Very colorful and a little bit of shabby in style. Second, the concept of nursery rhymes in her mini book is awesome. I love the way she envelopes the rhymes and magically turned it into a mother goose mini with ATC's surely to captivate our eyes! Finally, her 4d mini book style is just so creative! A priceless treasure indeed!"<br /><br />Great job Helga!scrappinmomshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11193284547945918441noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730715809151114251.post-64909278050096936882009-08-11T00:16:00.003+08:002009-08-11T00:20:44.285+08:00SMI3 Round 6 Gallery<div style="text-align: center;">This is the last week of challenges and thabnk you for such inspiring creations from our Idol hopefuls.<br /><br />It's now time to see who answered the question...<span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"> </span><a style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);" href="http://www.scrappinmoms.net/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=93">"If I were a Disney Princess..."</a><br /></span><br />Lots of techniques to learn from all these ladies!<br /><br />Tomorrow, we announce who will be the TOP 10 Finalists...<br /></div>scrappinmomshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11193284547945918441noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730715809151114251.post-70834800838694752472009-08-10T22:01:00.003+08:002009-08-10T22:10:10.831+08:00SMI 3 - Idol Pick of the Week (Round 4)I know you are all excited to see the creations for this week.

What caught my attention this time was LG's concept of the whole layout using her picture and a short journaling which tells all. The pocket insert for dried flowers and the balanced cluster of flowers is really cool! I also love how she positioned her round pictures which made the layout visually pleasing. The leaves and the flowers suited perfectly with each other. Indeed, a really playful layout!"scrappinmomshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11193284547945918441noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730715809151114251.post-26480342758164352652009-08-10T17:48:00.002+08:002009-08-10T17:52:00.935+08:00SMI3 Gallery UpdatesDue to some unavoidable circumstances, we will only be able to start uploading the Gallery entries tonight.

Based on experience, kids 6 yrs old and above can hold their own in these events.<br /><br /><strong><em>Will there be food served?<br /></em></strong>Food is not included in the ticket price. A food concessionaire has been commissioned to provide for all your food and drink needs for the day.<br /><br /><strong><em>What's the difference between a demonstration and a workshop?<br /></em></strong>In a demonstration you get to see how something is made, while, in a workshop you receive a kit so you can do it also. In our effort to bring down ticket prices, we have opted to conduct demonstrations instead of a workshop.<br /><br /><strong><em>What do I need to bring to Scrapfest 7?<br /></em></strong>If you purchased a regular ticket (Ps500), you only need to bring materials and tools for the Scrapfest Challenge. The Challenge Kit already includes majority of the materials you'll need to complete the challenge. However, we suggest that you also bring the following:<br /><ul><li>paper trimmer</li><li>acid-free adhesives</li><li>alphabets for title</li><li>journaling pen</li></ul>We will announce details of the challenge at a later date.<br /><br />If you purchased a Shopping Pass (Ps200), all you need to bring is shopping money.<br /><br /><strong><em>Will credit cards be accepted for payment?<br /></em></strong>Scrappin' Moms does not in any way participate in the sales of the individual sellers. Some of them might have a credit card facility available at the venue but we cannot guarantee this.<br /><br />For other questions and inquiries please email us at <a href="mailto:scrappinmoms@gmail.com">scrappinmoms@gmail.com</a>.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730715809151114251.post-82830059768972371582009-08-07T06:37:00.005+08:002009-08-10T12:12:06.690+08:00SCRAPFEST 7<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sY4O6zXC0AM/SnpxKEp3NHI/AAAAAAAAI7Q/SXdzLnDMGR4/s1600-h/scrapfest7.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 500px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 125px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366726323827324018" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sY4O6zXC0AM/SnpxKEp3NHI/AAAAAAAAI7Q/SXdzLnDMGR4/scrapfest7.jpg" /></a><br /><div>Registration for <strong><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><span style="font-size:130%;">Scrapfest 7</span></span></strong> is now officially open!</div><br />Join us once again for a day of scrapping, shopping and sharing, together with other scrapbooking enthusiasts and suppliers.<br /><div><br /></div><p align="center"><span style="color:#33cc00;"><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong>Date: August 29, 2009<br />Time: 9:00am-5:00pm<br />Place: Makati Parks and Gardens</strong><br /></span></span><div><strong><span style="font-size:130%;color:#cc33cc;">Scrapfest 7</span></strong> features:<br /><ul><li>Shopping from the country's best suppliers of scrapbooking products <li>Scrapfest Challenge<br /><ul><li>Test your mettle at the on-the-spot scrapping challenge<br /><li>Prizes:<br /><ul><li>1st Prize - Ps2500 worth of scrapbooking items<br /><li>2nd Prize - Ps1500 worth of scrapbooking items<br /><li>3rd Prize - Ps1000 worth of scrapbooking items</li></ul><br /><li>Scrappin Moms Idol 3 Grand Finale<br /><ul><li>Watch the Top 10 Finalists battle it out at the on-the-spot final challenge</li></ul><br /><li>Learn new techniques with demonstrations on using texture paste, Pearl-Ex, and others</li></ul></li></ul><br /><div><strong><span style="font-size:130%;color:#33cc00;">TICKETS</span></strong></div><br /><ul><li><strong>Scrapfest 7 ticket - Ps500.00</strong>(same price for adults and children) includes:<br /><ul><li>Scrapfest challenge kit<br /><li>A seat in the cropping area<br /><li>A raffle coupon<br /><li>Discount coupons from sponsors</li></ul><br /><li><strong>Shopping Pass only (no coupons, raffle, etc) - Ps200.00</strong></li></ul><br /><p><span style="font-size:130%;color:#cc33cc;">NOTE: Only ticket holders will be allowed to enter the event.

Love how the pics were arranged and how those labels were placed. The elements were so effective that even without a journaling, I do understand very well the message Bjay wants to convey just by looking at her pics. I also like the white space with those yellow spots. it just gave the the space some texture. You did very well Bjay!!!

Your imagination is the only limitation you'll have.<br />- The mini-album should be no bigger than 8x8 and no smaller than 4x4<br />- Include a write-up on your chosen theme/book and how this inspired your mini album creations<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">#2.</span> The <span style="font-weight: bold;">MINI ALBUM should be AT LEAST 6-pages </span>EXCLUDING the front and back covers.<br />- Creativity and Originality will be a key factor when judging your albums<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">#3.</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Create at least three (3) A.T.C</span> (Altered Trading Cards)<br />- The ATC must be included within the mini album<br />- Be creative in including the ATC within your mini album<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">What is an ATC?</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">An artist trading card (or ATC for short) is a tiny, original piece of art created with the intention of swapping or trading it with another artist, not selling it.
