Judi's Challenge:  I plan to fill the rest of the egg shells with soil and seeds. The yellow ceramic egg was a little gift from my secret sister. I had to include it because we were one egg short (due to a tragic fall) and it is partially what inspired this project.

Weekly Challenge April 3 - April 9


This weeks challenge will be a bit different.  I am going to give a specific example of what can be done: for scrapbookers, give two pieces of solid paper, two pieces of pattern paper, and an embellishment to another scrapbooker.  As an added challenge, also give them some of your pictures you want scrapped.  The other scrapbooker will do the layout the way they do them, and you will end up with a different layout from what you are used to.  I have a group of four scrapbookers and we will all pick names out of a hat to see who gets what.  I think it will be fun.  If you do not scrapbook or dont have friends that scrapbook, switch art supplies. Maybe you have a friend that does something you have been wanting to try but didnt have the supplies and vice versa.  Im really hoping we get a good turn out from this.  This was a great idea from a follower of this website.  Have fun!
