Default New challenge up on the blog!

Welcome to our first Heritage Challenge!!! It's gonna be fun, it's gonna be cool, it might even be retro.

Okay, enough goofing off - head on over to the blog and read all about it. And then post your layout in our new Heritage Gallery.

Steph....so happy about the new challenge. Been thinking someone should be doing this. Hope we can use the gallery for all heritage pages so we can see the various styles.

I'm seriously thinking about it...(do you think dh will buy the story that I have now become a full time scrapper and that the rewards, although not monetary, are well worth my spending most of my day doing this?!?!? -- probably not!)

Woohoo, I think this is a great idea! I could probably spend all my time in the Heritage Gallery, both posting and looking, because I love working with the "older" photos.

Great job, Steph! The examples are wonderful!

I am excited. I have a bunch of photo's from when my grandmother was younger. This might be the inspiration that I need to get them scanned and on a page.

So glad there's a heritage gallery as scanning and doing layouts with my older heritage photos is my current 'task'. I've managed one layout and have done a pile of scanning so will try to get a wedding one done for the challenge.
I think it's scary that my childhood photos are considered heritage, I'm not that old, I'm calling heritage anything from before I was born.
