This is the "Where the Hell is Matt?" challenge


So a few weeks ago I ran across THIS VIDEO online and I was immediately taken with it. After watching it, I watched it again, and again, and again. Then I had my husband watch it. I think I cried once or twice. And then I had an idea. I was so inspired by all of the people, places, cultures, feelings that I saw in this that I thought it was perfect for a "Let's think outside the box" challenge. So watch this video ( I suggest several times) and see what you draw from it. As you can see from the examples below we all have different ideas about it.
This challenge is going to run from July 28th-August 8th. Please feel free to do as many projects as you want, but be sure to add your link here or to the slide show so we can all see what your take looks like! This is an opportunity to really "think", and not just follow a theme or pattern, so make it your own and HAVE FUN!!

Christmas in July Challenge!


So let's try and cool off with a fun Christmas in July Challenge, shall we? This is going to run from today until July 25th (how appropriate!). You can enter as many times as you like and the winner will be able to choose one "Christmas themed kit" from the store!
Most of the LO's you see from the DT are done with the "Little Saint Nick" or "Jack Frost" kits, but I also have kits from KI, BG, Cosmo, Crate Paper and more! So have fun with this and get to scrapping all of those millions of Christmas photos we all have on our "to do" list! And here's an FYI...those Christmas kits are ON SALE...BIG TIME, so head over and pick one up! If you win there's a great gift for the other scrappers in your life! Be sure to link your project (LO, card, altered item) to the slide show or leave a link in the comments so I can find you.

Kids seriously rock!

I hope you guys all enjoyed the kids work as much as I did!! How cute is that slide show?! And it sounds like several of the kids have found a great new hobby...YAY! So how had is this decision? HARD! But here are the 2 winners:
