Elisha Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 You may have noticed the changes in the chat schedule lately. We are in the process of streamlining the chats - and we did not schedule an ATC chat this month. However, we will be continuing the challenges!!! This is a great idea for a series, and I've been enjoying getting to know you with The Year I Was Born. Let's continue that with: Where I'm From I'm not necessarily looking for where you live now, but you can interpret it how you like - where you were born, where you grew up, your hometown. I'm looking for your roots. And you can certainly make more than one! For example, for me, the place I was born is not the same place that I consider my hometown. In fact, I kind of have two hometowns. I could do 3, or more! I lived in lots of places as a kid. Maybe I could do a roadmap ATC! This time, I will be collecting the ATCs and sending them out to you. You have a month to complete the challenge and you can do as many as you like. Cards are due Wednesday, March 7. Post your ATC in the ATC Challenge & Swap gallery. Then email a full resolution to me at scrapgirl.elisha@gmail.com. I will post a new challenge on March 8. And if you participate - be prepared to receive a little bonus in your inbox along with all the ATCs!

Florida granny Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Sounds like a fun topic, Elisha. I'm in! I understand things change, but I'm going to miss the ATC chat. It was how I first got to know some of my fellow scrapgirls and it was always my favorite. But this new monthly challenge will be fun, too, and I love making and receiving ATCs.

lorac Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 You can count me in, Elisha. I love these ATC Crops. I know I can come up with a few cards for this. I moved to a new area in New York and there is lots of new, and old, places to explore here in Yonkers, which is part of Westchester County.

AnnBK Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I have not done even one yet! Sara, I can't even figure out what to do! I really don't know what to answer to "where are you f rom". I suppose it doesn't really matter, does it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Arell Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I have not done even one yet! Sara, I can't even figure out what to do! I really don't know what to answer to "where are you f rom". I suppose it doesn't really matter, does it? I know Ann! I can't figure it out either - I am "from" so many places so I think I'm just going to choose one of my favorite places I've lived and use that -my brain isn't processing tonight!

Elisha Posted February 4, 2012 Author Share Posted February 4, 2012 So do you cower at the though of someone asking you where you're from? Does it take at least 20 minutes to answer the question? lol - me too! I consider myself as having three "where I'm from" and I can't decide myself if I want to do! 3 cards or one card! I trust you'll find the artist in yourself and get creative with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elizabeth99 Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Definitely count me in for this one! I love this month's theme. Fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Arell Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 My WHERE I'M FROM is right here - it's not at all a fancy layout - but I couldn't even begin to define where I'm from anymore - we've lived so many different places and I've left my heart in every one of them - but there's a little piece of everywhere I've lived on this bookshelf - and that's me!

AnnBK Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Well, I'm still stumped by this one...but I'll continue to ponder. Somedays I hardly know where I am, much less where I came from! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
