confessions of a cropaholic | a scrapbooking blog

Update: Out of the two brave souls who entered, #1, Amber is the winner of this giveaway!

In a couple of week I’ll be embarking on a journey to a place where no (wo)man has gone before. Ok, just kidding about that last bit.

But I am accepting a challenge from my new online friend and scrappy guru, Lain Ehmann. Along with Tami from Bcr8tuv, she is doing the 4th annual LOAD challenge starting Feb 1.

LOAD stands for Lay Out A Day and just as the name implies, the challenge is to create one layout per day, capture it, and share it with the other members via a Flickr group.

What You’ll Get:

• A challenge!
• Daily inspirational emails from Lain with tips, challenges and techniques
• The chance to win the grand price (by uploading a layout each day for the entire month) and other cool scrap loot
• Weekly tutorials
• Inspiration from other bloggers
• and much more!

Cost: $25

What You Need To Do:

• Sign up by sending a PayPal payment to lainehmann <at> comcast <dot> net. (select “personal” when sending to avoid processing fee)
• Create a Flickr account, if you don’t already have one
• Grab the blinkie code: <a href=” http://knitandpurlgrrl.blogs.com/five_things/2009/12/its-that-time-of-year.html”><img src=”http://i657.photobucket.com/albums/uu293/LainEhmann/loadad.gif” border=”0″ alt=”LOAD 2/10″></a>

I fully expect to get overwhelmed and probably feel a little intimidated in the company of some great scrappers (and somehow stowing some scrap tools in my suitcase to Blissdom so I can be eligible for that grand prize!)

And I can’t wait.
