For those of you (like myself) who are HOPELESSLY addicted to the scrapbooking challenges, this is the place where you can find them ALL together!

On a weekly basis, both a Word document and an Adobe Acrobat file (recommended) will be added to this thread with the following:

SBSC - the current scrapbooking SKETCH challenge
SBVC - the current scrapbooking VARIETY challenge (formerly themes)
IFC - the current scrapbooking INSPIRATION FOUND challenge
DGC - the current scrapbooking DIGITAL challenge

The challenges used to be posted by noon on Fridays, and the purpose of the "One Page Doc" or OPD was to give you something tangible to keep on your craft table while you scrap over the weekend.
*For the most recent scrapbooking challenges be sure to view the LAST post in this thread!* If you are new to the challenges and would like to play along, just click on the keywords (ie. SBVC40). This will take you to the thread where that challenge was posted. From there you can "meet" other players and see the pages they post too! For more info about SCS challenges go HERE.

You can also subscribe to this thread and receive an email each time the NEW doc is posted!!! Just click on Thread Tools above and select "Subscribe to this Thread" from there you can pick instant, daily or weekly updates! But PLEASE do NOT post in this thread!!

If you scrap any of the challenges, why not upload to your gallery!? Everyone LOVES to get KUDOS, so use the KEYWORDS and you might just be surprised by all the COMMENTS you receive! Just PLEASE follow the NO UPLOAD on SUNDAY rule!!!

When I found these challenges I was re-inspired to work on my scrapbooks, and even though I don't have as much free time these days, I can't imagine not having them for inspiration!!!
Originally the scrapbooking challenge forum just had sketches, but when I came on the scene there were also theme challenges to scrap. So to make things easier for myself, I was putting them into a Word document to print and refer to as I selected pictures to scrap with. Since I had developed such great friendships here with other chatty SCSers I started sharing them!

Beginning sometime in March I started adding links back to the challenge threads. This is somewhat important, because if you are scrapping these challenges, and even uploading with the keywords, you may not get the attention you deserve unless you post a link in the original challenge thread. By doing that, the thread is bumped to the top and anyone viewing the challenges will see there is a new post! Then you can be assured we will see what you've uploaded, and you will reap the rewards of comments -- we all LOVE to get those!
So in the interest of time saving, the links below will open another window or tab with the individual post:
