Hello, welcome to our challenge blog. One night while commiserating about our affliction, Lea and I thought up a great idea on how to make a dent in our long lost and forgotten stash of scrapbooking items. You know how it goes, new products come out and some where along the way what was new 6 months ago, gets shoved to the side as all the new goodies keep coming and you keep buying...We thought what better way to branch out creatively than to have a few challenges to help us out. You all know you have those items way back in your drawer or the bottom of your bag. Maybe you just aren't sure how to best use a particular item that you just had to have. Well, that is where we come in. This blog started out for our enjoyment, but we figured what the heck, let's post our challenges for everyone. We may just get you inspired to pull out those long lost eyelets, or that never used scrappy tool. So, we hope you come along for the ride... get ready to start using your SCRAPBOOK stash. =) =)

July's Challenge

Hello Bloggers!!!

It's the 1st of the month so once again it's time for a new challenge here at Scrapbookers Anonymous!  This months challenge has to do with color... your hard to use color, or the color that is building up in your stash. The idea is to make your layout fairly monochromatic attempting to use this difficult color.  Check out the amazing layouts that our DT created!

What a great challenge! I have struggled using brown for over a year now, I have to use it in moderation, so monochromatic was a challenge indeed! Thanks for the push!
