May 2011: Scrapper's Portfolio & Tracker

Here is my spot!!!

3 - National Scrapbook Day is May 7th. Scrap about your love of scrapbooking! - 1 Point + NR point (At the Crop) = 2 Points


10 - Recipe challenge: 3 photos, 4 circles, 3 strips of paper, 2 frames, 1 string, 10 flowers or stars, 8 buttons, 3 metal pieces and a one word title. This is the base of the recipe - and you can add more ingredients as you see fit. - 1 Point


15 - Choose one of these beautiful words and use it as a title on your page. - 1 Point


18 - You make me happy when skies are gray…use gray paired with another color on your page. Some eye candy to inspire and this one too. - 1 Point


22- Create an ampersand like this one using lots of different patterned paper strips. - 2 Points


23 - In 25 meaningful words tell us who you are - no sentence structure required just throw the words around that say YOU! (e.g. Chocaholic, Dancer, Positive, Energetic, Athlete, Mother, Organizer) Make your page a tribute to you; use a variety of fonts and alphabets and your 25 words on the layout. - 2 Points + NR Point (Freeze Frame) = 3 Points


28 - Splatter or scatter at least two different colors of ink or paint on your page. - 2 Points

33 – Create a homemade dry erase board! Basically you can design anything you'd like and print it out, then slip it into a frame and add a string with a dry erase marker tied to it. This board would make a great Teacher Appreciation or Mother’s Day gift. - 10 Points


Surprise Blog Challenge - use either the word “Surprise” or one of the following synonyms in your title or journalling; or message if that works better for “hybrid-ers”; (Synonyms: amaze, astound, awe, bewilder, confound, confuse, dazzle, marvel, miracle, overwhelm, perplex, shock, wonder, wonderment).
Be sure to put “Sue’s Surprise Challenge” when completing your portfolio thread post and let us know which of the words you used. - 1 Point (word - wonder)
