Found a challenge on the honest scrapper blog (well I made it into a challenge for me) that I took on for the Wakatipu Scrap 'n' Chat last night. The other four layouts are in the next post down!
The challenge was to put the following in a box & do your next five layouts from it only (made for light travelling to a crop too - apart from taking my sewing machine):
* 15 pieces of cardstock
*20 pieces of patterned paper
*a few alphas
*a dozen embellishments (paint, buttons, thread & pre-fab ones)
Had fun doing this & I think it will be my 'crop thing' from now on in - no more getting annoyed that i didn't bring this one thing that I desperately needed....
any way thanks for visiting!

love that clean and simple layout. I am doing that challenge too and found it wonderful for helping me scrapping again.
I really enjoyed looking at your Lo's. The gardening one so femine and the brussel sprout one is a hoot, love simplicity too! Thanks for sharing that 'honest challenge'.Will try follow that when I go to the next crop. And thanks for welcoming me to blogworld!
what a fab layout. very stylish. well done.
mmm..all lovely Lara...where do you find the time!! mum x
Now *that* is my kinda challenge ... limited resources. I often feel as if I have too much choice and I can't start unless I force myself to use *just* the material on my desk or in a *just arrived* box of goodies.
Beautiful work Lara.
This is so effective! Awesome work Lara. BTW where do you find the time .. LOL!
great challenge and GREAT LO!!!
glanced through your blog and - WOW - great LOs girlie!!!!!
WOW! Great layout. Love it. So many photos.

Loving all your Los atm Lara! Beautiful work. I have done this myself at the last couple of crops plus the sewing machine too...everyone laughs at me but I dont care!
Gorgeous layouts Lara :) Don't know how I would go on the box challenge, I think I would always need just something else, although if your on a crop that would sure make it eaiser. :)
WoW Just love your style. Love looking at your layouts!
Enjoy your week,

Hi Lara - sounds like a great challenge and one I should take up. Always struggle scrapbooking at a crop cause I never have what I want to use. LO looks sensational too.
What a great idea Lara - one I desparately need to take onboard - maybe I would actually get to crops if I didn't have to take so much stuff LoL!
