Scrap Yourself!
Girls - say you will join me for a challenge!
I have it permanently rammed down my throat about how "odd" I should scrap myslef - be it family, DH, friends. I dont think this is odd - after all - is DH/boyf/fiance/parents gonna scrap about you? - something to pass down the line? I want my daughter to know me - what I like - why I love her etc etc so whilst I was doing a little 6x6 page about me last night using very basic scrap supplies I thought - "I know - I'll get everyone to do one".
I encourage you to make just a small page to make into a small book - perhaps a paperbag book....a little bom, discreet enough to save for days when you feel the need to express yourself. And when you have done one - load it to the gallery. There is a prize for the one that makes me cry - which infact most of them do!!!! The majority have used the "I am a Mother"/"I am a Woman" title but feel free to choose a suitable title but do include doodles and primas if you can xx
Will you come and play?
**loads of you have signed up - i have had one international interest who has finished already - its on my blog. Infact - we now have 8 Celebrity scrappers onboard so far - Donna Downey, Cathy Zielske, Rhonna Farrer, Renee Pearson, Ali Edwards, Wendy Smedley (editor of simple scrapbooks) Tara Whitney, Emily Falconbridge and Donna Wild (oz scrapper)**

Excellent idea - I made an 8x8 My Book About Me last Autumn. I have the scanned pages all in a webshots album - is it okay to post the link?
-
Never mind substance, let's go for style!
Love this idea Kirsty. I'll try and have a go!
Debra (Maggs 0034) did a book about herself and after she died, we all felt it would be so cherished by her boys and her husband.
But we don't need to do it and be morbid. Just celebrate us!!!

All you need is Kraft...
I'm up for giving this a go...
-
Everything you see.......
Sounds fun, I'll play Kirsty I think we should all scrap ourselves more.

Dedicated Scrapper
Can I join in too please ???
I actually hate the thought of scrapping myself (in fact I haven't so far) so would really find this a challenge.
-
Handbag, shoe and choco - holic!
Does this have to be a new page??
I think it is a shame that you've had this reaction, Kirsty. I'd get all huffy and artistic on them
There are a long line of artistic endeavours that celebrate the self. How about......
diaries
autobiographies
self portraits
needlework samplers
.....there must be more, but it is late!

This sounds really interesting Kirsty. Is there are a deadline?

My own sweet angel
I keep getting the urge to do a BOM but never get round to actually doing it. so I may make this into a paper bag book. I agree with carol4312, it would be a challenge that i may have to take up.

Shall I do it? Can I do it? Can I bear to look at a LO of me - I don't know - but I'll give it a go.
