What my challenge will be?
The first hint was: “What’s old becomes new again!”
I’ll give you one more hint.
The second hint: The focus is on YOU!
Post your guess.

Scrap about yourself and ???

Scrapping about ourselves using products in our stash that are "old"??

That's exactly what my guess is.

If it is old stash, then I should be set. I have stuff back to the early 2000's. Old Chatterbox, CTMH, Basic Grey, MME and Heidi Grace. I really need to use it up and I have been. It's just that I have too much of it. I have even given away 100's of pattern papers to a good friend that is scrapping. Can't wait to see what this challenge is going to be. Sounds exciting.

I think that your challenge is to create a layout about yourself at a younger age.

I was hoping it was OLD stash cause I've got it! But focus on US? Hmm, I am not my favorite subject and there's no way in H@## I can become NEW again no matter how hard I wish, LOL!

[beachlover]

how your scrappy style has changed - redo an old LO?

[ernstem]

maybe a reflection of what we will be like in the future? or a LO to our "younger" self?

Ooohhhh...LOVE that idea Ann! I've actually done that for a couple of photos.

[JillinIN]

These are all fantastic guesses and they are giving me ideas!!
No one has guessed it exactly yet so keep guessing!!

I hope you're having as much fun as I am.

Oh Debbie that's funny. I've been wishing pretty hard with no luck.

I love this idea. I'll definately use it for a "twist" on one of my challenges.

[beachlover]

a LO featuring yourself using an older technique (will it be our choice or yours?)

[DolphinSoul]

I'm definitely going along with everyone else of using old products in a new way and about ourselves. Also thinking graduation just are around so maybe we reflect on how time has passed, etc.

There was a November Crop challenge like that once on here, circa 2009 when I first joined. it was great, It's in my gallery I think. I loved that challenge.



I'm thinking it might be what others have said, use old stash, and scrap pics about us..... could be a makeover page too tho, about a makeover for us? hmm...

I agree, old stash challenge would be good. But a challenge about myself. hmmm not so sure about that, now if it was scrap your opinion about something - I could certainly do well with that!

Now I disagree. I don't think we scrap about ourselves enough. We tell everyone else's stories.... why shouldn't we tell our own? My mom died when I was a teenager. If she had scrapped about herself, I would know her better! I am trying to do this more for my kids...they might want that in the future!

This is a very good point! But the problem I run in to, is that no one in my family is as passionate about taking pictures of me or anything, as much as I love to take pics. SO I don't often have many pics with me in them, and if I ask them to take some, they rarely come out - I asked hubs to take a couple pics of me when we went camping for that very reason, but they were around the fire in the dark and you could just see a blob. So yeah. I do have SOME pics tho, but by and large I have more pics of others simply because I'm the photographer and others don't think to take pics of me. But I think it's a great thing to add the memories and the journaling that tells the story, for reasons you have pointed out. I scrap but don't often do the journaling, and I'm realizing that just a few years erases those stories from ourselves, much less having our kids know about them.

scraplift an old layout with the subject being ourselves?
