Did Someone Say Prizes?

Scrapbook Challenges is running a weekend blog hop to introduce this half of the years design team.

If you have just stopped in, please join us and start at Pamela Young's blog. If your hopping along and just left Amanda's blog, you have successfully reached your next stop at Janine's Scratch Pad! This is where I post my favorite scrappy creations.

I am a wife, a mother of two tween boys, a child of God, a student in life and love, a survivor and one who loves striving to be my best. I have lived in the Northeastern part of the United States most of my life. I enjoy the change of the seasons, beaches and lakes, plains and mountaintops. I am in many ways ecclectic. My husband tells me that I am an anomoly. I often do things that seem almost in contractiction to some foundations to my character. An example that you may relate to very well is that I can be extremely organized in some areas of the house and be delighted in total chaos in others, such as my scraproom. I am a creative scrapbooker, cardmaker and crafter who loves diversity in work and style. I love featuring new and innovative techniques and designs. My favorite product is paper and my favorite technique is finding fun ways to cut into it!

Our consistent theme for the hop is this sketch, (so I'm thinking that you've seen it a few times before, (wink wink) and a big (smile!):


I used my prize from Cath Edvalson's Moxie Fab Zipper Challenge, Cosmo Cricket's Togetherness Crafting Kit. When I saw the "I love you to the moon and back" border, I thought of the following pictures from The Picture People using the moon prop. I wanted to work the sketch with those pictures, the prize kit and wanted flourishes with moon and stars! The bottom borders are wavy cut with a Creative Memories trimmer with the pennant border hand cut at the bottom and weaved together. The bunnies are cut from the Elements sheet and attached with 3D adhesive's, (as are my punched stars). If you have any questions about what I did, please do not hesitate to ask in the comments below.


So, your probably thinking, "show me the prizes!"

1. For one person who leaves a comment on all the blogs in the hop, they will get the new Spring Market collection from Webster's Pages, including chipboard buttons and twine.


2. For one person who does a layout based on the sketch and posts in the HOP ON section, they will get the Be Mine collection from Echo Park Paper Company.


3. For inviting people to join the group, one person will get a collection of adhesive from Helmar.


4. For one new member over the weekend, some new stamps from Unity and Webster's Pages.

5. And you will find a 5th prize in the Hop On section! :)

6. For one commenter or follower on my blog, Janine's Scratch Pad, one person will get The Scrap Room's January 2011 Doubleshot kit with Fancy Pants and Sassafras. Do both, if you want to double your chances.


Now hop on to Shannon’s blog." I'll be joining you!

Have a marvelous day and enjoy the hop!! Be blessed!!
