Scrap Whispers Is Back!

What is Scrap Whispers?

Remember that game you used to play as a kid? Where you secretly whisper a phrase to the next person sat in a circle, who then whispers it to the next person and so on? The last person announces the phrase out loud and this usually results in a completely different phrase than the one you started off with?!

Well, thats basically how scrap whispers works too. Only with scrapbook layouts instead of a phrase!

Scrap Whispers in its current form has been around for 2 years now and we're now on our 4th round! Due to its increasing popularity we outgrew our old space on the web, hence this new challenge blog was born. I hope it will become a more permanent residence for us going forward.

How Does it work?

Firstly you sign up by sending an email to: Gh26@sky.com with your full name, email address and a link to your blog if you have one.

Each game will last for 2 months, after which we will open sign ups again.

You then get allocated to a team of other participants. In your team, you will have a team leader who will be a member of our design team.

Each main whispers challenge runs for 2 months in total and will be co-ordinated by your team leader. It will involve you scraplifting one layout that is passed to you. I pass a layout to your team leader who will scraplift it, then pass their layout to another member of your team. That person will scraplift your team leaders layout and pass it onto someone else in the team and so on.

At the end of the 2 months, team leaders will reveal all their team layouts in one go and you will be able to see the progression as the "whisper" got passed on! Its fascinating to see how the layouts change.

Points will be awarded and the winning team each wins a RAK.

In addition, each week there will be a new challenge posted on the blog. These will not be team challenges, but individual challenges. You do not have to participate in these challenges if you do not want to. Each challenge will be worth individual bonus points however.

At the end of the 2 months, the person with the most amount of points will also win a RAK.

Its great fun to play and its interesting to see the whispers challenge layouts and how they each differ from the next. Plus, you get to make some new friends in your teams!
