Hey ladies (and gents, if there be any)! It’s time for our weekly challenge and I’m thrilled to be bringing it to you!

I don’t know about you (although I have my suspicions!), but I have a little memory drawer (ok, a rather LARGE drawer) filled with things that I’ve wanted to keep, but that I haven’t done anything with yet. I have cards, my kid’s school work, drawings and paintings from the kids, ticket stubs, wrist bands from concerts, and the list goes on and on and on! Well, you get the idea. This week I’d like to challenge you to dig through your stash and pull out two things to include on a page. Yes, it’s true, I want you to DO something with that stuff!

It’s always so much fun to look back and SEE the things we cherish, but if they’re stuck in a drawer, a folder, a box or under the bed, who’s going to see them? Let’s make an effort to pull them out and show them off! So here are the ground rules:

1. You must use at least 2 items, but they can all be similar, as shown below.
2. There must be at least 1 photograph on your page.

That’s it! Can you believe it? How simple! You can do this! Just put some thought and creativity behind your selection and I promise you’ll be THRILLED with the results!

Here are some layouts from our fabulous team to get the juices flowing:

First, we have a wonderful layout from Melanie. I love that she took photos of her extra items to include. This is perfect for those of you without scanners! Isn’t that drawing the cutest thing!?

Our next layout comes from Erica. I love her use of this kit!

The next two come from the FAB-U-LOUS woman, Brittney, of Britt-ish Designs. These layouts were created with her brand new kit “Dreams Do Come True” (which you can find in our shop!!).

Although this second LO is amazing (of course!), please keep in mind that in order to be submitted into the drawing (for a coolio prize) that your LO must contain at least 1 photo… Brittney just went the extra mile and submitted two layouts to help get some ideas flowing!

And this last layout was my take on the challenge:

To enter the challenge, post your layout in the Scrapmatters.com gallery and make sure to link it to the Tuesday Challenge under Forums. At the end of the week we’ll be selecting 2 winners of $5 gift certificates to the shop, one randomly selected and one specially chosen for outstanding effort in the creativity department. Who wouldn’t want some free cashola?! So go! Get started and don’t get sucked into the void that is that memorabilia drawer! Good luck all!
