National Scrapbooking Day Challenges:

1. Our first challenge comes from our design team. Here's what Nikki wants you to do: In honor of National Scrapbooking day, try something completely out of the ordinary for you. Pick something you normally would not do: ink, circles, stamping, several different fonts, paint...whatever you've been wanting to try but are too afraid, just do it! Post your layout in the Cut Above Scrappin' Yahoo Gallery with *NSD 1* in the title.
2. Are you ready for another challenge? Ok, this one is something everyone can do. Create a card using cardstock and at least two embellishments (Prima flowers, ribbon, brads, stickers/tags...you choose!). Post it in the Cut Above Scrappin' Yahoo Gallery with *NSD 2* in the title. Have fun!
3. Here's another challenge from Nikki...Scraplift yourself! Take a past layout that you have done that you just love. Then decide on which elements of that LO to keep. Maybe the title positioning, the layering, the flowers, or maybe all of it! Maybe you just want to change the colors or flip the layout or make it 8.5x11 instead of 12x12. Then pick a new photo or photos and create a new layout similar to your old one. Post your old layout and then your new one so we can see the similarities. Remember to put *NSD 3* in your title so we can enter you into the drawing.
4. Jen has an idea for you as well. In honor of 5/05 create a card, altered item or layout using 5 items (like 5 brads, 5 circles, 5 Prima flowers). Upload your project in the Cut Above Scrappin' Yahoo gallery with *NSD 4* in the title.
5. And our final challenge for tonight is from Shana. Scrap some photos about National Scrapbooking Day. For example, if you went to a crop or just hung out in your pj's all day. Create a layout about how you celebrated the day! Be sure to upload it into the user gallery and put *NSD 5* in the title.
