*Lost At Sea* Week Four

Another week has gone by and more of our ladies have been sent home from this crazy adventure we are on. Did you check out the layouts from last week? Make sure to see all the Treasures our ladies shared in the Week 3 Gallery.

Onto this week’s challenge:

Week 4 – {A Day In Your Life} *Challenge*
It seems like almost allof the GingerScraps gals have gotten word, they are all blending right in with the pirates. You have started to hold secret meetings and exchange ideas about how to fight these pirates.

To be quite honest, many of the pirates seem very unhappy with the pirate captain and you think they may join together and try to overthrow their leader.

This all might play out perfectly and it is possible you will not have to get involved at all. But just in case, you (and your fellow scrappers) have decided to start tracking all the movements of the pirate captain and his crew of leading men and women.

You start a journal of what they do, from the time they wake up, until the time they go to bed at night.

If you have to orchestrate a plan to take down the captain, you will be prepared!

Week 4- {A Day In Your Life} *The Challenge*
Inspired by tracking the life of the pirates, this layout will be all about a day in YOUR life. Pick a day, take photos and notes as to what you did that day, then scrap it!

The Layout Rules-

  • This layout is all about a day in your life.
  • The LO must have at least 6 photos of things you did during the day.
  • The LO must have the date of your “day in the life”.
  • There is no maximum numbers of photos allowed, go ahead and take as many as you want!
  • In the Tribal Council forum post, type out your journaling, so all players can read your journaling.
  • Templates ARE ALLOWED in this challenge.
  • You must use ALL 100% GingerScraps products when creating your Layout.
  • *Remember* Always credit the products you are using, when posting in the gallery. List the credits in the description box when uploading. When checking layouts, I need to be sure all products are from GS designers- so credits are crucial!!

Come check out the Week 4 Gallery and see what the girls are up to. Make sure to leave them some love and encouragement as well.

GS_blog_LetsCelebrate_Header
Happy Monday everyone! Did this Monday bring your school age kiddos going back to school? Are you going back to school? Are you a teacher who is getting ready for back to school? Well, it is that time of the year! My son starts back on Wednesday. I am having a bit of a hard time wrapping my mind around the summer being over and him being in the 2nd grade. sigh. That being said, you know as us scrappy mom’s we are going to have some adorable 1st day of school photos to scrap! Not to mention the school supply/clothes shopping, meeting the teachers, and more.

I am here today to make the back-to-school digital scrapbooking shopping a little easier for you!

Did you know that GingerScraps has a category just for those back to school digital scrabooking supplies? Well it does! It is one of the largest theme categories the store has. I went though that category for you and just picked out a few digital scrapbooking supplies to show you. It is exactly that…just a few of all the great items you can get in the store. All the images are linked to their store counterpart. Let’s get started!

*Lost At Sea* Week Three

Good morning scrappers! It is that time of week where we take a look at the past week’s Survivor layouts. We just finished week 3!

So what was Week 3’s challenge?

While you wait to see if your message in a bottle finds its way to a willing savior, you have continued to put on your pirate disguise each day. You are blending in quite well, and actually learning some very interesting things about these pirates.

One buccaneer told you that the pirate captain has a treasure hidden on his ship, it is said to be a huge booty of doubloons and rare gems! He wants to get a crew together to steal the treasure. This sounds like risky business to you, the last thing you need is to get wrapped up in some crime with a band of pirates! You wish the buccaneer luck and move along.

As you walk away you begin to think about your own life, and your treasures. If you were to make a treasure chest, what prized possessions would you stowaway?

Week 3 – {Booty} *The Challenge*
This layout is all about your own “booty”. If you were to put your most prized possessions in a treasure chest, what would they be?


Here are just a few of the amazing layouts you guys scrapped! (images are linked to the gallery)

What did I tell you? Great layouts right? All so different but all stand outs in their own way. Week 4’s challenge isn’t posted yet. make sure you keep an eye on out on the forum for it to be posted. When you get those layouts scrapped, upload them to week 4’s gallery. We will be back later in the week to shout out to some of the stand outs! Have fun!
