Speed Scrap

[hobbes130]

Great ideas Andrea and Melissa

I would be happy to have a go at making design elements if I got some instruction lol!

Melissa I thought the speed scrap would be mainly digitial but obviously don;' want to exclude our paper scrappers either.

I am totally interested in a speed scrap and a collaboration challenge as well. Weekdays during the day is better for me and on weekends evenings would be better. But whatever is decided I will try to participate whenever I can!

I would love to Speed Scrap here too! I'm a late night scrapper (after 8-9pm CT) on both weeknight and weekends, but I try to get in to Speed Scraps anytime my work schedule allows! I'm getting excited already - can't wait!

Well it seems like in principle everyone is up for the idea of a speedscrap

I am going to put a date out there and keep my fingers crossed that quite a few of you can make it

I am propsing to host the first Mouse Scrappers Speed Scrap on

Monday 3rd May at 7pm GMT 2pm ET.

I will open the speed scrap at 6pm GMT 1pm ET for signing up and chatting

I will post 5 instructions at the folllowing times
7.00pm GMT 2.00pm ET
7.15pm GMT 2.15pm ET
7.30pm GMT 2.30pm ET
7.45pm GMT 2.45pm ET
8.00pm GMT 3.00pm ET

There will then be 4 hours for finishing up and posting your layout to the gallery and the relevant thread.

For the scrappers that are not able to make the speedscrap they could just treat this as a weekly challenge and join in at their leisure.

I will try and sort out a participation prize for everyone that joins in, I know a lovely designer I can ask

How does that sound to everyone? Let me know your thoughts and availablitly for this date

Sounds like fun! The only thing is WE HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL MAY 3rd!

That'll be like having to wait until Christmas for a little kid!

Here's the times for those of you on the west coast of the US:

10AM - open speed scrap for sign up and chatting

Instructions at these times:
11:00am
11:15am
11:30am
11:45am
12 noon

Then have until 4pm to finish. (That's really generous - most I've participated in only give you an hour to finish after last instruction given.)

Just put it on my calender so I can be here!

[PrincessTiff]

I haven't tried one of these before but sounds fun!

[gillscott]

sounds fun , i aim to be there

[Kim]

This sounds so fun, I will try to be there.

Since I am a substitute teacher I never know until the morning of that day if I will be working or not. This is one day I will hope not to get the call to work!

I have a few takers. So relieved that I am not going to be here on my own

Teri for sorting out the West coast times for those that need them. Sorry we have to wait until the 3rd May I thought I would give people time to notice the thread and put it on their calendars. I went with the 4 hours finishing up time because I didn't want any time zone to feel excluded and by giving more time hopefully more people will be able to fit it in. It also gives time for the paper scrappers among us to give it a go too if they want too

Ok i've never done one of these before but i'm up for it! 7pm UK time is good for me as i'll be done with work and I'll have my page done before Glee starts. Hehe. I love that show!!
