1 march 2013 scrapbooking challenge

Now here's a thoughtful and fun challenge:

What is on your "bucket list" - your list of items that you want to accomplish before you "kick the bucket".  If you have already made a layout on this subject and your list has not been updated - maybe you'd like to scrap about an item from your first list that you have already accomplished or that you want to elaborate on.

 Here's what our design team provided for this theme:

our freaking featured guest designer for february 2013!!!!

So excited to have Diana Fisher this month as our featured guest designer.  I met Diana when I used to play her AWESOME sketch challenge Sketchy Thursdays.  Broke my heart when she closed the blog - but I am so happy to still see her and her work around at places that I hang out.  She is a wonderful  designer, and has been a member of many prestigious design teams. I know you ladies will welcome her warmly, and be greatly inspired by her reveals here this month!

Diana Fisher

HI! I'm Diana Fisher and I am so excited to be guesting here for February. I have "known" Anne for a few years, back when I hosted Sketchy Thursdays, and I was thrilled when she asked me to play along here for February.

You may already know me from my design team spots on Pink Paislee, Imaginisce, Ormolu or Samantha Walker. I am also a blog coordinator for Scrapbook Circle and a DT member for Cocoa Daisy. You can also find me as a contributor to PaperHaus Magazine or on the Paper Issues team.

When I'm not scrapbooking I am the publisher for NextStepU Magazine — an education company that helps high school students prepare with their choices after graduation. I've been married to my husband for the past 8 years and we have a son who is six years old. My boys are often the subject for my scrapbook pages.

All of this keeps me busy and sane at the same time. I don't like to sit still and a constant stream of creativity keeps me going. You can visit my blog at http://designbydiana.blogspot.com. Thanks again to Anne for having me here!

Woo-freaking-hoo!  I was the lucky recipient of one of these prize packs when my name was drawn at another challenge site (Once Upon a Sketch).   It was a beautiful assortment of lovely ribbons.

Our challenge this month is to scrap about:

What will be your new year's resolution this year. What do you wish you could resolve and stick to???

If you have not made a resolution for this year, scrap about your resolution from another year. Were you successful? Would you do it again??

Here are some awesome inspirational interpretations of this theme from our design team.

1 december 2012 scrapbooking challenge

This month our Sandra Scott, who plays along regularly with us, suggested we make a generation layout.  So, we made her a guest designer this month for her great idea!  And then Dani Christina won October's draw to be guest designer for December - so we are also featuring her work this month!!

So show us your generation layout - maybe you have a wonderful 3 or 4 generation photo that you treasure?  If so, feature it.  Maybe a nice photo of your grandparents?  Then scrap it!! An object that belonged to them?  Scrap it or scrap a photo of it!
