Hey There, Race Fans!

March 14th, 2008

I’m slacking.  I know.  Here we are coming up on the deadline for Challenges #5 and #6 and I haven’t even shared our third and fourth submissions.

The third challenge ended up being an optional one because the sponsor’s prize had a cost involved.  It wasn’t a big deal - just $5 to cover shipping costs for a CD of digi supplies valued at about $25.  In the end, Digital Scrapbook Memories resolved it by making the challenge optional and offering an optional alternative prize.  The challenge was to make a page about ourselves and fill more than half the page with journaling. No other restrictions.  Both Jen and I completed this one (mainly because Jen’s a go-getter and a prolific scrapper while I’m plagued by guilt that she’s shouldering our burden) and here’s what we came up with…

The fourth challenge was similar, in that journaling was a big part of the assignment.  Our instructions from Oscraps were to "Spill It!"  We had to tell a story - funny, sad, angry, whatever - and pair it with one large picture and the use of a blending mode somewhere in the layout.  Also, our journaling was required to take up at least one fourth of the page.  Get it?  One-fourth… fourth challenge?

So here’s what we did…

We’re both hard at work on our layouts due this Sunday and I’ll show you the results as soon as I get Jen’s.  Just wait until you see the way our challenge number five collided.  It’s another of those strange coincidences.

Tschüss!
