30 Minute Layout Week Challenge

Hope you have been enjoying 30 Minute Layout week and have gotten some pages done.  Before we finish off the week, let's announce the winner of last week's Farewell 2009 Challenge.  There were some fabulous entries for this challenge!  Congratulations to Nina!

And here's a new challenge for you to tackle for a chance to win a Thickers prize pack!

Design Team member Melanie has one more fabulous 30 minute layout to share with you...
Supplies: 8.8x11 White (71273)- AC Cardstock, Glitter Powder 12X12 (71425)-  AC Specialty cardstock, Bushels of fun paper (34514)- Christmas, Toffee paper (34914) -Merrymint, Salutations Black (53000) Thickers, Subway Black (42917) Thickers, Frosting Accents & Phrases (42576) Remarks

Melanie says: "I'm not a fast scrapper, even though my style is ultra simple. I like to leave things sitting for a while before I commit to gluing anything down, but on this layout, I forced myself to just stick it down and not second guess myself. I've been known to pull out 50 different papers and Thickers to see if I like one better than the other!  This particular layout took me just under an hour, once I had my supplies chosen and decided on a basic design."

Now it's your turn...
1. The layout must be posted to an online gallery or blog with American Crafts in your supply list.

2.  You must leave a comment on this blog post with a link to your layout online.  You also must fill in your email address when posting your comment on this blog post.

3. Layouts and links must be posted by midnight PST on Thursday, January 14.

Can't wait to see your layouts!

I wanted so badly to do the last challenge but this week was just crazy! So, I am going to give it my best effort to do this one. After all, we only get 30 minutes and I can surely spare that for a Thickers prize pack!

Its more like a 20 min layout if you take 10 min to journal like I do!!

I'm a relatively quick scrapper but I never did a speed layout like this. Thanks for the challenge

I love Mel's layout. Wow! A great photo and an awesome LO design. What a great topic to scrap about too. :)

Here's my 30-minute page. It took me a little longer than that, but not too much longer.
