Congratulations to All Who Took Up the Challenge

Back on May 14th I put out a challenge to all my scrapbooking readers to post a layout about themselves on their blog by the end of the month and link back to here. The objective was to encourage some ‘book of me’ type introspection (after all you’re just as important a scrapping subject as anyone else in the family) and also to spread some extra scrapping blogger interaction.

Well I’m pleased to say that a goodly number of you took up the challenge and have posted your layouts. Thank You and Congratulations to all of you.

Below is the visiting list for the Challenge participants (and of course for any other reader too). I’m pretty sure there’ll be a few blogs on this list that each of you haven’t visited before as well as some old friends. So shine your shoes and put on your best visiting clothes and lets get out there and share some love. Make sure you drop a comment on each of the blogs to let them know you’ve popped in.

The following ladies are ‘at home’ to visitors (updated to include some newcomers — check the end of the list for blogs you may not have visited) :

Tink from Tink’s Tribulations

Kim from My Idle Chatter

Toni from A life Lived Beachside

Leslie from Orangina Dreams

I’m sure you’ll have fun girls. There are some great blogs out there and some fun people. And let’s face it, we can all use some extra love.

Enjoyed viewing all the wonderful layouts, and giving (and receiving) love Karen, I tried to reply to your email, but it bounced - just for the record the “Allow link notifications from other Weblogs (pingbacks and trackbacks.)” is checked, so I have no idea why the ping didn’t work.

ohh there are some great layouts there. I’ve never been short of AAM pages [soemthing to do with not having kids I end up scrapping myself ALOT haha]. But yes so many people don’t scrap about them selves - it’s wonderful to see so many pages that will document who the person behind the pages was/is.

Hope everyone has enjoyed this. And thanks to all for joining in.
