THE ART OF GIVING

THE ART OF GIVING: Thanks for stopping by and getting involved in this great opportunity. In starting off the new year, Christine and I decided to put together a challenge blog that would not only provide you with inspiration and free goodies, but to also let you know about the many ways we can "PAY IT FORWARD" to others in our lives...in simple and GIGANTIC ways. We hope that in combining both inspiration and giving to others, we can all make this world a better place, one layout, card, and gesture at a time. Thank you for taking this journey with us.

Being a Mom Means....Challenge  

Wednesday, May 12, 2010

Well …ALL YOU Moms out there, it has been a few good days  since Mother’s day has passed,so we are thinking that you have probably got your photos uploaded and are ready to scrapbook them from mother’s day. Or perhaps you have another photo that you just adore of you and your kids that you would like to scrap. This prompt is just for all the moms out there. It is a simple one…..



Our challenge, this time around is:


To Use the prompt…”Being a mom means”….. You may use this directly on your layout or just use it as words of inspiration. We would love to see what you come up with.






Here is what the DT came up with to share with you :0)


Julie's Layout

Illyse's Layout

Cher's layout


Vicki's Layout

Christine's Layout


Our challenge will be sponsored by the very talented Jennifer Priest. Jennifer is a wonderful designer, instructor and philanthropist. She is an amazingly talented gal. She certainly has a lot to share and has decided that she wanted to share a little bit of her talent with you! One lucky winner will win a kit from Jennifer, to make this beautiful book designed by Jennifer Priest herself!




like what you see…go check out Jennifer’s blog to see where she is teaching or even her ETSY shop The Hydrangea Hippo to get your hands on some of the cute little embellies that she uses to make some of her unique creations.


Thank you Jennifer..We appreciate your generosity and your wonderful inspiration!

Okay ladies we can’t wait to see what is in store for us. This challenge will run from today Thurs, May 13th, till Friday June 4th. That gives you just over 3 weeks to post us a link to your work, in your comment! A winner will be announced on Sunday, June 6th.

We have been noticing a lot of new faces around here and so many wonderful entries. We just wanted to thank you for your enthusiasm and for passing the word around.  Thank you for scrapping it forward!  If you are ever interested in sponsoring our site please contact us via our email above. 

Thank you and big hugs!

Christine

    Here's my take : http://www.flickr.com/photos/faithbasedpages/4332694230/in/pool-1037196@N22

    The whole photo lifts up with LOTS of journaling underneath about my feelings of letting my children grow up and how I'll always - always love them and want the best for them - etc
