challenge #1: me, myself and i!

Welcome to "The Goodie Box" and our *first ever* challenge! We are so excited about the Goodie Box blog and hope that you will ALL come and play. The concept is simple...every month we'll issue a fun scrapbooking challenge and whoever is chosen as the winner will receive a "goodie box" in the mail.

Sound good?

Good!

So without further ado, let's get right down to it. This month's challenge is:

"Me, Myself and I".

You got it, we want to see layouts made by YOU, about YOU! Anything goes with this one...you can do a layout focusing on who you are today, or maybe you want to scrapbook that special childhood photo that you've been meaning to get to for so long. You can do a page about your wedding day, or maybe you just have a special story to tell. Like we said...anything goes, as long as it is about YOU! AND...somewhere on your page we want you to add a little bling...whether you use rhinestones, sequins or glitter, we don't care. We just want to see a little *sparkle* somewhere on your page! So let's get goin'!

Here are our layouts for this month's challenge:



"Waiting" by Kim Loewen





"Look At Me" by Talia Audenart


So all you gotta do once you've finished your layout is post a link to it in the "comments" section below along with your name. It doesn't matter "where" your layout is online--your blog or any online gallery is great, we just want to be able to see it!

Keep in mind as we are choosing a winner that this is just for FUN! We'll pick winners according to originality and creativity...whatever catches our eye and represents the current challenge well. We are open to all kinds of styles and page sizes. Traditional and digital scrapbookers are welcome, too. We just want the Goodie Box to be a place where we can share fun ideas and make new scrappin' friends.

Oh, ya....

and give away FREE STUFF!

So...

the deadline for the "Me, Myself and I" challenge is Friday, April 27th and we will announce the winner on Monday, April 30th. One of you will be receiving a goodie box in the mail!

Stay tuned till next week when you'll get a "sneak peek" at this month's Goodie Box, and until then, have fun scrappin'. We can't wait to see your pages!!

:)Talia & Kim

UPDATED:
I just wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone so far for checking out the blog and for even posting your layouts already. You guys ALL rock!! Kim and I love seeing the response to the Goodie Box and we can't wait to see more of your pages come in. Yay! We really couldn't do this without you!
I'm so glad to see people excited about this month's challenge...we definately forget to scrapbook about ourselves....remember, your kids will enjoy seeing pages of you, too! Someone asked if you could submit more than 1 layout/challenge and that's totally fine...if you're on a roll, then go for it! Also, if you don't have a blog or online gallery to post your page, then you can just email us your layout to thegoodieboxgirls@hotmail.com....we don't want anyone to be left out!
We are having fun brainstorming ideas for the goodie boxes, but we also hope that sponsors will make donations for the goodie boxes, too....so if you are interested in making a donation, once again, just email us at thegoodieboxgirls@hotmail.com.
Thanks, everyone!!!
Talia:)
