Brothers n Others Challenge (Deadline Sat-June-30-07)

THE CHALLENGE: We did the women in our lives last time so this month let's honour the men in our lives. This is a chance to scrap photos from Father's Day or any day! This challenge is very simple. The theme is special men in your life. It is up to you how you want to interpret the theme. This also covers all the males who have special meaning to you from relatives to friends to that special pet!

DEADLINE: You have until Saturday, June 30, 2007 Midnight EST to post your layouts.

KITS: You may use any kit, preferably a DSP kit, and please ensure you provide proper credit and use keywords where available.

GALLERY: Post your LOs to Odds n Ends Gallery (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=3365) (you may double up for other challenges and post in other galleries but we would love you to post here when possible) However, you MUST POST A LINK to your LO in this thread whether it is posted in the gallery or not.

NOTE: Only new LOs will be eligible for the bonus and draw but you are welcome to post your old LOs to the Gallery for us to see

PRIZES: Everyone will receive a posting bonus and there will also be a draw for a gift certificate of $3.99 to the DSP Store which will be drawn after the deadline.

POSTING BONUS: We have a wonderful posting bonus generously donated by Jamie Messenger aka JustScraps

I have worked on this for over a week now! I have found another site full of tips and tricks and had to try them all out .... got sort of carried away I'm afraid ...
Finally stopped and uploaded it.
But thanks for this challenge, Mars, now I gotta go do something for at least my oldest son!
