Weekly Challenges

Well, I got my Stampin' Up kit the other day, and have had so much fun looking at the new catalog, getting my web site up, and reading a lot of new demonstrator information to help me begin this new endeavor!!!  I am excited to say the least, and can't wait to start sharing with you some of the fun things I have planned to create both with Stampin' Up products and without!  And with my Creative Paperclay design team project, you will see a whole page on the blog with nothing but beginner tips for you to start using the Creative Paperclay product on your scrapbook pages and paper craft projects!!!  
Since I am working on a few things myself - I thought I would give you a couple of challenges to get you kick started into the holiday season!  Now, if you don't celebrate holiday's, there will be GREAT challenges just for you, so don't stop reading quite yet!  For you holiday buff's - here's a few challenges just for you:

1. Start to design your holiday cards that people are going to receive!  I like to design a couple of different styles to send out!!!  Get your list going, and make a few extra to donate to a non-profit agency such as the Ronald McDonald house for them to give out!  
2. Get your gift list going and start on anything you happen to have at home, making a list of what needs to be purchased!  I am working on a few past years' projects people are actually going to get this year!  I am excited to get them done!  

Now, for those of you who are not in to "holiday's" or you need a jump start in just getting things done like I do, I have a few challenges for you as well!  You still have those pictures, those past projects you need to finish, those upcoming events you need to do things for!  These next challenges are JUST for you!  As you can tell, I procrastinate...  I also try...(notice the word TRY) to be organized, because I just don't have the time TO create like I used to!  These challenges are more for me than you, but if you'd like to join on in to my little party - we can challenge each other!    

1. Clean and organize your scrapbook space, BEFORE you do another project!  Try to move things around to make more sense as to how you create - and while you are at it, find boxes that you can alter to put other fun things in as you are organizing to make your space truly look good while functioning!  
2. Find past projects you have put aside and get at least ONE thing done!  Then pick another one and get it done - and so forth!  
3. Look at your past projects, and create a BRAND NEW project using that as inspiration!  

Paper crafting - therapeutic, fun, and such a great way to spend time with your family!   When your area looks good, and your space is cleaned - you can get more done in the long run!  And when you have a list of things you need to get done, you really do actually GET more done!  

Thanks for stopping by,
