Have you visited our scrapbooking inspiration site StampAMemory?  We're kicking off the year with the first of our scrapbooking challenges.  If you've made a New Year's Resolution to get more scrapbooking happening in 2010, perhaps our challenges will be just the thing to get those layouts going.  There are prizes to be won too for a little extra incentive.

You'll find all the details of the first challenge by clicking here.   StampAMemory Challenge 1.

Here is my Challenge 1 inspired layout.

We don't often get photos with Santa but came across this warm smiling Santa at Milleara Shopping Centre and I just love the photo.  (I'm not sure of the photography company to credit as it just had Milleara Shopping Centre on the packaging.)

I made a stack of cards with an I Wish Simply Scrappin' Kit earlier in 2009 and decided to use the leftover bits and pieces for this layout.  The textured choc chip cardstock, die cut border stickers and die cut title and journalling block made it a super quick layout to put together.

I used my Real Red and Choc Chip markers so my journalling coordinated with the layout.

Some red rhinestone brads were a little finishing touch.

So have you got some Christmas photos fresh off the camera.  Grab your scrapping gear and enter our StampAMemory Challenge 1.  Good luck!

Cheers, Sue
