Summertime Challenge!

County fairs. Trips to the beach. No school. Summer school. Bare feet and flip flops. Watermelon. Water skiing. Surfing and boogie boarding. Popsicles. Long days and sunscreen. Baseball and road trips. Just what summer memories are you living right now?

The Bind-it-All Zutter Zisters Design Team challenges you to make a mini book documenting something about your summer NOW.




Here's what you need to do:
Create a mini album 8X8 or smaller about something - anything - about summer. A summer event you attended, a summer memory or just awesome summer photos. Punch and bind it with the Bind-it-All and post a link to a couple of awesome photos in a comment on this blog entry. Tell us about the project and about what Zutter tools and/or materials you used. Make sure you tell us your hometown too!

The challenge is open now and deadline to post your link is July 31. We are going to select THREE winners to receive a Zutter Display-it-All album stand, like the one Lea Sanders used for her "Sun" album above. Winners will be announced the first week in August!

Visit the Design Team Gallery for the latest project submissions from our talented team.

Have a happy "bindy" summer!

    Here are two projects I made last week using my BIA:
    http://loucaporscrap.blogspot.com/2009/07/lembrancinhas-com-bind-it-all.html

    These are baby favours using Sunny Days Paper (Prima). I made these projects to the design gallery of http://www.scrapStuff.com.br, a Brazilian scrapbooking store dealer of Zutter products.

    TFL ;)

    I did a 6x6 summer album as my first BIA project ever this past weekend! I used the 6x6 chipboard covers from Zutter and the 1/2" o rings. Here is a link: http://kandcats.blogspot.com/2009/07/my-3d-challenge-for-ladies-ink.html

    OH, what FUN! I made a summer album for this challenge called 'Summer Fun'. The covers are acrylic and I used my BIA and 1/2" O-Wires. The inside front cover has sand from the beach added to the bottom.
    We live in a small, rural community and have fun going to the river to ride in the boat, tube or just paddle the boat around!
    You can see my album at http://papercraftpleasures.blogspot.com/

    I also enjoyed this challenge, and finally got to use my Zutter perfect closure, though I dyed both the leather and the clasp!

    See my project here, just waiting for photos. http://s131.photobucket.com/albums/p300/azi-muth/summer_album/

    This is the first challenge I've participated in and I had so much fun! One of my "goals" has been to join a challenge and start a blog - and I did both this week!

    Here is the link to my Sounds of Summer album. I used the Sounds Easy Voice Recorder to document our favorite summer sounds along with our photos.
