What Is In My Bag October 2010 Challenge

Its time for another brand new challenge here at Scrap-it-lah.  We are pleased to unveil our slightly invasive "What is in your handbag?" Challenge.  We thought it would be fun to document some day to day life scenarios and one of the things that we women can't do without is our handbags.  We would like you to take a photo/photos of your handbag and the contents of it and scrap it into a layout for us this month.

Most of the DTs came up with the usual list of things in their respective bags and only 2 DTs had cameras in their bags.  We have a very messy DT here too and do check out their layouts to find out what our DTs carry around with them in their bags.

Don't we love DT Jessy's white and red combination? A hand sanitizer in this day and age is definitely a must!

DT Yatie has listed all the things she can't do without in her bag.

DT Amelia sharing her secret stash in her bag.

Love how DT Nad has neatly categorised all her stuff in different little mini bags.

DT Michelle with her very messy bag.

DT Nadhrah is thrilled with the latest addition in her bag.

1)  12 sheets of K n Co Double-Sided patterned papers!
2)  K n Co Coordinating Sticker Alphas
3)  K n Co Coordinating Sticker Sayings
4)  Thickers Chipboard Alphas

September Scraplift Challenge

What is scraplifting?  Scraplifting is simply defined would be the copying of other people's idea or work for your layouts. Scraplifting is often a sticky topic for most scrapbookers.  Should we do it or not?  It is often convenient when one is low in creative juices or mojo but at the same time the person who we have scraplifted the ideas from is not so appreciative that we copied their ideas.  Why?  More often than not,  it takes time to think of something new or creative to be used in the layout.  Seeing the idea duplicated without any reference naturally upsets the creator.

However,  some scrappers find it flattering when others copy their ideas.  For us here,  the general rule would be that if we do need to borrow ideas from anyone else,  it would be great to just credit the creator.  It is not hard - just needs some linking or reference to where you have seen such an idea - no sweat.

This month,  all the DTs have long admired their co-DTs works of art and we have decided to scraplift each other's work and we would you like to play along with us.

All you have to do is to choose a piece of layout which you like from any of our DTs,  scrap it and send it back to us.  Please don't forget to tell us on where you took the layout from.  Another important thing to remember is that please do take the layouts which are not based on any sketches from other sites.  

DT Jessy scraplifted from DT Yatie's My Guy layout.

DT Nad scraplifted Jessy's cute little lo on her family and turned into a best friend's layout.

DT Amelia grunged up her scraplifted layout from DT Nad's Friendship layout.

DT Michelle scraplifted DT Amelia's daughter's layout.

Lastly,  DT Yatie turned DT Michelle's boyish layout into a girlish cheery one.  

Here is the yummy RAK that we have prepared for you this month:

1)  9 pieces of Glitter,  Flocked and Embossed paper by Me and My Big Ideas
2)  Pink Paislee Artisan Tape
3)  Maya Road Banner Album
4)  Thickers Alphas
5)  Felt Border
6)  Kaiser Rubons
7)  Stamp By Daisy D
8)  Petaloo Flowers
9)  Pebbles Stackers
