Weekly Challenge; August 14 to August 20

I dont know about you, but I am highly anticipating Fall. With it comes cooler temperatures and beautiful colors. Instead of the traditional fall colors that we are used to, I decided to find a different kind of Fall Palette. This is from the Pantone Color Institute, the Fashion Color Report of 2011. Do your challenge with some or all of these colors:

STREAMLINE

This week, have your project flow along a line. It doesn't have to be a scrapbook page either. Below, I've posted a layout as an example.

I love how the elements on the page stay on a line. Try it!

Welcome to JeM!

Who are we? The "Je" is for Jeri. The "M" is for Melanie. We are friends, creators, scrapbookers and collectors of TOO MUCH STUFF! Paper crafting stuff, that is.

So why the blog? Duh! As an avenue to inspiration, and a kick-in-the-butt to use up our stuff. We hope that by posting challenges, we will not only stick to our (glue) guns and keep creating, but we will inspire others like ourselves. You know, others like you, who look around your crafting space and think, "Where do I begin?!"

So, let's go! We'll post different challenges monthly on each of our pages. (Hold us to this, please. We're busy moms too!)

Your job is to take those challenges and run with it. It doesn't have to be scrapbooking - just be creative in the media of your choosing!

We have also included a Recipe page, because I dont know about you, but we are always looking for something delicious to cook for our family. Post your favorite recipes, or a recipe that you want to try, and make sure you submit a picture with it too because we want to drool!

And most importantly, send us your photos please! We'll post 'em as proof that you got something creative done! Then, of course, feel free to pat yourself on the back. Good job!
