Wednesday June 15 WEEKLY/DAILY encouragement challenge

Daily Scrap Encouragement Progressive Style

To encourage one another to create pages I will post daily and weekly steps to creating a page. Feel free to follow along and to come by everyday and create a page. Or you can collect instructions for completing one page a week. The weekly instructions will be posted in steps the first two instructions on Monday, the next three instructions on Wednesday, and the final three instructions on Friday. The instructions are like the instructions we use for the progressive challenge.

Feel free to complete one page for this challenge or up to six pages for the challenge. Each completed page that follows a specific set of instructions will be eligible for a small RAK. This RAK will be awarded randomly.

Best part yet, use this as you complete pages for other challenges. Add the requirement for the other challenge into the steps assigned here.

RULES:
* Your layout must follow the directions posted.
**Any size of layout or card, \ one or 2-pages are allowed. Sorry no digi layouts since one step will be to add something handmade to the page,
*** You can only upload new layouts from Monday the 13th June until Sunday 19th of June, 2011 at midnight sb.com time
****In your post include the date of the instructions you followed to complete your page,
