OK Ladies!! How do I get my picture to come up in my profile? It says it's there, but I don't see it:(
Go in to 'edit your avatar' page and make sure the box 'Do not use an avatar' is NOT checked...
My only other suggestion would be to log out and log back in, sometimes that resets your changes.
Hope this helps!

Oh how exciting! I have been so out of touch, so am anxious to get scrapping again.
I love that we get the "Sneak Peaks", really helps to start planning what photos I need to gather. Pork Tenderloin Crock-pot idea: line the pot with seasoning of your choice, thyme, oregano, basil, salt pepper. Rinse, pat dry the pork, roll in the spices. Remove temporarily. Line pot with thinly sliced veggies (I did carrots, onions, celery - in the amounts you are comfortable with of course). Return the pork. Stick some bay leaves around the edges, pour some broth (about 1/2 cup), 2 tbls cooking sherry to the center.
Mine was done in 4 hours on high. I had cooked two pieces of pork. Test with meat thermometer.
Especially good for the family to fix a plate as they wish.

Welcome Sharon!! I've had great fun creating them and getting stuff ready for our weekend.
This is a really fun way to do this Diana! Sneak peeks give us time to pull pictures for possible layouts, I love it. One step for the weekend can be done ahead of time

Well, I am loving the sneak peaks! I just went back and wrote them down
Good idea Sharon - I, too, have done this now.
And thinking about one in particular, I took a "selfie" at the zoo with Tiny Tot this afternoon. She didn't have a happy face, but I looked pretty good! Just not fair. Oh well, still have time to take more or will come up with something for my old ones I guess.

This weekend at the crop I went to, Saturday was "crockpot" day for food. WOW. there were probably 10 to 15 pots full of all sorts of yummy stuff...chili, (baked) apples, sloppy joes, baked beans, caramel for apples and lots of soups.
Lots of fun recipe ideas

yes, thanks! I have photos in a sleeve that might work for each. So at least a start.
Me too....I've been stashing them in a photo box so I'm hoping that I'll have the "hard part" of finding some photos done .... oh wait, is that the hard part? Maybe the scrappin' fairies will be good to me and bring lots of sketch ideas too

I've also marked some faves out of my gallery AND pulled out my sketch books. I hope to be very efficient at this VSBN. There are so many great challenge ideas! I hope to get lots done.
Nov seems to be full of travel time for me so VSBN weekend may be the only weekend I get to scrap this month, eek

Great idea Lela & Diana! Over the years, I've printed all the sketches from the sketch challenge here and several months from pagmaps. I keep them in a binder for quick reference. I'll have to get organized this week and pull the photos and match up some of the sketches. I've got a printout of the sneak peaks, so hopefully I won't be overwhelmed when we start. Any other tips for a first timer???

Ann, First thing to remember is you have all month to finish the challenges. So you get started next weekend and then work on the rest. Next, check back this week. I plan to put up a few of the challenges early. I am terrible about waiting!!!! Looking forward to seeing everyone's pages
* Great idea to have sketches or page ideas. Don't forget your Gallery Favorites, Scraplifts and Pinterest
* The Sneak Peeks will help you pull photo ideas ahead. It will save time during the challenge
* The VSBN Master Challenge Thread is an easy way to see the challenges in sequential order and have links to each of the individual challenge threads
* The Tracking List (posted in the Master Challenge Thread, post #1) makes it easy to print the list of challenges for tracking on completion and upload
* VSBN Inspiration is great fun, esp if you get the pages done during the month for everyone to check out in the gallery, that's always enjoyable.
*"Don't sweat the small stuff". VSBN is for inspiration. We all try to do the challenge as it's stated but if your page isn't exact, don't worry it. It's about having fun together, getting pages done and adding memories to our scrapbooks
Who Else has ideas?
