Don't know where October went, but it is nearly time for a new set of monthly challenges...
donna was a long time Pea who was taken from us long before her time. Her last scrapbooking effort had been to complete her kids' albums before time ran out. Many Peas, coordinated by jenjie and myboysnme , helped with that project. A Pea we have not heard from in a long while, kiwigirl , set up this challenge to keep DONNA's memory alive. So now we honour Donna's memory by getting our own photos into scrapbooks while WE have time to do that. Each month we set a challenge to get those photos glued onto pages. And we also have a theme
Theme for this November DONNA challenge: "My favourite". I don't know about you, but I don't scrap alot of information about myself. And yet I often wonder what my mother's and grandmothers' experiences were like from their perspective. No one expects you to designate one day as the BEST DAY EVER, or one of your kids over any of the others. This is our chance to choose something we enjoy and scrap about it--a fav colour, season, food, activity, art technique, shoes, outfit for going out or staying in, game, seat in the vehicle--actually anything that rocks your world at this point in time. Hey, use your favourite colour and favourite technique to scrap about that comfy sweater you reach for whenever you want to relax...
This challenge is open to anyone, but if you are a member of a challenge team looking for points: ONE point for EACH photo you scrap in November, 2023, no matter the theme. TEN points for meeting the NOVEMBER Donna theme on your project
Have fun with this, and please share your take on this challenge in this thread. I have trouble selecting favourites, but I promise I will give this one a try. Hope to have it posted within the next week or so.

My favourite season is FALL! I need to type up journaling and glue it to the back of one of the pages to explain what it is that I LOVE about this season: the sights, the sounds, the tastes, the chill in the air. I used a sketch (one of Allison Davis's) from FALL 2023 SCT magazine. I love FALL most of all by Gramma Dee, on Flickr Funny story: the time change and the heat in my hotel room conspired to have me awake at 3:30AM. And my love of fall (and all my autumn scrappy supplies) kept me focussed to complete this LO.
