Are you READY to put your Scrappin' Skills to the Test?! Do you think you're up for the Challenge?
It's TIME for the MAIN EVENT!
It's that time of year and if you've hung around with me for any length of time at all, you would know I'm a "Playoff Sports Junkie" ... if it's the playoffs, I'm usually watching . It can be NBA Basketball, NHL Hockey, Nascar Racing, NFL Football or even "March Madness - NCAA Playoff Basketball! There's just something about the competitiveness and having the game "on the line" for the Championship.
So For March VSBN -- It's our Very Own
****** SCRAPPY MARCH MADNESS ******
----- Here's How to Play ----
There will be 3 Threads listing the Challenges according to points.
There will be 1 Thread for ALL PAGE LINK Posts and POINT TOTALS.
There will be 1 Thread for FOULS CALLED
Each Challenge Item added to layout is Worth Points -- 1, 2 or 3 Points
When you're finished with your layout, you will add up the points for the Challenge Items you used and post your Layout.
*** Let me give you an example, let's say you do a layout and you've done the following:
- Used Stickers (1 pt) - Used Printed Paper for Background (1pt) - Scrapped a photo of your pet (1pt) - Used the Sketch Challenge for your page (2pt) - Dry embossed a background layer (2pt) - Finished in under 2 hours (2pt) - Added more than 50 words Journaling (3pt) ---- Your Point Total for this layout would be 12
Each Scrapper will post their completed layout LINK in the PAGE LINK Thread with their Points Total
The more layouts (pages) you do, the more points you gain.
To Count for Scrappy March Madness, the layout must be posted between 12noon EST / 1100 CST / 1000 MST / 0900 PST, Friday March 1 through 12noon EST / 1100 CST / 1000 MST / 0900 PST, Friday March 29
You can use the same Challenge Items over on additional Pages
HERE'S the TWIST ...
Each Scrapper will have (3) Fouls to call during our Scrappy March Madness.
The FOUL THREAD will be OPEN Starting Monday, Feb 25! The Page completed for the FOUL can be posted when completed.
A Scrapper can call a FOUL on ANY Scrappers Listed in the Foul Thread playing along.
A Scrapper can call more than one FOUL on another scrapper (LOL!)
A Scrapper can have FOULS from more than one Scrapper
When a "FOUL" is called, the Scrapper calling the Foul will Post a page another Scrapper has to Scraplift
****Let me give you an Example, let's say Joyce (SCS AnniePanda) calls a "FOUL" on me. She would post in the Foul Thread, "I call a "FOUL" on Lela (SCS - Lmn). She would post the layout (page) she selected for me to Scraplift. I would have to complete that Scraplift of something from the Page to get the additional 10 points
Scrappers completing the "FOUL" (Scraplift Page) get an Automatic 10 points added to their page totals
Fouls will only be available to use until 7pm, Friday March 15.
HERE'S ANOTHER TWIST
During the week of March 11 and March 18, the point options will change on Monday morning at 1000 EST
VSBN March Madness KEYWORD:VSBN19mar
So, clean off your Desks, Pull out Your Sketches and get Ready to put your Scrappin' Skills on the Line for the SCS Scrappy March Madness
THERE WILL BE A (small) PRIZE FOR THE WINNER!

I have a question/request with the 5 enamel dots/rhinestone gem. Can we expand this to include brads, eyelets, buttons, and maybe even washi tape? All of these I have more of than I would like to admit. I only have one or two sheets of enamel dots/gems that were gifted to me. Just thinking they are close to the same thing and might be in most others stash as well. Lela, what do you think?

I get cha...forgot you had Round 2 surprise! Looking forward to it!
If nothing else, you got me to clean out my scrap bin!!! HA!!!
Thanks for all your hard work!
Lela, are you still planning on changing the point totals soon? Above says week of March 11 and March 18th...?
I'm sure enjoying all the work you have done for this. Love seeing how everyone is scrapping up a storm. I know I'm getting more done than normal...scrapping that is...housework would be a big NO! (hee-hee)
Thanks for the updated lists. You have some fun additions here. I think I can nail that washi tape one since I am seriously trying to decrease that stash. Funny thing is most of them were gifts from someone else. Now to find where I put those doilies, vellum, and I know I have some mesh stuff somewhere. Love how you push us out of our boxes.
