Check This Out
OK - we are entering the Melissa Frances Altered Bra contest at CHA this weekend. Here is one of our creations. We figured everyone would be going "pink" so we decided to play off the "affair" in our store name and created this masterpiece (although, the picture doesn't do it justice). We must send a big THANK YOU to The Bra Specialist in Sugar Land for donating the bustier (it's French and I don't know if this spelling is correct) for our creation.
So now that you have seen it done, can you take the challenge? Submit your altered bra between now and September 12 to be entered into our "ScrapPink" contest. The winner will receive a $75 gift card from The Bra Specialist. Not inspired yet, check out our other samples in the store.
Several of our designers have started blogging and they are great at it! Check out Connie's blog or Carolyn's Blog! Way to go guys!!!!

July Challenge
Vacation... all I ever wanted. Vacation... had to get away.
Now that you have that great Hit of the 80's going through your head, sing your way to your supplies, dig through your photos, and get scrapping those vacation photos. You KNOW you have them... boxes, piles, CD's of vacation photos! I KNOW I have three different trips to Disney World sitting on a CD waiting to be scrapped! Let's see those summer vacation photos.
Share your summer vacation with us. Create a mini-album or layout (8X8) or larger that shares those lazy vacation days. Anything goes as long as vacation is the general theme behind the project! Bring in your layout or project to the store before July 31, 2008, for a chance to win a $15 A Scrap Affair gift certificate. All projects will be returned.

Pay It Forward
Good morning! I have just found the most wonderful and exciting idea on a friends blog (check out abra leah blog). She posted a "pay it forward" challenge and I am now doing the same. The first three people who publish a post to this blog will receive a special gift in the mail.
The concept is that we make someone's day for no reason at all! If you have a blog and you like the idea of giving to others, think about joining me in posting this challenge for all to see.
Don't forget to send your address information seperately in e-mail format to ascrapaffair@yahoo.com so that I can send you your goodies :) Have a happy day!
