challenge changes???

oceanbreezes423 · Fri Mar 02, 2012 10:09 am

Does anyone know what the plans are for monthly challenges? If they are not doing them, I would be willing to take one over just to keep it going. The points are always nice, but I like the motivation it gives me. I just thought if they were a thing of the past, if a few of us took one, we could continue with them. Any thoughts, or does anyone know what they plan? I know the guest ct has to do some, but are those actually what were the "old" challenges?

Susan...I have no idea whats going on with the challenges. As GCT, I will be offering at least 4 challenges, depending on participants and whether or not there aren't more challenges offered by ACOT. I will be posting my 1st challenge here in a bit.

I don't think they are changing. I can't remember which post it was in the past, but someone said from ACOT that they were continuing them. I hope I'm right because they motivate me too. I just love doing them each month...they get me to think outside of the box.

I would like to see them continue too....even if I don't end up doing a layout that fits the challenge, they still get me thinking in a different direction!

fyi, I was not asked to continue with mine.

that is how I work ,too. I do not usually enter the challenges, but I use them as a jumping point for my own creativity.

Yeah, I hope they continue as well. I wouldn't mind doing one and even offering a prize from my own stash if ACOT doesn't continue them.

I like them for the motivation too... I have searched other sites for motivation', 'mojo' or whatnot, and nothing else comes even close to this place

I hope something will be up soon!

I've been wondering about this as well - as in, does ACOT care if some of us post our own monthly challenges, with or without prizes? I know I would participate in some even if there aren't prizes, and I have lots of ideas for challenges I could post. I love the inspiration, structure, and, well, challenge! of having lots to choose from.

I'd be glad to do this too! I certainly have tons of stash with which I can choose a prize, if someone likes getting a goodie bag!

Count me in as being willing to post some!!

I create 5 or 6 each month for my crops anyway, I could just post those.

Great idea! We encourage anyone wanting to post a challenge or two to go right ahead! This is your board and we'd love for you to have fun with it. Our Guest of the month will be continuing to post challenges, but we'd love to see even more.

Heidi - are you saying that there won't be the challenges here that we are used to? Wow... so many changes.
