Friday Scrapbook layout

Happy Friday!

Today's post is a scrapbook page that I was preparing for the Stampin'Up! Artisan Contest.  Every year, Stampin'Up! has a contest for demonstrators -- each demonstrator that participates sends in 5 cards, 3 scrapbook layouts and 2 3D items.  The contest opens in January and closes on May 31st.  I started my projects and had every intention of submitting my projects, but then I was placed on bed rest for 3 weeks, so I decided to wait until next year.  Stampin'Up! selects 10 winners each year and it's a huge honor and accomplishment.  Each winner is awarded with $500 cash and a $500 shopping spree.  In additon, each Artisan Award winner recieves new products monthly to create projects that are often featured on the SU Facebook page, website and catalogs.  SU also picks 10 runner-ups that recieve a $250 shopping spree.  I figured it wouldn't hurt to try for it, so next year, I'll be busy from January - May preparing my entry!!

These pictures are from last year-- I'm really behind on scrapbooking.  Honestly, scrapbooking is really hard for me, so it takes me a long time to come up with ideas and - I'm not sure if others feel this way - but I have a hard time cutting the photos for cute layouts.  I can't wait for My Digital Studio 2 to come out - that might be a better way for me to scrapbook.
