    Hi everyone, I have shopped here for years and registered for the forum ages ago but I don't think I've ever posted here. I'm looking for new scrapbook challenges and the MOC just caught my attention. I've read the rules and can't wait to jump in. Thanks for having me.:moo

    Welcome! If you have any questions, be sure to let us know!
    We also have Designer Challenges and Monthly Challenges. Well, no monthly challenges during MOC, but normally there's 8. :agree

    Hi, I've been drooling over the gallery the past few weeks, and finally made the jump. Is it too late to jump into your challenges? Thanks.

    Welcome to TLP, Anna! Now is a great time to hop into MOC! It's so much fun and you have time to catch up. (And if you don't finish, then what's the worst that happens? You end up scrapping your wonderful memories and/or photos. If you make "just" one MOC layout, it's still a win-win!) And while MOC is a month-long event with a new challenge posted each day, there are monthly challenges posted February through December, too. LOTS of chances to interact and have fun while also creating your pages!

    As for getting started, perhaps you've already seen this thread but just in case, you can check out MOC Guidelines. It gives you some insight into the practical side as well as the Heart of MOC. Laura, Julie, and the Pollys (everyone involved in creating and implementing MOC) do a fantastic job making January full of community and fun as well as inspiration. And there are so many people who'll be there to help if you need anything. Thanks for joining in!

    Welcome Anna to the Lily Pad. I hope you find the time to do some of the challenges happening this month for our MOC ( Month of Challenges ). I suggest you read through them all and choose ones that grab your attention that you can do easily to start with and then go back and do the more difficult ones.

    Hi Anna and welcome to TLP!! I totally agree with Sara @Tree City - if you don't finish, you'll still create a lot of great layouts. I didn't come here until the 2nd week of MOC last year and never caught up, but I ended up doing almost all of the challenges anyway. It was fun to get them done in my own time. I think Anne-Marie @A-M has a good point, do the challenges that grab your attention first.

    Good luck and just jump in and give it a try. Yes, as Anne @AnneofAlamo says, "drool happens all the time here". :giggle:giggle

    Oh Thank you everyone! I got ahead and started some pages for a trip I did a few years ago. I found most of the challenges work for this project (so happy!). I'm a bit stuck on a few others though. I'll follow your advice and just do what I can. Thanks so much for all the advice and welcoming replies.

    You can always post in the forum for help when you are stuck. Everyone is happy to jump in and help you with an idea or instructions on technical challenges.

    Thank you!
    I am slowly catching up. It does help that I am sticking to one project. The challenges like the silhouette one or the bucket list made me think a while, but I've got them uploaded now. I am so pleased that I will be able to print off most pages as they are or with very minor changes for my travel book!

    I didn't honestly realize there was a forum here until I got sucked into Project Mouse celebration. Glad to be here!

    Hi- I can't believe I never had an account...which is weird since I've been around/purchasing things since like 2009/2010. But, glad to be here "officially".
