And speaking of bonuses - Tina's bonus will be out shortly as it'll work for one of the challenges this time! (see the attached pic)

Challenges:

What are or were a few of YOUR FAVORITE THINGS! Go back and talk about your favorite things as a young child, older child, teen, or adult! Or do a whole set!

or

INDEPENDENCE - interpret the word as you will - as the US Holiday or as your own independence - when in your life did you feel really independent?

Have fun with these trips down memory lane - and don't forget to keep that memory list going!

[ScrapMel]

Oh, I get to use another of Elizabeth's kits for a challenge....oh, la la! Can't wait!

[ScrapMel]

Here's one of my favorite memories (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=110737&cat=551&limit=recent)from childhood. I used several of Elisabeth's kits - if I could have gotten away with it, I would have used the Aquarium one (my favorite!)

[Janet]

Whoops!!!!!!!!!! Slight change in the challenge...my fault completely...didn't double check with Elisabeth.

Please use at least one of these kits:
Summer Linens (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2931)
Meemaw's Dresser (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2679)
Digiscrappin' (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2678)

[Elisabeth]

No, I'll take the blame there, Janet. Sorry for the non communication on my part! Mkiser has already posted so she'll get the freebs anyway. Which, this reminds me, I should get zipped up!

Edit: You can see the freebie posting bonus for using Digiscrappin', Summer Linens, or MeeMaw's Dresser, here (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=110826&cat=744).

Thanks Janet!

[ScrapMel]

Are you sure? I really appreciate it (yeah, I was rather quick, wasn't I ?)lol

[rlma]

This is my first BOM challenge. I'm going to have to back track and do the others as I think it's a wonderful idea!

Here is mine: NYC Independence (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=111187&cat=551)

[ErinBoBerin]

So I thought I'd join in on the challenge and of course googled my favorite childhood object, only to find one on ebay... of course I had to bid!

[angminer]

I'd promised myself not to buy any more kits until I use what I have, but I think Elisabeth just made me break my promise. I have to get those edges!!!

I'll try to post a LO soon!

Here is my July 1 - 15 BOM layout using Elisabeth's beautiful new Summer Linens page kit. What beautiful summery colors in this kit and I think this is my first yellow layout! We are getting ready to go away for a few days, so I was pressed to get this one finished. I hope to add a second page of journaling to this one!

Thanks everyone! I enjoyed all those pages. It's so fitting that we should stop and scrap ourselves, or all the records will be about the rest of our family all the time!

I believe I sent the posting bonus to everyone but if I missed someone please please let me know! Thanks again!
