I know there are only 5 NR points credited in each portfolio, but I was unsure as to whether 2 of my NR pages would count as they were posted late (please see note at bottom of thread) so I did some extra challenges and added another new release to make sure I achieved the 30 point target. Hope that's ok

2011.01.14 - OOPS!!! I am brand new to digital scrapping and the portfolio challenges - and loving it! However... when I went to upload my next completed layouts last night and again this morning (Australian time) I received a dreaded upload limit at the members gallery - I was not aware that there was a limit and I still have two more layouts using NR to upload in the next 5 hours before the week is up to be elligable for the extra points
Anyway, to sum it up, in case I am not sucessful in uploading them in time, they are #8 'Our Big Plans' - using KCB Sweet Escape and #5 'So much Dirt, so little Time' - using CS templates. If I am sucessful at uploading them I will obviously put them straight in my thread, but if not - then hopefully it might still count... here's hoping.
