Me and a Pumpkin Patch . . . with Barbara!

Good morning everyone and happy Friday!

We have some exciting news to share:  this month, Challenge YOUrself is going to offer 
TWO random prizes!  Yes, in order to spark your interest and 
encourage YOU to join our color challenge, we added a second random prize:)

The TWO prizes are as follows:

1) This beautiful Susan Branch scrapbook

2) AND you have a chance to win this stamp/die-cut set:

So without further ado, here is our featured layout for this week, made by Barbara:

We love the way Barbara used her fall colored papers to create this wonderful layout.  

And we especially like the photos with HER in them.  Thanks, Barbara!

We hope this inspires you to create a work of art for our challenge this month!

We are looking forward to seeing your layouts.

Happy Scrapping:)

A Challenge YOUrself Announcement!

Today marks the beginning of December and it will be time to say good-bye to some very special people at Challenge YOUrself.  

First of all, we are saying good-bye to one of our long-standing design team members, Lisa Haiss.  We can't thank you enough for your wonderful contribution to this team!  We will miss you!

Secondly, our blog owner, Lynn Lefebvre has decided to step down.  She feels in her heart that she needs to spend more time with her family and less time in front of the computer.  We will miss her so much and wish her all the best in her future endeavors!  Thank you, Lynn, for giving me the opportunity to keep this challenge blog going!  I feel it is really important to keep YOU in the photos, and this is such a great way to do it!  

So . . . without further ado, I would like to introduce the design team for January, 2016 through June, 2016!
