Fall Challenge for December - Instructors ONLY

Well, I am rested now but not quite back to normal..do ya think I ever will be? LOL

Here is your December challenge and REMEMBER - there will be a TWIST to this month's challenge and posted ONLY when everyone has received their christmas cards. Please let know when you receive your card please.

100 points - on your list of club members everyone sent me, some members were not registered and some do not have computers. In order to receive these points and for the ones who have computers - you must get them to register - send me their name and username. For the ones that don't have a computer - I will exclude them. You MUST have all your members registered in order to get these points. For the Instructors who have all their members registered - you have already earned these points. All members in each club MUST be registered by December 31 - NO LATER!!

50 points per product purchased - I will be uploading a layout in the December Challenge layout gallery. Once I have uploaded - it will be your job to try and identify what products I purchased at Robin and Yvonne's store. I will be sending the list of purchase to Sarah for proof. There will be 10 things I purchased and you can earn 50 points for each correct answer up to a max of 500 points.

700 points - I will be using 7 techniques from 2008. Identify each technique for the points - 100 points for each correct guess up to a max of 700 points.

50 points - this is the TWIST and I will not post until all the cards have been received - then I will tell you what you need to do.

500 points - On December 25th you will need to POST a Merry Christmas wish to all your scrapbooking friends and must be posted to the "SCRAP CHAT" under the main post "MERRY CHRISTMAS". If you are not going to be home for Christmas, you will need to ask the help of your scrap pal to post your message. If she is not going to be home, you must send me your "wish" and I will post for you on December 25th...BUT only if you have exhausted all the above attempts. If you do not celebrate Christmas, then please post some kind of message for your friends.

1,000 points - You have until December 31st to post (non-related crafting chat) your most expensive scrapbooking item YOU purchased this year 2008 and promise you will never buy anything so expensive again...LOL... Please post the cost of the item and where you bought it. If you received an expensive item as a gift - it doesn't count, but you can post for our curiosity...LOL

THIS WILL COMPLETE THE FALL CHALLENGE FOR 2008. I am hoping the twist will be a tie breaker for those of you who are tied for points. In the event it doesn't, then I will discuss with Sarah a tie breaker and announce the 1st week of January what the "quick" tie-breaking challenge will be.

All posts must be in the Non related crafting chat and I will create "topic" areas, i.e., I will post "Product Purchased" and "Layout techniques used". You can post your answers under these headings.

Points for everyone will be done in a word document and will be emailed out to everyone for verification. Once I have received verification the points are correct we will declare a "professional challenger" title!!

Good Luck everyone.

STAY TUNED FOR THE "CLUB MEMBERS" CHALLENGE BEGINNING JANUARY 2009 - YOU CAN EARN POINTS OFF YOUR MEMBERS....JUST BY MAKING SURE THEY PARTICIPATE!
