I first joined the Fisk-a-Teers hoping to learn a little bit about scrapbooking (I never knew what a wonderful journey was in store for me!).  So it’s only natural that I was immediately attracted to the Scrapbooking Challenges.  In fact, I completed every single challenge for the 1st few months after becoming a Fisk-a-Teer and by doing […]

After weeks of hearing about people going to the big scrapbook retailers convention (CHA), we thought Fisk-a-teers staying at home should have a chance to get in on the fun. We have recruited our Fisk-a-teer Nifty 50 and other Fisk-a-teer regulars for over30 hours of challenges, contests and fun. We made sure to […]

I have shared that one of the 1st things that attracted me to the Fiskateer site was the challenges. I found the challenges Fun and yes, challenging. And to be honest, I also loved the potential prizes you could win by entering a challenge. In fact, I was 1st introduced to the beautiful Heidi Grace […]

challenge: tradition

 What inspired me: We took a trip to a local fair a few days ago, and all the usual sights and sounds and smells (and tastes!) were there. I loved every moment from the 4-H kids to the cotton candy to the pony ride. There are certian things I do and see at any fair… […]

NEW CHALLENGE:

I have talked about it before, and I even have done lessons on it. When it comes to scrapbooking- journaling counts. Layouts with just titles, or very minimal story telling are ok, but my scrapbooks are about the content. the memories. the stories. Those are the pages I cherish and re-visit again and again.

challenge check in: 4.09

So, time for another check in! Look at your beginning goal, and look at where you are now. How is it going? better than expected? Not as good? (please do share!)
Here is where I am at- I am able to tell that I’m ’shrinking’ in size finally- after weeks and weeks of seeing nothing. It […]
