Thanks for the challenge!

Thanks for helping me appreciate the process - rather than just hating my early layouts, I'm appreciating how far I've come.

Hi there, hate to hear your not feeling well. I hope you get better in time for Orlando.
I have to be honest with you and say that I have had a really tough time with this challenge.
I'm going to have to get my nose in it tomorrow and see what I can do.
Get well soon!

Hope you're feeling better soon, Ali! I haven't had a chance to read this week's newsletter, but it's in my inbox waiting for me.

Oh Ali - I can say I know how you feel - I had the flu Friday too and still am not feeling up to snuff. I know the feeling about not wanting to get up. Hope your dear hubby and little buddy took good care of you.

Poor you! Hope you're feeling a little better by now. It's probably too late to get a prescription over the weekend, but for future reference, Tamiflu REALLY does help. I was skeptical, but when my family got a nasty flu last year, Tamiflu was really miraculous. (No, I have no affiliation, and I'm usually anti-Big Pharma.)
Sending you a big "get well" hug!

Hi Ali;
Thanks for issuing another challange. Here is what I came up with last night about "What's your Scrapbook Style"

Get plenty of rest and water, water, water. I feel ahead cold coming on myself. I enjoy your newsletter, think about your challenges, but have never tried one...this is one where I already have it done. I definitely know my style...culture infusion...what I call Ethnic Scrapbooking. Taking the ordinary everyday moments and relating them to various cultures. Here's a link of how I announced the birth of new grandson at the start of Kwanzaa last year, even though I don't celebrate Kwanzaa this principle exemplified the moment.

Please feel better, Ali. I know it is NO fun being sick THIS time of year! You're in my prayers!

What's my Style?
I have not participated here before but have been feeling a strong need to get my creative self moving - I'm in a slump. I'm interested in joining the weekly challenges - I'll see if I'm up to the challenge!
Do i even have a style? Currently my style is to think a lot about scrapping, to look at magazines, and then feel paralyzed when it comes to my own pages. I know what I like, but then don't have the time or tools to get into it, so then I resort to scraplifting, or falling back on the same old layouts that I use over and over.
I'm not sure what my style is, but I know what its not:
Not: flowery, overly embellished, not too many tools (I don't have the time or space), not too much generic journaliing,
I do like (even though I seldom achieve it)
mixing patterns and colors, surprises, not the traditional "scrapbook" look... I know it when I see it but I'm not sure how to describe it.
Well, I've gone on long enough. I hope just the discipline of getting this posted will get me started doing something - I'm thinking of doing the Christmas Journal...

Hey, Ali! Thanks for the inspiring post. It really was a thrill to look back at all my old scrapbook layouts and see how far I've come.
