I haven’t tried a Dare before. Does it matter where our layout resides (should it be in a digital gallery or can it be on a blog?)? The team made such wonderful layouts, I am inspired to try!
Hi Kimberlee! It doesn’t matter where it is, as long as you can link us to it!
Congrats on 3 years! What a talented bunch and such fantastic LO’s!
woohoo Happy 3rd Anniversary!
thanks for the fabulous pressie too!
can’t wait to get started on this fun Dare!
congratulations!!!
What a fun dare! Congrats on 3 years! My extras are 3 different stitches, 3 different brushes, 3 doodles

Congrats on 3 years!
I loved this challenge! I used pictures I got today
My extras were that I used three designers (does it count against me if I didn’t realize that until I went to post it? 
)

Thanks for the awesome challenges for 3 years!!
Here’s my first attempt at digital scrapbooking! It was fun – and congrats on 3 years! LOVE this kit! I don’t usually do layouts digitally, but do cards, etc which this kit is perfect for!
didn’t post the link…

My first digi-dare.
http://www.digishoptalk.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=842930&cat=500
Here’s mine! I took 3s farther by using three different designers, using three of each of my elements (sewn stars, sewn doodles, and three light sabers), AND having three parts to my date.
That was fun! Thanks! And Happy Anniversary!!!
http://www.sweetshoppecommunity.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=111958&ppuser=7007
Love the challenge! Haven’t done a digi-dare in forever.
I posted mine on my blog:
http://paper-cat.blogspot.com/2009/11/on-roll.html
I scrapped photos of 3 of the girls in my family: me and my 2 daughters.
Another 3 theme? I placed my elements on 3 sides of the page – the design looks like a triangle
I thought I would use all Valerie Brown items in my layout. The 3 papers are all from Spring Rain. The three buttons are from SugarBaby. The 3 alphas are from Spring Rain, SugarBaby & Sweet Noel. I also used 3 fonts, Whoobub, Another Typewriter & Notepad. We’re going to the Wetlands again tomorrow. I’m looking forward to it! Thanks for the fun!

Great challenge, but I couldn’t decide, fun or serious, so this is sort of both, and I wanted us to look purty (pretty)! So here are the extras: The photos are 3 different wedding photos, 3 fonts, 3 frames,3 glitter splotches, and 3 papershapers. (diamonds, row of beads, hearts)
