Sponsor Giveaways | The Mother Load, Summer Card Camp 2011
GIVEAWAY |One person will receive a spot in Lain Ehmann's upcoming 13-week online class at Big Picture Classes: The Mother LOAD: A Scrapbook Marathon
SPECIAL OFFER | In addition to receive $20 off of The Mother LOAD use code: load2011
Are you a marathon scrapbooker? Do you want to be? As crazy as it may sound, scrapbookers have a lot in common with runners. Both can run into the same problems – lack of time, isolation, a routine that has become more of a drudgery than a help. The good news? You can easily overcome these obstacles.
No, Lain won’t make you run 26.2 miles in just a few hours – but she will challenge you to scrapbook 26 layouts in 26 days! Through The Mother LOAD - A Scrapbook Marathon, part of the 4Experts series for 2011, Lain will show you how committing to making scrapbooking a priority in your life will help you:
Scrapbook faster
Love your pages more
Actually USE your stash
Connect with what you love best about this hobby of ours
The first two months of class will be spent on “basic training” to increase your stamina, refine your process, and get you mentally and physically ready for the ultimate challenge: creating a layout a day for the first 26 days of September. After you cross the finish line, there will be time for reflection – and celebration!
For more information, and to register, please visit The Mother LOAD.

I have been inspired by pictures my 15yo dd took in March. She took a picture a day for the month. Just out of the blue she decided to do it. I did Project 365 in 2009 but haven't done it last year or this year. I want to scrapbook these memories for her so she can look back at them and see what her everyday life was like in March 2011.
Also, like many others, pinterest inspires me.

I pinned this to Pinterest this week: http://fromanigloo.blogspot.com/2010/02/ruffle-jeans-tutorial.html
I have a skinny little peanut, who, at 4, could easily wear 2T jeans, but they are too short. She wears a lot of leggings for that reason. I don't know why I never thought to do this, but I am no inspired to pull out the jeans that were headed to donation, and give them a new life! Great giveaway! Thanks!

This week I was inspired by watching a movie with my kids - Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium (highly recommend) - to remember that there is a "sparkle" inside ALL of us!!

Something that inspired me was rain. It has been raining on and off for weeks and now i am using it to my advantage. I shot piles of pics as reflections this week in puddles, roads, cans, anything. Graduation, how about pics reflected in a pond?!
I wasn't going to let the weather get me down this week.

I saw that Summer Card Camp and was so excited because I'm new to card making and stamping and want to learn the tricks of the trade! :) Elise Blaha's 26 Project totally inspired me this week. Love what she's done so far. http://eliseblaha.typepad.com/golden/2011/02/this-years-plan.html
