Lisa's Challenge...if you choose to accept it!

As most of you who know me probably know, I love a scrapbook challenge. Both the giving and the receiving. I usually get my fix on any number of challenge Blogs or websites, or by asking my scrap-girlfriends for their photos or to give me some random stuff to use. The past couple of months I have been creating challenges for the girls at the store, by way of our staff kit for the month. I had a blast putting together some embellies and paper and goodies from my stash to put in the kit. But there were some complaints that I was giving them TOO MUCH STUFF and that made all of the pages look the same (as if that's even possible). But I heard the talk, and have stepped down from the role of Kit-maker. At the store. That doesn't prevent me from making kits for you, my loyal Blog readers!

So welcome to the first ever Lisa Challenge Kit. I will be doing these semi-periodically (whenever I get the inkling) and offering them up to you on a first-come-first-served basis. There will be no winners (and therefore no losers!)...just consider it a gift from me to you!

The standard rules apply:

You must use all of the items in your kit, or at least part of each one

You can do any size layout, or other project

Email me a photo (or scan) of your layout and I will post it here on my Blog.

There will be a "due date" for each kit, but I'm willing to be pretty flexible with this rule and will post your pages regardless of when you get them back to me!

There will be a separate "challenge" component with each kit in addition to whatever product I include.

All of the "rules" will be included in each kit you receive, in case you forget, as well as a list of all the items in the kit and the challenge.

I will post a photo of the first kit once I get it all together. If you want in, just email me (lisakercher@telus.net) with your name and address so I can send it out to you.

Remember...I am doing this for the fun of it all, and to get you guys scrapping more, and so I can see more of your work (for those of you without Blogs and the like). There is no commitment to take each kit. If you want this one, but not the next, that's fine. And I will be giving you plenty of time to complete your layouts, as I know how slow some of you work! and that not everyone has the kind of time I have to commit to scrapping random stuff!

P.S. for those TM employees out there reading this, I have a separate challenge for you, but you can still totally participate in the Blog kits! There are 2 "staff kits" at the store RIGHT NOW...and since Jill doesn't want to play, they're up for grabs. Chan already snagged one! And they are not for the store wall (there will be a separate kit that Jill's putting together) so you are not obligated to do one. They are totally just for you to have fun with...and I will be posting the finished products here as well!
