SBVC45......10.1.08...October Bizarre and Unique Holidays
SBVC45.....10.1.08...October Bizarre and Unique Holidays
I've pretty much tend to stay away from theme challenges, but since today is the first of the month, and I don't think I've ever posted on the first, I thought I'd give this a try.
My challenge to you this week should you choose to accept it....use one of the holidays (list posted below, since it was to loooong to list here) as a prompt to a LO. You don't need to include the date of the holiday or even the holiday title.
my sample:
Wacky Day - I chose October 17 "Wear Something Gaudy Day" but used pictures from DGD's Wacky Day at school.
I can't wait to see your ideas!
you can find all submissions for this challenge here: SBVC45
SBC's Information Thread: Everything you need to know to participate!
The OPD (One Page Doc, aka: Master Challenge Thread) that includes all challenges on one page for your printing convenience can be found here: OPD
If you have any questions please feel free to contact any one of the SBCT (scrapbook challenge team)via pm or simply post your question in this thread.

I love this one, Peggy and will definitely take the challenge once I finish last week's Upside Down Challenge.
I did do a couple of pages a while ago that fit the challenge for MAD HATTER DAY, so I'm posting them too.

Whether you came up with the idea yourself or not, you still had to use your creativie mind to realize it would be a fun challenge!! You always have cool challenges!
Now that I don't have to think upside-down anymore  , I can start working on an idea for this challenge--I have photos for two *holidays* in mind so far!

Don't forget World Card Making Day on the 4th. If you're getting together with some friends is would be a great scrapping opportunity.

the scrapbook challenge team decided to spread out the challenges since not everyone scraps on the week-ends (me for example:mrgreen: ) and it was easier for us (the hostesses) to post on different days.
schedule:
Inspiration challenge is posted on Monday
Variety challenge is posted on Wednesday
Sketch challenge stays on Friday |

Wow, I never knew all the silly meanings attached to each calendar day, this is fun. The one that caught my eye was the Moment of Frustration Day. It reminded me of the time my husband decided to make a pyramid out of the glass coke bottles. As you can imagine, that didn't end all that well, but at least I had picture to capture the moment:

I finally got my pages done for this challenge--and for once, I'm not a full week behind!
I chose "Curious Events Day* for this two-pager--my granddaughter and I made Magical Sea Animals and she learned about pinwheels--both curious and wondrous things for a 5-year-old!
Magical Sea Pals and Bee in the Breeze-right
Left
Both pages
This was really fun, Peggy. I have more ideas and hopefully one day i'll get to do another crazy holiday page!
