Welcome 2011! New Challenges!

Happy New Year to all my blog friends.....I know, I'm a little late but I am only just getting caught up after being away over the holidays and my hubby's 50th birthday celebrations! I finally "sat down" via web cam with Kim yesterday for the first time in weeks, and we managed to set some goals for ourselves for 2011. These challenges are open for any of you to participate in so if you are interested, just leave a comment on this post! We'll link your blog up so we can leave you some love!

The first challenge I am going to participate in is with our group of friends from the 2010 Layout Challenge who have decided to carry on with this. Jenn started us off again this year, with Roxy, Kim, and I joining in, plus we have some new participants as well. We are linked up on my sidebar so that you can check out everybody's creations as we go! We have challenged ourselves to do at least 52 layouts this year, plus 2 cards per month. You can decide what your own goal will be if you join in! No pressure here, just lots of fun!

Additionally, Kim and I have decided that we are going to make every card in the Wishes book this year. And.....we are going to do Helen Onulak's Scrapbook Challenges! It may seem like we are biting off more than we can chew, but in reality, these challenges all overlap, so we think we should be able handle doing all of them.

Hope you'll join in the fun! Even if you choose to not do the challenge, you can still participate by commenting on the artwork posted by these very creative gals. We love reading them!

  1. Yes, it will definitely be a lot of fun! I guess I should link up the other blogs to my 2011 Challenge list, I'm kind of behind in that department! Good luck with all your goals, I know you will work hard to reach them.

  5. Can you sign me up too Roz! I will go with the layout swap for sure including the Helen one as well. I really am not good at making cards so I will pass on that one.
