ACOT Message Board

Counting down the days - hours - minutes to NSD here at the greatest scrapping place on earth!   This week will be hard to stay focused on work but I will muddle through.  In the meantime, I think I'll sprinkle some hints along the way for my NSD challenge and you just might find some cherries be sprinkled, too!.

HINT #1 - it's all in the name
HINT #2 - we hate to do it but it's necessary.  Our mother's told us we had to do it.  This time - I am encouraging you NOT to do it.
HINT #3 - Size matters
HINT #4 - some say there is safety in numbers
HINT # 5:  Punch it, shred it, cut it, tear it.  As long as you don't try to wear it.

 

I stink at guessing things..LOL

Uh....I'll check back later to see what others are guessing 

Scrap your name?

Maybe it's a recipe based on our first name? Or yours?

A recipe challenge using your ACOT name.   

recipe based on the words in National Scrapbooking Day?????????????????

I'm not a good guesser either... how about something to do with  ACOT's name ?

maybe the name of a manufacturer?
 

I'm guessing some sort of BOM challenge about our name 

Sorry for those of you too young to remember this song but it was the first thing I thought of:

The name game!Shirley!
Shirley, Shirley bo Birley Bonana fanna fo Firley
Fee fy mo Mirley, Shirley!Lincoln!
Lincoln, Lincoln bo Bincoln Bonana fanna fo Fincoln
Fee fy mo Mincoln, Lincoln!Come on everybody!
I say now let's play a game
I betcha I can make a rhyme out of anybody's name
The first letter of the name, I treat it like it wasn't there
But a B or an F or an M will appear
And then I say bo add a B then I say the name and Bonana fanna and a
fo
And then I say the name again with an F very plain
and a fee fy and a mo
And then I say the name again with an M this time
and there isn't any name that I can't rhyme

 Thats all fine and dandy unless your name is CHUCK!

How about scrapping our own name in an acrostic journaling or title!!!  ooooo....that would be a fun challenge!  I love acrostics.  First one was fun the second a breeze....I really need to do this technique a little more often!
