Hi! the idea for this challenge was born out of a desire to help use up the scraps I've been hanging on to for a long time. Of course, i've been trying to use them here and there on lo's, but rather than watching the pile dwindle, its still growing!

This is a very simple challenge. This challenge is a challenge in itself: to use up your scraps- on every project you make- for the entire month. There's three prerequisites to this challenge:

1) use your scraps on every project you complete this month. The scraps don't have to be paper, they can be left over add-ons from a kit, extra sticker letters that need to be used up, bits of material from other projects...use your imagination!
2) create a link to this page of your finished project(s), so we can admire your creativity and the work you put into your projects, and
3) leave comments on the finished masterpieces of the participants involved; in order to get love, you've got to give it first!

Last, but not least, have fun!

Participants:

1) twinlets mama {Ali}
2) marcilb {Marci}
3) mikailablackmon

hi!...I 'll sign up...just to clarify though...will it start in May????

Hi Marci- I thought we'd play until this month is out, and then I'd re-post the challenge again for the month of May. Maybe people aren't too crazy about starting challenges in the middle of the month...

thanks for signing up! yay!

dropping a couple off, then heading into Edmonton for the weekend. take care!~

cheers By Twinlets Mama

As usual--you do beautiful work...I am not sure since I just joined in this month...maybe they won't notice it's new...ok...I'll get one in and then again in May!

owww sounds like fun can i join??

Absolutely! There's lots of room! Welcome

I see I need to clarify a little further lol. Every project you make for the remainder of the month should be made partly or entirely out of scraps...is there anything else I missed or need to clarify?

thanks for dropping in and sharing your work! what's your name- tell me a little bit about yourself!

my name is ali (not sure if i've shared that yet) and i'm mama to twin girls that turned 2 in february. i live in canada (alberta) with my husband, kids and a grey fur ball named gregory.

well, so far, every project i've posted here is made up of paper scraps that i'm trying valiantly to get rid of. on the 'lips' lo, the ribbon bow and flower came off a gift, i think.

tfs!

Purples and black all scraps....
