Dare 56 Winner

I've just done the draw for the winner of Dare 56 (all my helpers are asleep or out!) and the winner of the SENZ class pack is Amanda with this page about her father, a very important person to have in your scrapbook!
And my pick for the guest designer, for dare 58 is Carol with this page...
While its an incredibly beautiful page it was the story that got to me, how very sad.
Amanda if you could send me an email at vickyandjimmy at gmail dot com I will arrange getting that kit to you and Carol we will be in touch about the next dare :)
thanks everyone for playing along and watch out for a new dare tomorrow and some fab inspo from the lovely darers :)

New contributor and another week for dare # 56

We'd love to welcome to our team the lovely and extremely talented Lara Moss. We love her work and look forward to her joining us to bring you some more cool dares.

ALSO, we are a bit behind this week because of SENZ and other things, and because we didn't put the deadline on the last dare we are extending it for another week. SO, you have till next Wed 29th Oct 6pm to get your LO's done for Dare # 56.
We are also going back to the old way of doing things and asking you to leave a link in the comments to your LO's on your blog, gallery or you may use the Flickr group if you like, just leave a link in the comments on the NZ Dare blog. If necessary you can email your LO to me at RANDLGRAY@xtra.co.nz (no bigger than 100kb).

So now you have extra time we'd love to see lots of cool LO's for this dare because there is an awesome prize up for grabs from the lovely Andrea at SBO.

Danices guest designer LO

Sorry it's late, my fault, as I was away when Danice sent it to me. But here it is and how cool is it. Danice has scrapped her flatmate. I love the cool title and funky Heidi Grace papers she used.

Dare 56

Welcome to Dare 56!
As I'm sure you know this is a big scrapping weekend. Im sure loads of you are at SENZ and for those of you who aren't heres a dare to keep you going.

Who is missing from Your scrapbook? There must be at least one person, integral to YOUR story that is missing. I dare you to scrap a page, if not all about them, then definately featuring that person!
Easy right. Here is my page. I am SO Happy that i have this page done, I cant imagine looking through my scrapbooks in 20 years time and my friend not being in them!
And this week we have 2 guest designers, first Julie Bode with her gorgeous page about her Grandpop
And another still to come.
And there is a really cool prize for this dare! Thanks to Andrea from SBO, you could win a SENZ class kit! WOOHOO! then next best thing to being there!!!
Sharon's layout - my layout is about one of my sisters:


Meek - Hi everyone, for this dare I've created a lovely simple mini album for a very sweet, very special little dog who came into our lives just after hubby and I were married...though she had a serious illness she was full of spirit and gave us much joy...sadly just before we came back to NZ from the UK we had to make the heart breaking decision that many pet owners have made before us....

we have a great little collection of photos from her time with us, she went absolutely everywhere we went, camping, to ireland, kayaking up the river and adored riding in the car sprawled out on the backseat on to her next adventure...as you can see I have not yet finished compiling all the pages but it feels great to be getting Hilda's story out and reliving some fun memories.....


Lianne - My sister is missing from my scrapbooks, so I scrapped this photo of my Mum, my sister and I at Mums birthday dinner recently.


Donna - my Grandfather!

So who and what great story is missing from your scrapbooks...? Have fun!
