Sponsor Giveaways | The Mother Load, Summer Card Camp 2011

GIVEAWAY | One person will receive a spot in Lain Ehmann's upcoming 13-week online class at Big Picture Classes: The Mother LOAD: A Scrapbook Marathon

SPECIAL OFFER | In addition to receive $20 off of The Mother LOAD use code: load2011

Are you a marathon scrapbooker? Do you want to be? As crazy as it may sound, scrapbookers have a lot in common with runners. Both can run into the same problems – lack of time, isolation, a routine that has become more of a drudgery than a help. The good news? You can easily overcome these obstacles.

No, Lain won’t make you run 26.2 miles in just a few hours – but she will challenge you to scrapbook 26 layouts in 26 days! Through The Mother LOAD - A Scrapbook Marathon, part of the 4Experts series for 2011, Lain will show you how committing to making scrapbooking a priority in your life will help you:


  • Scrapbook faster

  • Love your pages more

  • Actually USE your stash

  • Connect with what you love best about this hobby of ours


The first two months of class will be spent on “basic training” to increase your stamina, refine your process, and get you mentally and physically ready for the ultimate challenge: creating a layout a day for the first 26 days of September. After you cross the finish line, there will be time for reflection – and celebration!

For more information, and to register, please visit The Mother LOAD.

    Thanks for the opportunity to win this class. I was so inspired by your sharing of the T.V. free summer that you are having. What a great idea. It actually inspired me to shut of the T.V. more and refocus on what I had early been wanting to do...spend a week free of T.V. or Computer and just spend quality time as a family.
    Thanks Ali, for being a constant source of inspiration.

    Actually what inspired me this week was on your site. I absolutely love, love, love the June travel stamp set. It's so important to me to travel with my family so that my kids can see so much of this country. Which when I first saw the stamps I thought that I'd primarily use them for scrapbooking our trips. But then I saw your blog and I see so many more possbilities to be able to use them on just the day to day adventures in our life.

    Both giveaways are fabulous but I'd love to win a spot in the summer card class.

    This is kind of silly, but walgreens had 40% off pics. That inspired me to get all my pics for project life ordered!

    Found some old supplies that I forgot about and that inspired me to shop my stash and use it, instead of buying more stuff!

    I have been inspired by the pluck and tender nature of my 5-year-old grandson who broke his leg three weeks ago and will need to be in a cast all summer.

    I was so inspired by a pink birdcage overlay from Hambly I spotted this week.

    I'm not sure what to do with it, but I could feel all the creative juices start flowing!
