Happy Scrapping!

Here's a bit of extra information on a few of the prompts that might help you get started :

#2: Car Karaoke...
Who doesn't love to sing along with the music in the car?? Scrap and /or journal about your experiences.
OR if you're like my 5 year old son, you might need to scrap about how much you dislike it when people do!

#5: Flashback - I Know What You Did Last Summer...
Scrap about a summer memory/event from last year [or any year past].

#6: Moonlights on the Beach Font...

any tips for graduation/promotion?

my kids are not in school yet so no graduation here. In France we don't have big graduation ceremonies so no pics of me from long ago either...
as for promotion... I have never been promoted...

can someone help me turn this into something do-able?

How about passing a driving test?
Or, if your kids are little, 'graduating' on the potty training?

[rach3975]

Do you have any pictures of your kids with grandparents? You could do something with the saying, "The best mothers/fathers get promoted to grandmas/grandpas." Or graduating to solid food, graduating from the baby swing to a big kid swing, being promoted to big brother/sister.

For #14: Graduation/Promotion ... Sherly and Rachel have offered some great suggestions but please don't feel as though you have to think about the wording so literally. The idea behind the prompt is really just about progressing through life, moving onward and upward. I hope that helps.

Thank you everyone! It helps a lot!!

Hello there,

It's the first time I play Challenge Bingo, I just have a little question about #10 Showcase titlework, I don't know how to translate in french so I'm not sure what kind of title it is supposed to be?
I'm really sorry...
If somebody can help?
Anyway your thread is really helpful, thank you!:)

For the stamped alpha challenge - can we just "stamp" an alpha from the shop? My program allows me make anything into a stamp.

Also, working on Cooling Down challenge. If I include "cooling down" in the journaling will that be enough. I am doing a page about a waterfall that we visited

Yes to both. As long as the alpha looks stamped, that's fine. And the waterfall is definitely a cooling down theme.

This means to make your title work stand out. Make it big, or use several different alphas. Anything to make the title stand out rather than be lost amongst the rest of the layout.

This blog post might give you some examples: https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/index.php/2017/05/sugarbabe-sunday-521/

On the journaling challenge for wordstrips does that mean the little word strips included in a lot of kits or does it mean using strips for journaling on?
