Let's Scrap Challenge #182

This is for Let's Scrap Challenge #182,

here are Janet's instructions for this challenge

Hi all

I have a lovely challenge for you this week. There are a few lovely places that I go to when I want some happy time. I am sure you all have those places as well. So for my challenge, I would like you share your

HAPPY PLACE

Rules:
Layouts to feature photo or photos of the place that makes you happy, the place you just enjoy and love to go to. This place can be somewhere outdoors or indoors - but not your scraproom and preferably away from home. And the LO should focus on the PLACE, not people. People can be in the photos but only as props.
Card girls - you can use a sentiment or picture of your happy place.

Additional requirements:
At least one of the embellishments, paper, detail or technique must affirm your happy place, ie book embellie for a library, leaves for a park, etc.
Some doodling.
And journalling saying why that place makes you happy. It would be nice if your journalling is handwritten. You can always do a hidden journal tag if you don't like your handwriting.

You must use a Let’s Scrap Sketch. And you can do either a layout or a card.

So here is what I did... My Happy Place is

Las Vegas Baby!!!!

DT for 1~2~3 Get Scrappy!

Hello everyone!

Welcome to 123 Get Scrappy

We have a wonderful bunch of ladies on our Design Team. Unfortunately all of them cannot stay for another term. So, we are looking for a couple of new faces!

KEEP IN MIND
We are a scrapbook layout and/or mini album challenge blog. These are the only two creations that can be entered in our challenges. These are the only two things that can be created by our Design Team for this blog. I love cards and make them often, but we are NOT a card challenge blog. :)

The term will be:

March - August

Requirements:

~You must have a Face book account. We have a private group on FB where all the upcoming challenges are posted, we post our favorites and creations are posted for me to add to the challenge. Creations must be loaded to the FB group by the 5th of the month that you are creating for (in other words, 5 days before the challenge is due to give me time to make the post)

~You have to have had a blog for at least 1 year and be active in posting to that blog.

~You must create once a month for our challenges.

~ You must be available to comment on creations. There's nothing I dislike more than entering a challenge on someone's blog and no one commenting on my entry. That is just not nice. So, this is a big MUST!

~ International applicants welcome!

*********************

If you are interested, all you have to do is:

*Become a follower of our blog.

* Post about our Design Team Call on your blog to get the word out.

* Send me an email at forcrafting{at}yahoo{dot}com with the following information:

1. Your full name and where you are from

2. A link to your blog

3. Pics of 3 of your favorite layouts and/or mini albums. Recent creations are preferred.

4. Any current design teams you are a part of (Design Team experience is not a requirement)

5. A short bio telling us about your crafty story/background.

* You have until February 5th (at midnight Central time zone) to apply.

The new members will be notified by February 10th and given the March challenge board to begin creating.

New DT members will be revealed with the March 10th Challenge.

* Remember, this is a 6 month commitment. Please be aware and only apply if you truly believe you will be able to commit to this term.

I can't wait to visit your blogs!
