the drawing...

* Post about this giveaway on another site (blog, group, etc.) and then leave me a link to your post! :)

* Be a follower of my blog! Over to the right you will see the "follow" section. I have never done a giveaway where you have to become a follower of my blog...I kind of always thought of that as pimping out your blog. But then I was thinking about it and here is why I decided to go ahead and do it this time... 1) What's wrong with pimping out your blog? :) and 2) I have had many faithful and wonderful followers...isn't it ok to "reward" them for following me? Afterall, shouldn't they get a little extra love from me at times. :) So yep, if you become a follower or if you are already a follower, then you have another chance to win. Simply leave me another comment stating that you are a follower! :)

So there you have it! You have all week to leave your comments. I will announce a winner on Monday March 29th.

Good luck! :) And make sure you come back tomorrow to what I will be giving away next! :)
