It is time to clear a spot on the shelf just for your memories. Things that make you who you are and what matters the most to you.
You can no longer hide behind the camera, I want you to make an effort to hand your camera to some-one else or take a few more self portraits. Allow your creative to shine through.
Every month I will challenge you to share a little more of yourself with us and with the people who need to know the most, your loved ones. We will preserve your thoughts and memories for people to enjoy for years to come.

Scrapping memories about us is so important and as much as I hate my photo being taken, I know that these pages about me will teach my children more about who I am and what I love.

I hate having my photo taken and I am usually the photographer so I went through my photos and the last photos of me were taken in 2007! This challlenge is definitely going to be just that, a challenge!
Yesterday I did the page that Lisa taught at the Scrapbooking Delights Retreat in August, I couldn't do the class as i was working but bought the kit. Finally got it done, its like an A-Z of Me type thing with LOTS of journalling. I absolutely LOVED doing it and loved the finished result. I wrote down lots of things that otherwise people won't know about me....and I think that is really important for me in later years, and for my children & grandchildren.

I love the sound of this challenge except for the fact that it is on me, that in itself is a challenge. I have one photo scrapped of me and that is one wedding photo.

Kelley, unless Kerryn asks for a profile photo of you why not think up ways to overcome this. Use magazine pictures or stock photos, do pages with no picture or use sketches or painting of you instead.

Oh I love this, Im always going to do 'me' pages, but they always go by the way cause Im not good at girly LOs.
I hate having my photo taken too, never grew up with a camera in the family and I think that makes most of my generation a bit camera shy but with the digi cameras these days you can take heaps and then delete heaps...too easy
I have done 1st one over the weekend and I was stoked that i did .I decided I will do those more often so this challenge is going to "push "me to actually do it... but I think I need to start having some photos of me taken as I hate having photos taken of me.
