Hello my Bookin’ Friends. Today was the “final” day of the November Challenge. I will leave the gallery folder open so if you decide to upload a “food” layout we can see it. I’m considering offering a small “prize” for the challenges. I would randomly draw a winner for maybe a $20 gift card to a craft store. What do you think? I’ll think about it over the holidays.. maybe it will be something I’ll start in January.. what do you all think? Each person who uploads a layout that is in the monthly challenge “theme” would earn one entry.
I saw a cute idea tonight on Ali Edwards’ blog.. making a button tree! It goes along with the fabric tree I saw on the JoAnn’s website also… both super cute ideas. Not sure if I will get around to either one, but I can dream!
Happy Bookin’!

Here is my Monthly Challenge layout. It’s from Thanksgiving 2006. My daughter enjoyed more the drinking of sparkling cider than eating any of the food.
All the elements (minus the font) came from Kim’s Scrappin’.
The Thanksgiving font, I found at WonderFonts.com.

After skipping the month of October for the monthly challenge, I have a new challenge for November. Since this is the month of Thanksgiving in the U.S. our challenge will be a layout about food. It doesn’t have to be a Thanksgiving layout, anything about food.. apple picking…. berry picking… baby’s first food… halloween candy… your favorite food.. baking cookies… anything about food.
The challenge will end on November 24th. So get bookin’ and upload your creations to the Monthly Challenge Forum!
Happy Bookin’!

I’ve done a bit of updating of the blog for the changing of the seasons. The background with the leaves I made myself with my editing software and a stamp that is with it. For the color I used color from the pumpkin. I got the fabulous pumpkin at SkullBlossom. There are all kinds of fun things there for scrapbooking.
Don’t forget, the September Monthly Challenge is over on Tuesday! Get in your “school experience” layouts.
Happy Bookin’!

Hello all you “bookers”! I just uploaded my July Challenge Layout to the forums. Come by and check it out. Just click on the forums link under “Bookin’ Stuff”, or click the link above. I did another digital layout. Mostly because I don’t have any pictures developed, so it was just easier to pull something together on the computer. LOL I look forward to seeing your layouts.
Happy Bookin’!

I put up the Bookin’ Challenge for July on the forums. Check it out!
I hope everyone out there had a wonderful Independence Day! We hung out at my parents’ house, then went to the nearby lake to watch a fireworks display. This year daughter did pretty well and wasn’t scared of them, she was able to put her hands over her ears at the loud ones. All around good time.
Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend.
Happy Bookin’!

I uploaded a new layout to the forums. I’ll let you find it, instead of giving you a direct link. Okay, well, I will tell you where it is. It’s my submission for the June Challenge. If any of you have a summer themed layout you would like to share, feel free. I will have the July Challenge up in a few days.
