Scrapbook Challenges Blog Hop! :) TONS OF PRIZES

This is a long post with tons of info, but I promise it will all be worth it, there are TONS of PRIZES!!!!

Welcome to Scrapbook Challenges seventh DT blog hop! :) It officially starts at 10am (MT) and will go through Sunday at Midnight (MT)--which is the deadline for qualifying for prizes.

I am your first stop on the hop.

In case you don't know...Scrapbook Challenges is a fun group filled with wonderful people. We have weekly sketches and challenges. There are monthly sponsors for the group with fabulous prizes to win. I just know if you give it a try, you will love it there as much as I do. I am looking forward to the new things we have in store for this next term. But how about we start with our new DT! I find each and every one of them totally inspiring, and you will get to meet them all today! Sadly, we are also saying goodbye to some wonderful people, but they are only leaving the DT...they will still be around in the group. :)

Today, every blog you hop to will have a layout that they made that is based on this sketch created by yours truly:

OR for those who prefer two pagers, we have this one:

Here's what I did for the sketch...

I used the Sweet Season line from Webster's Pages that I recently won. :) My chipboard is fromMagistical Memories. And I used Helmar to put it all together. Who incidentally is our sponsor this month at Scrapbook Challenges (check that out here). The products I used are theQuick Fix Adhesive Runner, Liquid Scrap Dots and Premium Craft Glue.

Here are some close up's of my layout:

And of course, the best news is that we have lots of FABULOUS PRIZES to give away today! So let me get on with all the ways you can win a prize. :)

Meet Helen:

About Helen, from Helen:

Year 5 of living by the sea with my soul mate, our eclectic collection of kids & cats & our live-in helper - makes for a creative life, filled with interesting conversation, colour, hope & possibility. Documenting the journey through my passions - photography, journaling & the art of scrapbooking. A life fraught with challenges but my glass is always half full. I choose to collect pretty underwear, sleep under percale, embrace the warm Indian Ocean air, count the ships every day, drink cider with lemon & sing along to the Parlotones, because life is too short for my glass to be half empty.

Ok...now let's get hoppin...

Hop on over to the FABULOUS and Wonderfully Creative Jolanda !!!!!

Oh, and thanks for joining us today! :)

Hip Hop

Due to being sick this week, I am not participating in hip hop today, but that doesn't mean you have to miss out...start the hop here.

Did you see the Kit of the Month from Unity for January? It is just fabulous. Here it is:

AND you can WIN ONE HERE on the Moxie Fab blog. :)

Still feeling icky today. :( And I have stuff piling up to do, like laundry, cleaning, and CHA work. Yesterday I pretty much laid on the couch all day...as much as possible anyways. Thank goodness for coloring books and movies that helped keep Eryn entertained.

Ok...well I will be back tomorrow with a "real" post with a real project in it! :) And it will be big, lots of giveaways! :)

Have a great day!

Check it out!

Check out the Fancy Pants blog today. :) I have a fun layout up and the rest of the girls did a great job too...we are showcasing the Love Birds Alphabet Stickers.

I am sick today. :( Was yesterday too. My bed is calling my name. Think my kids will sleep all day so I can too? Didn't think so.

Have a great day!

Fancy a layout about me?

Just a quick post today to share a layout with you. It was already posted on the Fancy Pants blog, but I haven't posted it here yet.

I used the "Love Birds" collection from Fancy Pants. Here are some close up's:

I'm having a hard time getting back into the swing of things after the holidays. Austin is too...he is really having a hard time waking up in the morning. Hopefully we can get back to normal soon.

Have a fantastic day!!!
