Blogging…

Helllooooooo out theeeeeeere…….

Did I just hear an echo????

Not sure if anyone’s still reading this, I haven’t blogged in ages… I just don’t have time or feel inspired to write much lately. But I have taken on a position on Kristin Cronin-Barrow’s blog as a weekly writer so if you’d like to join me there every Thursday I’d love to “see” you there!

I will be doing a weekly post about journaling, and I’m hoping to really improve my journaling abilities with it myself. Usually I’m lucky if I even put a date on my layouts… lol.

The first Thursday of each month will be a journaling challenge.

Second Thursday will be filled with journaling prompts to help you along with the challenge.

On the third Thursday of the month I’ll show you my layout for the challenge.

And finally on the fourth Thursday of each month I’ll make you up a little journaling freebie

So I hope that if anyone’s still subscribed to my blog, that you will join me every Thursday at KCB’s blog!

Win a 10$ coupon from KCB!

Want a chance to win a 10$ coupon to Kristin Cronin-Barrow’s store?! Then check out the challenge that I just posted on the KCB CT blog! It’s a "fresh" new challenge, and if we get enough response… I’ll start doing regular challenges giving you chances to win KCB coupons every month!

Challenge 411 ~ Alphabet Shoot

Hello readers, I found another great challenge for you to check out! Don’t know what a Challenge 411 is? Well, it’s where I get you the 411 on the challenges out there in our digi-community! This week’s challenge is one I stumbled upon at Scrapbook Graphics called Alphabet Shoot, is it an ABC album? An All About Me album? It’s both! Here are a few questions I asked the challenge’s host:

Q. Who is the host?

A. Well, I am.  Stephanie O’Neill.

Q. What is the challenge about, what are the challenge rules?

A. It’s pretty simple.  It’s a bi-weekly challenge where we go through each letter of the alphabet, like an ABC book. It is also an All About Me book too.  Each letter has a topic (A is for Artist, B is for Black and White) which needs to be specific to you, the participant. So, you end up with an ABC – All About Me book to keep to yourself or share with your family! We scrap about family, friends, pets and more – why not celebrate ourselves!!

Q. Where can we find more info about joining in on the fun?

A. Every topic is posted at Scrapbookgraphics.com in the challenges section Alphabet Shoot Challenges.  Each time a new Alpha is submitted, a new posting is listed.

Q. How often are the new challenges posted?

A. New challenges are posted every two weeks, so Monday, February 4th is the next one….but you don’t have to do them in order – join when you can and do the past ones when you can!

Q. Why should I check out this challenge, any incentives?

A. Incentives! Yes!!! How about free mega kits. Joining this particular challenge and all the other fun challenges @ SBG is rewarding. Every time you complete a challenge you earn points. Register @ SBG and earn points. Those points then are applied to an end of the month (YES, every month you get a free mega kit) mega kit give away!  It’s awesome!  Check this out:  February Spirit Club @Scrapbookgraphics.

Q. Is there an “I heart your challenge/site” blinkie available for fans?

A. You know what? We don’t have one for Alphabet Shoot, but I’m gonna get one! I’ll send it to you when it is completed! But for now, how about our Spirit Club Blinkie? It works for all our challenges.

Q. Any other info you would like scrappers to know about your challenge?

A. It’s a learning experience. We are learning so much about ourselves and one another. It will take us through some tough questions and topics, but will bring together a fantastic keepsake book for each of us to look back on….and the information we are passing on to our family is an added bonus!

I hope this inspires a lot of you scrappers out there to come and visit us @ Scrapbookgraphics, we’re a fun group of gals who offer really great challenges, kits and inspiration! Along with all that, the designers are fabulous!
