I'm back in the land of the living! Sorry about last week. I just COULD NOT get it together with kids and work and holidays and ... oh poor pitiful me! I know that I'm the ONLY one who is busy this time of year! ROFL!

But, as promised, here is your brand new challenge. We are using heritage photos (from the 1970's and before) and using them in a "blocked" layout. This will be easy for some of you as it is a very common style. For me ... it was a bit of a challenge as I very rarely do anything in a linear fashion. But I love the end result.

In my example, I used lots of pictures. I know that not everyone has as many pictures so instead of so many pictures, you could just use more squares or rectangles of paper.

Have fun with this one. I sure did! Here is my example: Remembering Merrilla (http://www.scrapartist.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=29515&cat=500&ppuser=1707)

This is a great technique - you can block w/pictures and papers. Will try to do this one.

Hello. My screen name is Makita and I'm new to ScrapArtist. I found the Heritage Challenge via a thread at DigiShopTalk. I've been working on a legacy album for a couple years now and thought this challenge would help me to finish as well as go outside my comfort zone.

I did this LO some time ago and thought it fit well with the challenge for this week.

I'm looking forward to playing along and getting to know you all. :)

I have been looking for a way to use these photos for a while now. Thanks for the challenge.

Sorry guys ... I took a short trip with my husband. These layouts are gorgeous. Thanks so much for playing.

Makita - It is so nice to have you join us! I can't wait to see all of your layouts. However, I could not see the layout you posted. It says "image waiting approval" - I have never seen that before. Would love to see it though!!! :)
