Are you a Project Runway Fan? Season 5 started last week and its second episode airs tonight. While catching up on my blog feeds, I clicked on my Pub Calls subscription (funny that i subscribe to this because i never submit a thing!) and saw there is a Project Runway themed scrapbook contest going on over at ScrapInStyletv.com . I linked the message board thread with the rules for the 1st week’s challenge. If you were watching PR last week, you know that it was definitely a challenge! The designers had to purchase items at a grocery store to come up with an innovative outfit. Likewise, SIS scrappers had to use 2 of the following items on an 8.5×11 page:
- coffee filters
- garbage bags
- balloons
- vinyl table cloth
- vinyl shower curtain
- vaccum bag
- mop top
- fly swatter
- paper towel
- cupboard liner (rubber kind)
- bouncy ball
Obviously, this is an art challenge, and not meant to be archival quality. I thought that this would be a fun challenge to try – whether digi-hybrid or full on paper scrapping. They choose 4 winners each week in addition to awarding points that meet weekly criteria and at the end of the PR season, a grand prize is awarded. There have been some wonderful pages submitted for the challenge. Here are two of my favorites that I found today:
Check it out, scrappers! “make it work!”

I have a friend at the office who always says, Tim Gunn style, “Make it work.” At first, I was confused and said, “Why are you speaking like that??” Then someone explained the whole thing to me.
