Silly Scrappin' Challenge

For this week, we're gettin' silly!

For each layout you make from the following list, you will receive 5 points. You may only do each challenge ONCE. Also, you may not consolidate several challenges on one layout. For example, if you did a page about food (#4) with a quote from a book you had to read in school on it (#3), it will still only count as ONE of the two challenges. With the exception of challenge #10, all challenges should be completed on a layout, 6x6 or larger.

Here are the challenges:
1. Create a page using 30 or more eyelets.
2. Create a layout using colors that are complementary on a color wheel.
3. Use a quote from a book you had to read in school.
4. Scrap a page about food.
5. Create a layout about your house.
6. Make a layout inspired by a movie.
7. Use poetry somewhere on your page.
8. Incorporate both black and white and color photos into a layout design.
9. Create a layout using hand and machine stitching.
10. Create an altered object. (This one does not have to be part of a layout.)
11. Scrap a layout with more than 10 pictures.
12. Create a layout that contains no pictures of human beings. Think objects, landscapes, animals...
13. Use an Elvis lyric on your page.
14. Create a layout about a pet peeve you have.
15. Use a comic book or cartoon character on your page.
16. Create a layout that uses the title "unbelievable"
17. Create a layout using ONLY black & kraft (no other colors, even as accents, so black and white or sepia photos!!!)
18. Create a layout that incorporates "graffiti".
19. Scrap a layout with a foreign language title.
20. Use the words "love" and "hate" on the same layout.
21. Use an altered object on your layout
22. Create a layout with no cardstock
23. Use charms
24. Create a layout with an embellishment not intended for scrapbooking
25. Use AT LEAST 10 stickers on your layout… (NO ALPHAS)
26. Create a layout using 3 different striped PP's (no other PP can be used)
27. Create a layout that uses EVERY number from 1-10
28. Use brads or eyelets to create a shape
29. Create a layout that uses the word "pickle"
30. Make a layout using a really, really, really bad photo (explain when you submit it why it's bad, if it's not obvious....)

Have fun!

Winners - Ad Challenge

Robin, our impartial and intrepid judge, chose the following layouts as the winners (based on how well they used the ad for inspiration)....

First Place - Dianne (35 points)
Second Place - Andrea (25 points)
Third Place - Lynnise (15 points)

Way to go, ladies!!!

Ad Challenge Results

Well, we only had four entries this week - and all of them were for Team One! I used a random number generator to determine the points for each advertisement, and this is what it came up with:

Sketch 1 earns 3
Sketch 2 earns 4
Sketch 3 earns 9
Sketch 4 earns 8
Sketch 5 earns 5
Sketch 6 earns 7
Sketch 7 earns 2
Sketch 8 earns 10
Sketch 9 earns 6
Sketch 10 earns 1

Since our scrappers used ads 6, 3, 2, and 5, that means they earned 25 points for Team One. BUT.... since ONLY scrappers from Team One participated, that means that when I get the judging results, all _75_ points from 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will go to Team One, whoever wins.

That means our current totals are:
TEAM ONE with 1280 points
and Team Two with 1252 points

Way to go, Team One - you swept this week!

Summer Scrap-Off Challenge Six

Create a layout using one of the advertisements below as inspiration. The layouts will earn points in two ways. First, a random point value will be assigned to each ad at the end of the competition. One ad will be worth 2 points, one worth 4, one worth 6, and so on up to 20. Your layout will receive points based on which ad you chose. Next, an impartial judge will select the "top three" layouts. Those layouts will earn an additional 35, 25, or 15 points, based on ranking.

Good luck!
