We finished our first year with an amazing array of entries in our August Challenge.  If you haven't reviewed those, you're in for a treat!  This month our designers have worked hard to bring you a great new selection of mini album tutorials.  Without further ado...



Hop on over to Art-From-The-Heart to see what I'm up to for our Blogaversary post and a free PDF on how to use magnets.

This is our Blogaversary! Today it is all about bright colors on my blog :) Please see THIS POST for more pictures of my notebooks and a tutorial on cover coloring with alcohol inks.

With so much excitement with all this celebrating and hopping, I was in need of something calm and soothing, so I created a very gentle journal.  Hop over to Words and Pictures to find out the other reason I was in need of these lovely calming neutrals.


Inna

Hello!  I did something interesting and recorded a video tutorial for you.  You need to go to my blog to find out what kind of work I prepared for you ;))




I'm sharing a quick and easy cardboard junk journal tutorial for you gelli plate lovers.  Take a look at SewPaperPaint.



We would like to take a moment to say thank you to our DT member Astrid for being a part of our first year.  Astrid has made the tough decision to step down from our team.  We wish her the very best in the future!  Make sure to follow Astrid's blog to keep up with her other creative pursuits.  Thank you so much for making our first year memorable Astrid!  <3

I hope these peeks have sparked your imagination and you will pay the design team blogs a visit plus play along with our challenge, which ends at 11:55 pm EST on September 30.  Join us on September 7 for our August winners announcement.


Our challenge follows a few simple rules:
Any Handmade Book Goes.  Enter any form of handmade mini albums, scrapbooks, journals and book arts.  Our focus is on completed works, so no layouts or journal spreads that are not part of a complete handmade book project.  You do not have to provide a tutorial, but we wish you would.  Feel free to use one of the DT tutorials to make your project and give proper credit where due.  No back linking allowed.  You must add our badge to your post and link to our challenge to be eligible to win the prize.  Combine with any other challenges as applicable.  Please limit to entering 3 (three) handmade books per month in our challenge.  Permalinks only and no back linking.  Share the love by visiting and commenting on other entries.  Please become a follower.  That's it - have fun!
