Lisa (kelseyll) here to bring you another prompt for our January Challenges!  Hope your ScrapMatters Bingo card is getting nice and FULL!!

16. Be Inspired: Use the image below to inspire a LO!

I was inspired by the blocked look with pops of colors and the directional lines so here is what I came up with:

Here is one that Fonnetta made and I really like how she used a double line dashed border to set things apart!

And here is one from Kayla (keepscrappin) with a different way to make those visual lines:

There are so many fun kits in the store to use for this challenge and since there are no color requirements ANY of them will work!!! =)   For a full list of the January 2012 Bingo challenges head over to the forum here and if you want all the details about our challenge system including the prizes click here!  See you in the gallery!

Kairyn here with today’s challenge! One of my favorites:

14. Extreme Makeover – re-scrap one of your older layouts.

I know some people feel that they don’t want to go back and redo a layout they’ve already finished. Instead, they wish to keep moving forward. I understand that, and when I was new to scrapping, I felt the same way! However, my scrapping style has evolved over the few years I’ve been a digi-scrapper, and since I print my books chronologically, there are many pages I’ve created, but never printed… if it hasn’t been printed it’s fair game for a makeover! lol

I chose this one to make over:

I like the blend, the journaling, the clusters… but I was never happy with how dark and noisy the photos are. Now that I know a little more about fixing those problem photos… I came up with this using New Beginnings by Diana’s Creations and Minimal Style Vol. 1 Templates by Memory Clips.

I hope I’ve encouraged you to try a makeover – you might be impressed with just how fun this challenge can be! Until next time… ta-ta!

Jami here bringing you Today’s challenge…

13. Monthly Matters: Show us a calendar topper you’ve created.

I couldn’t decide which page I liked better, so I have 2 versions for my Jan 2013 calendar, I used Best Wishes by Diana’s Creations…

Fonnetta made this great sample for us using Jeanine DeOre’s Poppie Collection and Add-on and Haynay Designs Year in the Life: Alpha:

And Kayla created this one with Snowy Tales by Down This Road Designs… even though it doesn’t have a month on it, it’s still perfect for a winter month… January, February or even December, right?

This challenge was a life-saver for me last year, so I hope you start your 2013 calendar with me! Special thanks to Kairyn for helping me with this posting whilst I had NO power!!!!

Kairyn here with today’s challenge!

6. Let’s get hybrid- create a checklist of some sort to help you get organized and show us your handiwork.
Stolen Moments has a helping hands kit that would be great for a chore chart.

She also has some ready made printables available.

And Simply J has some lists. These would be cute dressed up. They are 5.5×8.5 so they would fit on a altered clipboard or other background and look really cute.

She has calendars, home reference centers, and holiday planners available as well!

Diana’s Creations – Fruitmania would be fun for a grocery list or menu planning list.

I used Helping Hands by Stolen Moments and created this small chart just for me. I plan to print it 6×6 and stick it on a kitchen cupboard door to keep me organized and FLYing!

I can’t wait to see what you create!   For a full list of the January 2012 Bingo challenges head over to the forum here and if you want all the details about our challenge system including the prizes click here!  See you in the gallery!
