Hello everyone! It is Sharon (graciesgram) here to bring you some news that should make lots of folks happy.

Finally a daytime Speed Scrap for all our friends around the world who are sleeping during our usual late night parties. We welcome everyone to join in the fun on Sunday, November 8 at 2 p.m. ET. I sure hope this fits in with everyone’s schedule.

We’ll meet in the Chat Room a few minutes before 2 and get acquainted and then right about 2, I will begin giving the instructions for your layouts. Every 10 minutes you’ll get another instruction. At the end of an hour you will get the final one and then have one hour and fifteen minutes to complete your layout and upload it to the gallery and to this site and link them. Be sure to post the link in your Points Tracker.

SEE YOU SUNDAY ! It’s always fun to join in a SUNNY SPEED SCRAP!!!

Hybrid Challenge

Now that it is cold outside, I thought of making a cute little lantern, to make our home cozy. I have made a little template for you, that you can download if you want to, but you can also design your own.

Here is mine made with Tints of Autumn by Scrapidea-timkova:

(I have doubled the template, so I have two laterns on one paper)

And this is what the latern looks like in the dark:

Now come over to our forums and show me yours!  They are pretty easy to make and look so beautiful.

Random Challenge

This time I challenge you to scrap about Traditions.

You may use anything for your page, that is a tradition or something traditional like special clothes or food. Anything that goes with this theme is possible.

Here is my page, I used pictures of the preparation of a traditional Albanian food, that is still made like about a few hundred years ago:
