SHCG Guidelines

SHCG Terms:
* Submit 2 contributions per month to the Scrap Happenzz Layouts Critique Thread for critique. Contributions may be in the form of los, sketches, photos, cards, and various "scrafty" projects.
* Honestly and thoughtfully critique all contributions within 10 days from the post date, and precede critiques with SHCG & Month (e.g., SHCG-November: This page rocks, but it would be more hardcore with stilettos for embellishments.).
* Check-in and chat with this main thread at least once a week.

The SHCG Flexible Plan:
* If a member knows she will not be able to meet the monthly contribution minimum, she can indicate this in the main thread to notify the group.
* Individuals have the option to notify members they haven't received critiques from should they wish to seek more feedback.
* Our group purpose is provide thoughtful critiques to each other’s work; compliments addressing specific details also count as critiques. Ideally, we aim to post feedback within 10 days (though we understand that real life takes precedence & sometimes may affect 100% fulfillment of this guideline).

"What is Scrap Happenzz?" you ask

We are:
* a tight-knit bunch of dynamic, artistic souls who like to chat, create, and help each other become the best scrappers/crafters we can be.
* a group of up to 15 very non-traditional chicks. Sometimes our brand of black, twisted humor has been known to rub the easily offended, easily rattled or very conservative population the wrong way!
* a friendly, nice and supportive group, but we go as far as we can in our chats without breaking any sb.com rules.
* NOT a mutual admiration society! We give honest, constructive feedback of each others work - compliments along w/ suggestions!

SHCG Perks:
* We have our own BLOG where we keep track of everything!
* We host Monthly Challenges (MC), rotated among members.
* We may post Member Hosted Challenges (MHC) with optional RAKs at any given time.
* We may hold contests when we feel like it.
* We learn more about each other through the Question of the Week, posted by the first person eager enough to respond.
* We give and get birthday gifties from our Wish Lists.
* We collaborate on how to keep this group running efficiently.
