National Scrapbook Day!

Yesterday was such a busy day for me that I decided to make today (Sunday, May 8th) my NSD! As Rebecca mentioned in her previous blog, Robyn aka My Pink Stamper celebrated NSD hosting an all day event filled with challenges and giveaways! So join the fun at http://www.mypinkstanper.com

Alright, here are rules and guidelines for the challenges...

*You may only enter once for each challenge.

*Even though this is National SCRAPBOOK Day, your projects do not need to be limited to layouts. Feel free to make a card, scrapbook page, mixed media, or 3D item for your entry as long as you are in the challenge theme.

*Use what you have! Do your BEST with your own supplies. It will truly be a challenge for all of us that way. :)

*It must be a project that you made SPECIFICALLY for the challenge and not previously. When you are posting it on your blog, please link back to mypinkstamper.com so that your readers will know what challenges you are referring to.

*There will be a new challenge posted every hour but I will not be closing this until Monday night so those who need to participate later still can. However, it is truly a challenge if you try to complete one in the hour.

Yay! I'm so excited!

MPS- Challenge #2

For this challenge we were asked to make a manly card or scrapbook page using Kraft cardstock. I was looking and looking in my paper stacks and I found my LAST sheet of Kraft paper!! I was thinking two things when I found it, 1. Thank God! So I can participate and 2. I need to go buy more! :/ I decided to do another scrapbook page because well I just need to do as many as I can and today is the perfect day for that! It's a page for my son's scrapbook..I can't wait to add pictures!:) On to the next challenge...

Happy National Scrapbook Day!! (Challenge #1)

My Pink Stamper has been holding challenges at www.mypinkstamper.com all day long for National Scrapbook Day! My family and I have been gone all day and so now it's time for me to play catch up!:) Here is my first entry, the challenge is to make something, anything that has to do with cupcakes! I decided to do a 12 x 12 scrapbook page because I am VERY behind...Here it is..quick and easy..now I have to go to do the next!:)
