			<title>Treasured Scrapbooking We Love Our Members Contest</title>
			<description>Ongoing through Sunday, March 28, 2010 &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Please join us for a four week long contest involving challenges, games and prizes! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each Monday morning (or late Sunday night) I will issue a challenge based on a design principle, and you will have until Sunday at midnight PST to complete your layout. If you don&amp;#8217;t complete a layout, you are out of the contest. Entries will be &amp;#8220;judged&amp;#8221; by the Design Team and given a score according to the following parameters: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Following the challenges directions &lt;br /&gt;2. Photographs &lt;br /&gt;3. Overall composition &lt;br /&gt;4. Success of using design principle &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It sounds complicated, but I PROMISE it will be fun! Each design principle will be something easy, most likely it will be things you already do! Digital scrappers are welcome to join in on the fun, but there may be occasion where paper scrapping will be necessary, so be careful to read the challenge outlines each week. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the end of the four weeks, the participant with the highest score will be our grand prize winner. There will also be a random name draw winner and a weekly winner. There will be games and prizes to go along with the fun all month long!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope to see you!  All Newbies welcomed! &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;b&gt;More info&lt;/b&gt;:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.treasuredscrapbooking.com/" target="_blank"&gt;www.treasuredscrapbooking.com&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description>

			<title>Good Grief Challenge Blog</title>
			<description>Ongoing through Sunday, March 28, 2010 &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.goodgriefblog.com/" target="_blank"&gt;www.goodgriefblog.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BE CHALLENGED&lt;br /&gt;Welcome! We here have all experienced a loss. Together, we hope to heal. This site is intended to help in that process...to be a source of inspiration and motivation...and to simply be a place to share and know that others understand. To that end, we (the contributors) have created these scrapbook challenges. For us, scrapbooking about our lost loved ones is therapeutic on many levels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Challenges are completely open...anyone can participate and challenges are very much open to interpretation...take from them whatever helps YOU. Tackle them in whatever format suits you (layouts, mini albums, home decor, anything!). No rules.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Note, if you're fortunate enough to have not suffered a loss, you're still more than welcome to hang out here. :) We know these challenges can be inspiring in and of themselves, without necessarily relating to loss.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;New challenges and examples will be posted on the 1st and 15th of each month. Between challenges, more in-depth looks at the contributor layouts will be posted. As this site evolves, we hope to add more content between the challenges and will look to you for ideas and suggestions. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;b&gt;More info&lt;/b&gt;:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.goodgriefblog.com/" target="_blank"&gt;www.goodgriefblog.com&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description>

			<title>iScrap Challenge Group</title>
			<description>Sunday, March 28, 2010 &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Welcome to the iScrap Challenge Group&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every month you are going to be presented with a variety of challenges at various times to be completed for points.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With each challenge it will stipulate the requirements and what is needed to be awarded the points. They will also stipulate if you can do digital or hybrid. There will be some layouts that are digital only and the same for paper only.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If at any time you have any questions or problems with the challenges please direct all through the forum. There will be a chat area for the challenge competitors so you can ask there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You will have until the 28th of each month to complete all challenges and have them uploaded to the iScrap's Challenge folder in the gallery. Once you have uploaded the challenges please post in the challenge thread with a link back to the gallery. DO NOT place the images in this thread.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another step that you will need to do in the gallery, is make sure that you give each layout a title in the following manner: iScrap Challenge # 1 &amp;#8211; TITLE HERE. I will know who posted it as your name is on all uploads.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That takes care of the intro. If there are any questions please don't hesitate to ask.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy Scrapping Everyone. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;b&gt;More info&lt;/b&gt;:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.iscrap.net/contests/scrapbooking-challenge-group.cfm" target="_blank" title="http://www.iscrap.net/contests/scrapbooking-challenge-group.cfm"&gt;www.iscrap.net&amp;#8230;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description>

I sat down to think about a contest title, and my thoughts drifted to all the horrible weather, all the natural disasters. How gloomy. I'm ready for a change - and &amp;quot;bright colors&amp;quot; just popped into my head. So I'm going to go with bright colors as a contest theme for this month.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This contest will have one winner, and that winner will receive a $20 gift certificate to use at A Peek into Yesterday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Timeline:&lt;br /&gt;- Submit layouts now through 3/31&lt;br /&gt;- The winners will be announced 4/4&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The rules (please read - you must follow them all!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frequently overlooked rules: list your products used.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Your layout must be bright! Use plenty of bright colors - pure reds, oranges, greens, yellows, blues, etc. Be cheerful and colorful!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Upload your layout(s) to the gallery under &amp;quot;Bright Colors&amp;quot; in the contest section (make sure the size is 100K or smaller, and the file name does not contain spaces or special characters) (Note: if you edit your entry after the deadline, the system will move the layout out of the contest gallery. Please send me a PM, and I'll put it back.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Give your layout a title. If you enter more than one layout, please make sure the titles are different.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Scraplifts are not eligible for contests. If you use a sketch or an idea from someone else, please give credit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Layouts previously entered in a Peek contest not eligible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Note: You can not win two contests in a row at Peek. If you won the last contest, we would still love to see your entry in this contest, even though it won't be eligible to win.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Winning entries will be displayed on the Peek homepage until the next contest winner is announced. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;b&gt;More info&lt;/b&gt;:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://apeekintoyesterday.com/" target="_blank"&gt;apeekintoyesterday.com&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description>

