Challenge 98 : Scraplifting Challenge

Hello... Hello.... Anybody out there?! LOL It feels like we're out in the wilderness on our own!

If you are still there, it's Friday again and that means another of our weekly challenges. We're a site that's really all about the main scrapwhisper team game - thats based on scraplifting. So we thought it would be a good idea to have a regular scraplifting challenge for you all to practice on!

This week we challenge you to scraplift this layout by our very own Helen Salthouse:

Cool huh?!

The design team of course couldn't wait to get started on this challenge and this is what they created:

Now it's over to you. Scraplift Helen's layout and then come back here to tell us all about it! Link your layouts using the button below. Remember there is a prize up for grabs as pictured in the top of the column on the right of this page. We need at least 5 people playing before the prize will be awarded so we need 4 more people playing quick time! LOL

A big shout out to Tracy who so far this month is our only player!

Surprise! We're back! And this time is for real! LOL - Yes, so sorry we've totally abandoned you all haven't we! Holiday and Vacation time, summer activities and more have kept us away but we're all fully relaxed and have a bundle of renewed energy! We've been thinking long and hard about the scrapwhisper site recently and have come up with a new and improved plan - one that will fit right on into everyone's routines. We have some cool prizes to give away and we can't wait to get started!  To find out more, check out the tabs across the top of this page!!
In the meantime, lets get started with our first challenge of September!!

This month Nilsa challenges you to alter a composition notebook.


For Nilsa's book she used leftover scrap papers and teeny tiny alpha letters. Instead of hand stitching or hand sewing she faux stitched the edge of the notebook too....

Once you decide the theme of your composition notebook gather all your supplies. For Nilsa's notebook she used:

Paper trimmer
x acto Knife
Tape Runner or adhesive of your choice
Distressing Ink
Ink
Tab puncher
Glass Mat
Chipboard and alphas
Scrap pieces

She started by tracing the notebook onto the paper. Then she cut the excess paper with her scissors. She used the atg gun to glue the kraft paper onto the notebook then sanded they edges, finishing with Tim Holtz distressing ink to distress the edges. She did exactly the same to her front cover.

Nilsa then went on to decorate the front cover. She used her puncher and cut out some tabs for the subjects of her notebook.

A nice quick and easy project thats brilliant for those of you going back to school! Want to see how Nilsa's Notebook turned out? CLICK HERE to visit her blog to see! Whilst you're in the blog hopping mood why not check out the rest of the DT and take a look at their altered notebooks too.

When you've done all that, give this challenge a go yourself and then link us to your books by leaving your details in the link thingmejig below! :) If you play along you will be entered into the September prize draw. You can enter as many times as you like with different notebooks too and it doesnt matter where you live in the world - we ship everywhere! :)
