Giveaway!!

In honor of my new column I am doing a giveaway today! It is the new book 101 Expert Solutions that will be coming out in the next couple of weeks. This is a book put together from this past year’s SOY, (Elizabeth Karchner) Dream Team, and Hall of Fame winners. Post your comment and I will randomly draw a few winners!

Good luck!

ANNOUNCING!

Since August and the big announcement of becoming the 2008 Scrapbooker of the Year for Creating Keepsakes, I have been preparing my new column, traveling to CKC in Seattle, and doing lots of fun projects. The hard part has been that I haven't been able to talk too much about my new column or anything I have been doing for CK ...

UNTIL NOW!

Today I get to announce my new column being printed in the January 2009 Issue of Creating Keepsakes.

My column is Mandy's Challenge and will appear every month!

I provide fun and exciting challenges using the experiences I have had in scrapbooking for twenty years, and hope to inspire some creative projects for you. Each month, I will pose a challenge to a few different scrapbookers and show the results in my column.

In the upcoming new issue for January 2009, you’ll see my first challenge—creating a set of layouts and projects for under $5.

Be sure to check back on Wednesday for a giveaway, and Thursday where I will be the Guest for Happy Hour on the CK thread this Thursday Evening (and how about another give away?) I will give you definite times as I know them!

I am so excited to share my challenges with you, and hope in someway, I can inspire you, as well as the AWESOME scrapbookers that have taken the challenges as well!

Last but not least, Monday (December 8) I will have a new Challenge Group where you can post your results of taking my challenge!

Well, I am off to cleaning my house, putting up Christmas Decorations, and hoping Bryson is still sleeping!
