Challenge 411 ~ Journaling Challenge
Hello and welcome to another Challenge 411, where I get you the 411 on the challenges out there in our digi-community! This week’s challenge is one I recently came across at RAKScraps, called Journaling Challenge! Here are some questions I asked the challenge’s host Angela:
Q. Who is the host?
A. The Journaling Challenge is held at RAKScraps.com and is being hosted by Angela Coles (aka AngelaUK)
Q. What is the challenge about, what are the challenge rules?
A. One of the most fantastic things about scrapbooking, as opposed to just putting photos in an album is the ability to include words. The words that tell us a little bit about who a person is, what they do, and what they are like. Words can also tell us about what is happening and why it’s important to us. This challenge is designed as a source of inspiration and to help people add journaling to their layouts.
The rules are quite simple – have a go at creating a layout using the journaling idea given in the challenge. If a layout is posted in the RAKScraps Journaling Challenge Gallery by the end date, then a posting prize is given.
Q. Where can we find more info about joining in on the fun?
A. Check out the Journaling Challenge Board at RAKScraps.com

Q. How often are the new challenges posted?
A. A new challenge is posted on or around the 6th of each month, and runs for a month.
Q. Why should I check out this challenge, any incentives?
A. If a layout is posted in the RAKScraps Journaling Challenge Gallery by the end date, then a posting prize is given.
Q. Is there an ?I heart your challenge/site? blinkie available for fans?
A. There is a RAKScraps Blinkie available. I don’t have one specifically for this challenge but if people wanted one, that could be arranged.
