Challenge #11~Don't Judge a Book by its Cover

We have always been told not to judge a book by its cover… but of course people do it all of the time. How often have you seen a book & based on the look of its cover been moved to open it up & perhaps even buy it? Well, websites are also often judged by their covers or more specifically their headers.

So we here at Scrapdragons have decided that it is time for a new look here. One that represents who we are & what we do here.

And this is where you come in…
We are in need of some new header art. We could design one ourselves, but wouldn’t it be more fun to have a contest?


Here are our only requirements…the rest is up to you...

~ Header dimensions should be compatible with the blogger format
~ The header art should in some way reflect the theme of this blog & include the “Scrapdragon” name

The entries need not be created digitally. Well photographed paper creations will be considered as well.


Here’s what is in it for you...
We will choose a header from all the submissions we receive. That winner will receive a $20 gift certificate provided by Gabi & Laura from an online store of your choice. We will post links here in this thread for all entries. The winner will also have a link on our sidebar for as long as we use their winning header.

So, please feel free to link to this post & help spread the news about our contest. Please post here in the comments & email us your entries.

We hope that you choose to participate…we can hardly wait to see what you come up with.

Deadline for submissions is midnight EST March 1, 2008!

**Scrapdragon Creative Team members are eligible for this contest**

And the winner is....

for challenge #10....



Peg with this faboulous layout!!




(Peg please email us your mailing address so we can get your prize out to you.)

Again we have been thirlled with all of the entries. It is always difficult choosing just one.

Check back this afternoon for a new kind of contest here. It will run all month long. We will also be posting a new challenge on the 15th...so keep checking back!!

Challenge #10

Fashion Faux Pas!?!?!

For this challenge we would like you to scrap a page, any size, any style about a Fashion Faux Pas. It could be some crazy or wacky fashion choice you made, maybe something silly one of your kids loves to wear, or maybe it is just on old picture of you with a bad 80's hair cut. As always we love to leave these up to interpretation. So do not in any way feel limited. Make this challenge yours & go for it!!


Here are some layouts by our Creative Team:


Laura's



Lauren's



Niki's



All layouts must be posted in the comments of this thread by midnight EST January 30th.



**Remember you have until midnight EST tonight, January 15th, to post your entries for


Challenge #9...


so get them in! Winners will be posted sometime next week so be sure to check back.**


Also...completely off topic....Laura's daughter Rachel is asking for some help. It seems the silly sock creature she created is without a name. OH NO!! Her poor little sock friend has been a bit depressed and is requesting that he be given a name immediately!


If you can help, Scrapdragons & Rachel would greatly appreciate it!


Just go HERE to offer your opinion! Thanks!!

Challenge #9

Music is a form of art & the lyrics are often like poetry, so using lyrics in scrapbook layouts really makes sense.

Music often brings us memories.
You hear a song & can be transported back via your memories to the high school prom, or the day you were married, or the first time your heart was broken.

Sometimes a song expresses exactly what you feel in your heart. Sometimes a line from a song can just sum up the mood of a moment.

So here is our challenge to you...

Create a scrapbook layout any size...that incorporates music in some way.

You can use a single verse, the entire song or even just the title.

You can even just journal about music, do a page about your ipod, or maybe an instrument you play.

The key is to be creative & have fun with it!!!
