BWC #12 - Running Out of Time
I have been so pressed this week with trying to get so many things done(that should have already been done since I have had plenty of time….(bad procrastination) LOL So my challenge is this, scrap a LO showing how u cope with getting last minute things done(and don't wait to the last minute to do the LO LOL) Like what is your strategy what do you put first,how do you organize it all?
I hope that this is a good one and that you all will enjoy it!!!

2Q10 #5: Calling all SuperFangs!
Yikes! It's been two months since the last 2Q10. I've been glamored ever since all things supernatural have become quite the sensation! The Lost series finale is airing tonight, and True Blood Season 3 premieres next month followed by the Eclipse movie release. From vamps, wolves, fairies, and fangs, to aliens, angels, and demons--our realities are blurring into fantasies. Have you been bitten? Which supernatural creature do you identify with the most? You can probably guess mine. ;}
BWC #11 "Everything but the Kitchen Sink"
Hello my Scrappy friends!
I want to recognize a few LO's in response to a few challenges:
BWC #6 - Put Letters on that Photo!
Marlene's " That's just how I roll"
Sharon's "Philippines"
Denitza's "Madison"
Michelle's "Kitty on the roof"
BWC#7 "Today"
Denita's "Today"
BWC #8 - Your Theme Song
Sharon's "Beautiful Day"
Denitza's "Peace"
Brian's " 30 years;Page 5"
http://www.scrapbook.com/galleries/306923/view/2729417/-1.html
Now onto the BWC #11 "Everything but the Kitchen Sink"
It will make sense when you see the requirements:
1. Close your eyes and chose 3 pieces of cardstock (if you store them like I do, separated by colors/themes, then lay them on a table and chose)
2. must use deco scissors (I assume we all have at least one pair)
3. use 1 piece of ribbon
4. use at least one flower
5. use and arrow of any size, shape or medium
6. use metal e.g. brads, corners, staples, eyelets, anchors or whatever else you might have
7. use inking or stamping. If you tend to do a lot of inking, consider using stamping and vise versa
8. use at least one button
Like I said, "Everything but the Kitchen Sink". I was inspired by Wendy's challenge of using scrapping scraps (although I had just gotten rid of mine a few weeks before she issued the challenge!) and utilizing things we don't "normally" use.
Have fun and I look forward to seeing what we can come up with!

RAK for Jan-Apr Participation
Okay, Marlene posted April above, so I looked back at Jan-Apr tRAKking. You all deserve a big round of applause - we had some excellent participation from everybody! And notable steady activity all 4 months from Brenda, Lisa & Tay! (Denitza too but she won last time so she was out of the RAK-running). BUT one person truly shone forth w/ her level of participation & promptness. SHCG - the winner of the Jan-Apr Participation RAK is...Michelle! Congrats!!
Please be on the lookout for your giftie.

BWC #10 - Catch-Up BWC!
Firstly, let's shout out to Brian's response to BWC 8 - Your Theme Song: 30 Years, Page 5!
Now, as requested, here is your every-4-months Catch-Up BWC. You get a couple more weeks to respond to past challenges!
Here's the description to the last one - Wendy's BWC 9 - Use Your Workstation Scraps: Use your workstation scraps....not sure how else to title this, but I will explain in more detail. When I am working on a layout or card at home, I almost always use ink, paint or something else that is messy, so often times I have a sheet of paper that I practice a stamp on or use to brush off excess paint or maybe even just have under my scrapbook paper to protect the work surface. Lately I have been realizing that these random pieces of "table protection" paper look pretty cool after some time in use. My challenge is to save those scraps and use them in a layout!
And CLICK HERE to get a list of all the challenges from SHCG's past - very cool stuff!
We'll get back to our regularly scheduled BWCs in 2 weeks. Enjoy your catch-up!! :o)

BWC #9 Use Your Workstation Scraps
First, I want to send a shout out to Denitza for contributing to BWC #8 with her layout titled Peace and another shout out to Michelle for her response to BWC #6 - Put Some Letters on that Photo - Kitty on the Roof.
Now for BWC #9 - use your workstation scraps....not sure how else to title this, but I will explain in more detail.

March 2010 TRAKking
Here’s the TRAKking for March 2010. Cut-off date for late critiques was today noon EST. I gave Wendy JFS credit for her website but didn’t tally up people’s responses to it. BWCs are optional but I’m recognizing those who responded. (No optional March 2?10s to calculate). Please let me know if you have any questions!
ALSO: Kindly note that if you post a submission late as a submission for the previous month, it can create extra work & throw timing off for us tRAKkers. We’ll try to accommodate you when we can. No worries if you’ve already done this, just please be mindful in the future. Thanks, fabulous peeps!
