Yes! It will soon be time to start our second month of the decade.
If you have played before, you know the drill.
If you have not played on one of our teams before, this is how it goes: you sign up by replying to this thread before 9:00PM MST, Friday, January 31st, telling us you want to play. That evening I will draw names for the two teams.
From the time the teams are set until 9:00PM MST Monday evening, February 3rd, you can lay down challenges in the February Challenges thread. They can be challenges to create a particular project--say a page, or a card, or a piece of wall art,--Use a particular colour or material or technique or texture, use particular number or size of photos on a page, particular fonts, letters, or images, start or finish a project, or... Make it a challenge that will keep YOU excited about scrapping, maybe something that will get you going to actually FINISH that little mini album.
AND, you get to earn one point for your team each time you:
*set a challenge (except for daily hosts, these would be challenges set by the end of February 3rd)
*create something no matter the size.
*share a photo or scan of that creation with us.
Then you can choose to score points by either of these counting systems. And you don't have to stick to one system, so you can use one system for one creation and the other for another. We don't want to spend all our time doing MATH, so do what is easiest for you.
OLD SCHOOL
*meet ANY of the challenges. You can claim points for every challenge your creation meets, PLUS any bonus points offered up by that challenge. No limit to how many challenges you meet with one creation. And you can use any of the challenges for points any number of creations during the month!
EASY PEASY:
After you have calculated in your creating (1 point) and sharing (1 point), you claim a flat number of points for each creation, depending on its SIZE
**Give yourself 20 points for every creation that is at least 8”x11”.
*Give yourself 15 points for each creation that is between 5”x7” and 8”x11”
*Give yourself 10 points for any creation smaller than 5”x7”
This month we will also be celebrating 29-4-29, which features one host for each day of the week. On that host's day, she will provide us with a new challenge, a sample to inspire us, and a TWIST! And you can earn more points for your team by taking on those challenges--and for the twists. You don't have to be a team member to play along with 29-4-29, but if you are going to take it on, you may as well be earning points for a team, right?
So... ya wanna PLAY?

). And I've planned an hour for photo workflow this weekend so I can finally place a print order. Alright, let's do this. Please sign me up for (hopefully lucky) February!
