Geri (Atria's Creations) hosts a couple of fun and unusual challenges at Ivy Scraps each month and her paper challenge is always a great time. She provides you some paper and you have to create an element, layout, or whatever makes you happy. This month Gloria made this spooktacular journal tag and you can direct download this from the Challenge Thread, along with whatever others may decide to share with you.

WordArt FREEBIE

Nelleke, who everyone just LOVES, hosts a very different WordArt challenge each month at IVY SCRAPS, in that she gives you "words" to scrap a layout with in the form of a quote, poem, song, etc. Gloria has been making a WordArt Element to share with all participants each month using some of the words from Nelleke's challenge...just for the fun of it (it doesn't earn participation points, but that's ok, she has so much fun and earns more than she needs each month). So if you like the WordArt and want to download it FREE, or just want to see what Nelleke and the girls are up to....check out this Challenge HERE.

It's October already and this Gorgeous Houston weather has me in the mood to be very generous with my friends. November is our Third Birthday at IVY SCRAPS, and you won't believe what all we have in store for you. Mark your calendar and join in on the fun.

But until then...

I'd love to see you at my Ivy Scraps Store and Challenges....we have so much FUN!!

These are my contributions to the October MINI PIXEL kits...always $1.

 
Here is a sample of even more of the $1 October Mini Pixel kits at IVY SCRAPS
 

Along with many FUN challenges, Gloria hosts an Ivy Shapes Challenge where she gives you a shape and you create whatever makes you happy...a layout, element, paper, overlay, etc. You will be amazed at how creative our ladies are...and you don't have to be a designer to enjoy this challenge. SCRAPPERS WELCOME! You can share it with other members, or just show it off, your choice. We know you will have a Great Time with us. JOIN IN HERE

Gloria participates in the challengs too and made these very cool for you, come on over and see what others are creating and sharing.
 
 
She also hosts the Changing Ivy Challenge where she provides you with a unique template and you use it however you like, twist it, turn it, remove pieces, add pieces....just make it your own. There are psd and png files so everyone can play along.


And, if you have a hard time using templates, Gloria also includes a QP for your easy use. We just want you to play, and whatever is your poison, we are happy to oblige.


Ok, so you get a FREE template a FREE QP, but that's just not enough. For partcipating you will also receive a FREE CU Shape each month. This is October's shape...in psd and png formats.
