It's Blog Hop time



Scrapbook Challenges not only has a new DT but also a NEW SITE. We would love for you to join us and celebrate all that is new with Seasons of Change Blog Hop and of course win some prizes.

Now I guess you need to know a little about me, so here goes:
My friends can testify to the fact that I have a slightly bizarre sense of humour.  My favourite colour is blue.  I'm a scrap-a-holic who simply adores chocolate.... ask me to do you a favour and payment will be in chocolate!  I'm a wife to Keith and mother to Aaron (10 years old).  Not too much else comes to mind off hand, except to say that I live in Roodepoort, Gauteng, South Africa (near Johannesburg for those who don't know the geography of our country).  I've been paper scrapping for around 8 years now - simply love it!

HERE IS THE LIST OF PRIZES FROM SCRAPBOOK CHALLENGES.
Hop On Prize (for completing a layout based on the Blog Hop Sketch and posting to the Hop On Thread):

And now for some extra fun - the blog hop sketch reveal:


I choose to do the double page as I love doing layouts with LOTS of photos

So choose a sketch, do the layout and post it to the Hop On Thread in the Forum. There will be lots of other games and challenges all weekend on the forum too, so hurry over and join if you are not already a member. Check the site tomorrow too when I will be hosting a challenge!

Thanks for visiting. Now for your next stop on the blog hop, head over to Dinah

Thanks so much for the great comments so far. And Allison, yes this is a paper layout - I have only attempted one digi layout to date - years ago! Much prefer the feel of paper than doing scrapping on the pc. Happy Hopping everyone.
