Good and Happy Wednesday to you all.  Im glad you all stopped by for another edition of the RAKScraps Blog!

The March 2010 RAKScraps Digital Scrapbooking Newsletter is out and it is just full of info, links to Newsletter freebies, challenges and a great tutorial on QuickPages! 

 And we have a new challenge, Tour De Gallery.  Tour De Gallery is a fun challenge that invites us all to get into the gallery more and look at all the great layouts and leave a little love and positive comments on them.  The challenge is laid out in the first post so be sure to jump on in and Tour De Gallery!  And the tour will take many different routes, with gallery hunts, games, and other fun activities each month!  And the prize for participation this month is an alpha set created by Floppy Latte Designs that will coordinate with the other great RAKS given out in the month of March! 

Designer Highlights:

We have two new Designers to highlight this month - Meredith Cardall and Garden Girl Designs. Be sure to stop by the forum and say hello, and check back frequently for challenges from these highlighted Designers!  Let them know how much we appreciate them.

Meredith has a freebie in the newsletter for all of us to download!  It is a great kit called  “Sweet Spring Sampler”.   Download this great freebie, create a layout and upload it to the Meredith Cardall Gallery and the lucky participants will recieve a great prize from Meredith!

Garden Girls Designs, our other highlighted Designer also has a freebie in the newsletter - a sweet little scrapkit called “Rachel”.  Download this free scrapkit and upload your layout to the Garden Girls Gallery and at the end of the month, the lucky participants will recieve a great prize from Garden Girls!

As always, there are a ton of challenges in the Forums at RAKScraps!  I try to list several each week:

This week, along with the Tou De Gallery challenge we have the -

**March RAKfile Challenge - What a way to put those freebies and RAKs prizes to use!  This month’s challenge, hosted by teddyprayer, is to use one of your prize kits to scrap a layout.  Any prize kit is fair game, and for you all who are new to RAKScraps, you can use a freebie from the RAKS for all Forum.  There are a lot of great kits there for you!  And for your participation, you will recieve this lovely collection from our very own Angela of Toucan Scraps!

 Thank you Angela for such a lovely RAK!  I can almost feel spring time!

**Quote Challenge with Heather - Heather and Joanne have put together some great word art relating to Spring for us to use in this challenge.  All about Spring Flowers!  Just download the word art and scrap some Springtime!

Have you ever wanted to make a Quickpage to scrap with or to enter the Quickpage Exchange?  Well, this month in the Newsletter there is a great tutorial on how to make a Quickpage.  It is a wonderful tutorial that walks you through, step by step how to create a quickpage from a favorite layout!  QuickPages are a great way to quickly scrap a page!

Remember the Quickpage exchange Quickpages are up in the RAK Center for all registered members to download as well!

The March Mega Kit will be available in the RAK Center for download starting on the 15th of this month!  Make sure that you get yours while it is available for 0 points!

And, when you have a moment, be sure to stop by 3Scrapateers and Scrapwow to see the great offerings at our sister sites!

Until my next post, have a great week!
