Come on over to Scraptivity and join us for a contest.

Scraptivity’s Scrap Around The World In 80 Days Contest!

Contest Starts – Monday, May 11, 2009
Final date to sign up – You may miss 1 out of the 8 challenges, so even if you miss Challenge #1 you can sign up all the way until the last day of Challenge #2 as long as you complete #2 that day. The closing date of #2 is May 30th.
Contest Ends – Wednesday, July 29, 2009

Challenges – A new challenge/country will be posted every 10 days. Leading up to each one, there will be clues posted, so you can guess which country we’ll be visiting, just for fun

Passport – We will provide a Passport image. Everyone can use this to keep track of their completed challenges. We’ll also provide a “passport stamp” image for each country. As you complete the project for that country, add the stamp to your Passport. You can do it digitally if you have software for that, or you can print out your Passport, then print out each stamp, cut it out, and stick it on. Please upload your updated Passport to the gallery each time you complete a challenge and delete your old one.

Tracking - There will be a thread posted in the contest section of the forum for each challenge/country. Participants will need to upload their project to the gallery (file size under 100 k and less than 500x500 pixel image sizes) and post a link or IMG on that country’s thread. Also, include the link or IMG for your updated Passport in the thread when you post your project image.

Where to upload your project and Passport – There is a special section set up in the Gallery to keep track of this contest. It is here:

Rules – Participants must have an account in the Scraptivity forum to be able to post. No purchase is necessary. All project images must be uploaded by the deadline for that challenge to be included. Projects may be scrapbook layouts or other items, and this will be specified when the challenge is posted. Participants may miss one out of the eight challenges. By signing up, participants agree to abide by the rules of the contest as stated above, and the rules of the Scraptivity forum.

DD and I - collaborative effort











DD and I made these for her fellow Brownie Troop members for a year end gift.


I learned a valuable lesson on letting my perfectionism go, and letting a little girl have fun creating. Two ATG tape rolls, and one bottle of glossy accents later, these things will NEVER come apart. And since they are going to other 8 year olds, that is probably good.
Due to their being little girls in the picture I have cut all identifable pictures out to conserve privacy.

For Janice







Never say with grief "she is no more"



Say with thankfulness "she was"