			<title>Good Grief Challenge Blog</title>
			<description>Thursday, April 15&amp;nbsp;&amp;ndash; Wednesday, April 28, 2010 &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.goodgriefblog.com/" target="_blank"&gt;www.goodgriefblog.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BE CHALLENGED&lt;br /&gt;Welcome! We here have all experienced a loss. Together, we hope to heal. This site is intended to help in that process...to be a source of inspiration and motivation...and to simply be a place to share and know that others understand. To that end, we (the contributors) have created these scrapbook challenges. For us, scrapbooking about our lost loved ones is therapeutic on many levels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Challenges are completely open...anyone can participate and challenges are very much open to interpretation...take from them whatever helps YOU. Tackle them in whatever format suits you (layouts, mini albums, home decor, anything!). No rules.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Note, if you're fortunate enough to have not suffered a loss, you're still more than welcome to hang out here. :) We know these challenges can be inspiring in and of themselves, without necessarily relating to loss.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;New challenges and examples will be posted on the 1st and 15th of each month. Between challenges, more in-depth looks at the contributor layouts will be posted.

			<title>Scrap Attack Scrapbooking Design Team Call</title>
			<description>Saturday, April 17, 2010 &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Scrap Attack Scrapbooking is looking for designers to add to our team and we would be honored to add you as a key part of our family! As a design team member your primary role will be to help showcase the newest products we sell. Our designers work is featured within our Creative Gallery as well as our Online Store. Your exposure in our store is phenomenal because we link the products you use to the layouts you create. We are looking for individuals who are creative, committed to showing off your best work 150% of the time, passionate about scrapping, can comply with deadlines, and participate actively and positively on our message board. Do you think you have what it takes to be a {SAS}sy designer? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* We do accept international applicants, however due to the costs involved in shipping supplies overseas the designer will be responsible for the difference in shipping domestically and internationally (Canadian shipments are typically only a few dollars.) We apologize for the inconvenience and welcome you to become a part of the Scrap Attack Scrapbooking Message Board as another option.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Design Team member responsibilities include:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Create a minimum of 6 - 12x12 unique and inspiring scrapbook layouts each month to display in our galleries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Agree to a 6 month commitment of May 1, 2010-October 31, 2010.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Sign and return a Design Team contract. Failure to return or comply with the rules in the contract will result in termination from the team.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Take well photographed pictures of your layouts, as well as closer images of details when possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Actively promote Scrap Attack Scrapbooking on your blog, Facebook, twitter or any other websites where rules allow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* As a design team member you are an extension of our site so you will be expected to act in a professional manner both on our site and on other sites you visit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Actively participate in the Scrap Attack Scrapbooking Message Board. If you feel you can not actively participate in our Message Board at this time, I would suggest waiting until you can fully make that commitment. While scrapbooking is the passion we all share, as a design team member you will also be asked to actively promote the store and the products we sell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Design Team Member benefits:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Receive FREE monthly supplies (Retail value $35-45) at no cost to you. Scrap Attack Scrapbooking will pay the shipping and handling on your design team supplies. In return for supplies, we retain the right to display your work in our galleries after your term ends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* 35% off all purchases from the Scrap Attack Scrapbooking store during the duration of your term. (35% off original prices when you take an additional 25% off our already reduced {SAS}sy store prices.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Scrap Attack Scrapbooking Design Team will be chosen by the store owner. When filling a design team we look for all types of scrapbooking styles so everyone is welcome to apply. Current and past design team members are eligible to reapply. We feel that every site you design for should have your full dedication. Therefore we only choose designers who are on less than 3 design teams, one of which would be Scrap Attack Scrapbooking. If you are already on 3 design teams, we&amp;#8217;d encourage you to apply when your commitments are less than 2 design teams (this includes sketch sites, challenge sites, online sites and local scrapbook stores.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In order to apply for the Scrap Attack Scrapbooking Design Team, please see our message board for full details on the submission process. Deadline for entry is midnight Pacific Time, Saturday April 17th, 2010.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good luck to those interested in this great opportunity. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;b&gt;More info&lt;/b&gt;:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://scrapattackscrapbooking.blogspot.com/2010/03/scrap-attack-scrapbooking-design-team.html" target="_blank" title="http://scrapattackscrapbooking.blogspot.com/2010/03/scrap-attack-scrapbooking-design-team.html"&gt;scrapattackscrapbooking.blogspot.com&amp;#8230;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description>
