Kara here, with a brand new Sweet Genevieve challenge! But before we get to that, I want to thank those of you who participated in our Teenie Bopper movie challenge! We loved seeing your layouts. Jodie wanted me to let you know that she chose Donna’s layout, Say Anything to win a $5 GC to Genevieve’s store. The great news is that Genevieve is allowing us to give another $5 GC to a random layout as well. The lucky random winner is Maya, for her layout She’s the Man. Congratulations ladies!!!!!
Now onto the challenge. Those of you in the United States know that this Thursday is Thanksgiving. That inspired me to have a Thanksgiving challenge...but not just any kind of Thanksgiving. This time, I’d like you to scrap about something you are thankful for now, but weren’t necessarily thankful for when you were going through it or first received it. For example, I scrapped about a missions trip I took to Austria. My team went through a lot of difficult experiences, but in the end God taught us a lot about what it really means to “love one another” and we all became much better people, and very good friends because of our experiences. The focus on this layout should be your journaling.
Here’s my layout to inspire you:

Please link us up to your layout by 11:59 PST on November 30th. You’ll be entered into a random drawing! As an extra incentive, those of you who create a layout with at least 80% Sweet Genevieve product will be entered twice! Get to scrapping!

Ok, first things first...welcome to our November Guest CTer, Cora! Here are a few words from Cora:
I’m Cora, I’m 13 and in the 8th grade. I’m so thankful to Mrs. Genevieve for letting me come guest this month! I have been digiscrapping since March of this year and of course, my mom got me into it. I have two little sisters, one little brother, a cat, and a dog. Those are my main scrap subjects! I’m homeschooled and I love it! That’s pretty much me!
I think it is so awesome that Cora and her mom digiscrap together...I hope Lily will enjoy this hobby one day, too! Since we have a rockin’ teenager as our guest this month, I decided it might be fun to do a teen themed challenge! This time around, I’m challenging you to scrap about your favorite teeny-bopper movie! Here are some examples that Kara, Cora, and I did to give you a little inspiration!
Cora’s layout about The Princess Diaries really shows off Gen’s new ribbons!
I love the bright colors on Kara’s layout about Ten Things I Hate About You.

I did my layout about one of my ALL-TIME fave movies, Pretty in Pink! You can click on the image for a link to credits. 
So, do a layout about your favorite teen movie, post it in a gallery, then come back here to post a link in a comment. Post your comment with link here before midnight (CST) on Saturday, November 17. A random winner will be chosen to win a $5 Sweet Genevieve coupon!
