This challenge is for those who scrap slowly and need encouragement to keep scrapping all month or those who want a little encouragement to continue scrapping. It is great for those new to Challenges and is a fun place to come chat with other Pokey scrappers. 1. Post a layout each week, or four layouts per month. These need to be posted in the body of your message post. LAYOUTS MUST BE HOSTED FROM ANOTHER SITE SUCH AS PHOTOBUCKET.2. This challenge can be combined with any other challenges and can be paper, digital or hybrid scrapping. These can be cards, layouts or altered items. 3. Please comment on the work of others on the thread as your time allows. We all love comments on our layouts. 4. Have fun with this! This should be a "no pressure" challenge. Just post what you finish whether it is one layout or more than four. Come chat with the group as time permits. We love to welcome new members . There are no prizes for this challenge, just a chance to enjoy the works of other Pokey Peas Refugees. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.  Nylene |

Oh Good Morning! So good to get up and find that we have this new home! Thank you Nylene for the new thread and all of the work you have done to get it up and running! I love our new name it gives me a chuckle! I have a tutorial on how to post over at Photobucket and will try to get it linked to this thread. Here are a few layouts I did over the weekend. Bloom & Grow Cliff SwallowsLife is a JourneyI guess you will need to add comments in with your post as there is no way to add it on the viewing page. Can't wait to see everyone chatting here! I have missed you all! |

Good morning Nylene, Cindy and Pat! I am so grateful the Pokey Peas are continuing here. What a week this has been. Did you all upload your gallery to scrapbook.com?
Now that things are settled with challenges I may finally get back to the hobby!

I'm pokey! I need to get back into the swing of things. DS is turning 18 next week, and I have year 1 done. UGH! I also have up to grade 4 done. The down side to all of this, is I have 3 more kids to do!
My goal is to get as much stuff kitted as I can so when I have time, I can sit down and get pages done.

Just do what you can and share it with us for inspiration! Please let us know a little more about you! I am Cindy, wife mother grandmother and retired nurse. I have only been scrapping for 5-1/2 years and do both digi and traditional. |

Hey gang!!!! So glad to you we survived. This made my day. How did you all move your Two Peas gallery? Hey Kelly! Scrapbook.com was kind enough to let us move our galleries to their site. Here is the tool and you will need your pea number which is under your avatar on the old thread. You will need an account there also if you don't already have one. Here is the link: gallery removal tool It will take 20-30 minutes. So glad to see you here!!!!! BBL |

A little about me. My name is Buffy, Im a never at home mom of 4, three boys and one girl. Married 20 years. I'm a disney addict and a runner.
Started scrapping in 2004 after our first Disney trip. I do traditional because I love paper. I would like to do digital but I stink at it. LOL

As I said to Miss Bianca we strive for four layouts a month but if life gets in the way we understand. We mainly encourage each other to scrap! If you do more then 4 a month that is ok too!!! awesome! I think that is doable My name is Corinne, I am 27 and I have always loved journaling, making cards, scrapping, and anything crafty since I was little. I have been married for a little over 2 years and we have 3 furbabies who really are like our children! We got our house last September and I setup my 1st real craft room, it is so nice to have! I was working out of big toolboxes on wheels before (seriously!!) that I would drag out into the living room when I wanted to work. I love paper so I dont do digital scrapping and I have just started integrating WRMK Albums Made Easy Pages into my traditional books so I am hoping that goes well! Glad to be scrapping with you ladies, my old bff I would scrap with no longer scraps so I feel like a loner!  |

Just got back from dinner out with the gang and am so happy to see new Pokeys joining. Miss Bianca and Corrine, so glad to have you joining in. This is a no pressure challenge. Can't wait to see what you do. I have Disney pictures to scrap, so Miss Bianca, I'm looking to you for inspiration.
Pam, glad you found your way here. We can't do without your layouts.
Yeah, Kelly is here! How's the guitar coming?
Sarah, fill us in on your southern drawl.
Pat, I've missed you and your layouts of those cute granddaughters who must be half grown my now. We need layouts!!
Cindy, your layouts are amazing. I called Sammie in to look at the birdies. Love, love, love them. Wish we could post comments on them. Which link did you click to post just the link? When I posted the first 2peas layout I ever did, I used the IMAGE code from photobucket and the whole photo showed up. To get just the link, do you copy the direct link? I'll go back and reread your instructions you sent. I'm not sure which way the admin. wants it posted. She just said host it off site.
I'm Nylene, mother of 4, grandmother of 14, 10 of whom are all over my house while the Calif. cousins are staying here. It's a really noisy place and I'm not getting much done, but have had a lot of baby holding time. DH and I have been married 46 years and live in Utah. I worked as an elem. teacher and then a Medical Office manager. Just home wondering where all this "retirement time" goes every day. Seems like I'm as busy as before. I teach Cub Scouts and 4-H.
So glad to have you all here.

Nylene I've missed you & your sweet pages too. My Gds are now 12 &10. They are taller than me(not hard to do, as I'm only 5').
Pam I have missed seeing your beautiful digi pages.
Kelly can't wait to see some of your beautiful cards.

Nylene I picked up the direct code. Was not sure which one to use. I will look also and change it if I need to. I like how Pat linked it to her blog I may do that then you can comment if you choose to. Here's a link to the article I read I hope I am reading it correctly. link |
