I assume you are going to change up the list of requirements each month, right? I love how this is getting me to sort through my stash and use things I might not use!

I'm so glad that so many Cherries were able to make use of the list! It was awesome to see each of the elements come together. I hope to be in the group some day! I own no washi, no acetate, no VB, no wood, no stamps and no die cutter, so I was limited -- but that's OK -- you still got my butt movin' and that's what counts! Well, that and beating Leslie.
Smooches, Leslie!

Second, the stash list...other than the acetate....I have all the things and just love how I'm able to pull in more sprinkly bits or washi tape or the deco brads or all of the above to make it COUNT for points. It's fun digging thru my stash. I've actually used more deco brads THIS MONTH than other months in the last couple of years, at least. It's awesome. Can't wait to see the stash list for next month!

Enjoying the competitive part, finding ways to add to my layout for points and like others use items that haven't been touched in sometime! I like having the thread to post my layout and points for my own tracking - having it in one place is helpful.
I can't think of anything to change! So far it's been a blast and excited for next month!
I agree with that. If each team had a thhred with the captain name (So And So's Team Completed LO Thread) something easy to find, so everyone puts their work in the correct spot so things do not get missed.Art_Teacher wrote: ↑Wed Jul 17, 2024 12:02 pmstI am loving it, so far!I do think we just need a thread to save our spots and put all our layouts in one place.

Laura, RE: the items you do not own, have you thought about joining Envies each month? Those would be great items to put on your wishlist, the Envies are fun; receiving goodies from another Cherry that are a surprise is sooo nice!

I am a bit confused still about the point system too, but that's probably just me![]()

I adore this challenge, and if I didn’t already know that I’m gonna be pretty busy at work next month, I’d have volunteered for team captain too.
I enjoy the stash list so much, and digging through my stash, I have several ideas to suggest for next month list, if you’re taking suggestions?
ETA; I forgot to reply to the questions about sharing, and I can see pros and cons for having a ‘save my spot’ thread and a general sharing thread.
I’m keeping track of my points by having a little book, where I write the title and points, and I add it up, when I’ve filled out one page in my notebook. So, I’m happy keeping to the sharing thread, because we get to see each others layouts mixed around the different challenges, and getting inspired.
I can also see the point in having one spot in a thread, that’s only mine, but for me personally, I wouldn’t feel like part of a team. Like, in the bi-monthly challenge, I’m not part of a team, but doing the challenge for myself. I don’t know if that makes sense?
