Map It! Monday!

Happy Monday Stampers!  Did you stamp anything this past week?  Kiddos are back in school so I am hoping to get some fabulous projects done this week. 

I'm very excited!  Wednesday I am having some very good friends over and we are going to create!  It's always fun to be creative with friends.

For today's map I chose another 12 x 12 scrapbook page.  I just had some inspiration and wanted to make it like a Tic Tac Toe game.  You can tell by the Tempting Turquoise how I ALWAYS place my X or O.  :)

Why not give this layout a try?  Don't forget to take a picture so I can feature you as a guest designer.

Next week there won't be a Map It! Monday!  It's Labor Day and that means family day for me.  My entire family gets together and has breakfast at 6 a.m. and then wait for the Rock Island parade to start.  It's one of my most favorite days of the year.  So here is wishing you all a relaxing Labor Day!

Map It! Monday

Hello Stampers!  Wow, the summer is just about over.  My oldest grandson James, returned to 3rd grade last week.  My youngest grandson Robbie, goes back on Wednesday.  So we spent last week just hanging out together.  They are not brothers but cousins so last week was their last full days and I know they already miss each other.

Well on to this week's design challenge.  I know this looks like a scrapbook page but what it actually is, is a tri-fold card.  When you create your design, it doesn't have to be Christmas, just a tri-fold card.  That's the challenge.

I'm so excited...I have all of my classes on the calendar throughout 2011!  Currently they are listed on Facebook but I will be getting an email out to everyone.  Until then...

Happy Stamping!

Happy Monday Stampers!

I am trying to get my Christmas mojo on so I thought  for this week's challenge I would do a Christmas 12 x 12 scrapbook page.  I have a big vendor show coming up in November and I plan on doing a Stampin' Up! booth along with handmade crafts using Stampin' Up! products, hence the need for myChristmas mojo!

So for this week's challenge, make a scrapbook page.  Any size is fine.  Design something for two photos and an area for journeling.  Also part of the challenge is to use stamps not just embellishments or punches.

Use the layout I have show but you can turn it any direction to suit your needs and/or personal taste.  It doesn't have to be Christmas, that is just what I chose.  Okay stampers, show me what you've got!

Don't forget to take a photo of your project, or a scan, and email it to me.  I am dying to feature one of you as a "guest designer"!

Happy Stamping!
