weekly challenge

Good morning, SC friends! US gals, I hope you're enjoying the long weekend - and everyone else, happy Monday!

I'm finding myself more and more drawn to scrapping NOW photos. There's something about getting the story onto a page while it's still fresh in your mind. I shot this photo on a Wednesday night, blogged it on a Thursday, and had it all on a page by Friday.

(supplies : patterned paper - Studio Calico Heyday Crush, Breezy and Cheerful and Heyday 6x6 pad; veneer - Studio Calico stars ; thickers - Ali Aqua ; mask - Studio Calico Ampersand ; mist - Studio Calico Mister Huey's Clay, Gold & Shine ; stickers - Studio Calico Heyday 12x12 Alpha & Shapes ; stamps - Heyday Sentiments, Style Guide Add-on, Pop Off the Page class kit ; ink - Prima Tin Can ; other - Tiny Attacher, Style Guide and Road Show add-ons, washi tape, badge, chipboard button, arrow clip)

For my challenge this week, I want you to scrap a NOW photo. Start with a story from the last couple of weeks and capture those emotions while they're still at the forefront of your mind. I can't wait to see what you make!  Link your project here by September 10th for a chance to win a $5 gift card to the Studio Calico Shop.

Ooo I like this challenge. I hardly ever scrap my "now" photos, so I really hope I get to do this one.

very cool layout :)

I really like this challenge but one question, are we supposed to only scrap one photo, or can we use multiple "now" photos on one layout?

[lisa truesdell]

Hayley - go ahead and put as many photos on there as you like! =)

This is only the second page I have made for my 7 month old daughter's baby book. This was a great challenge to get me going!

Loved this challenge, I'm a huge NOW scrapper. Sometimes I have a LO ready one hour after taking a good shot;)

From last weekend, when we actually had some sunshine so he popped outside to build :) I actually find I only scrap now things, I keep looking at all those baby pictures thinking I really should do something with them but just cant get into the groove of "old" photo's!

We must be on the same wavelength Lisa. I have only been desiring to scrap current photos too. Here is my layout called One Step at a Time:
