Hello May! And hello to all our Category Stories followers.
Let’s launch into this Category shall we?
Documenting a week in your life has been all over the scrap world this past month thanks to Ali Edwards, and her wonderful annual series where she encourages people to document a week in their lives via her creative eye-candy blog!
The whole team at Category Stories loves Ali, so felt it fitting to jump into May with a bit of a CS spin on the concept!
This month we want to see you using the prompt of ” A Week in the Life of….” to put together a page (or a mini album, or journal etc) about a week in the life of, well, SOMETHING or ANYTHING or ANYONE. And it doesn’t have to be a week either, it could be a day, or a month, or a year or an hour!
So we can’t wait to see what you make. If you played along with Ali’s version, you are more than welcome to link back to us here to be added to the prize draw. And if also seeing our team’s pages encourage you to think about the concept in a different way, then feel free to create another page and submit that too!
All creations that are linked back here will be added to the monthly prize draw, and you’ll be given two entries in the draw if you also join our flickr group (link in the sidebar) and add your stuff there.
And this month you will definitely want to have your name in the running more than once, given we have a totally FANTASTIC sponsor, Country Papercraft, an online + bricks & mortar store, located in wonderful Bruce Rock, Western Australia.
And what is the great prize? Well it is not ONE but TWO $20AU vouchers to spend in the online store.
The first way to win a voucher is as normal, by linking your creation back here to this post, or uploading to the flickr group.
The second voucher, can be won by joining the Country Papercraft gallery and loading your pages into the section especially for this challenge here: CPC Category Stories Gallery.
For both prize draws, creations need to be uploaded by midnight, central USA time, on Monday 31st May.
Thank you to Marg from Country Papercraft, for being such a generous sponsor this month.
We’ll be doing a feature post of the pages made by the Country Papercraft team in a bit over a weeks time, so be sure to check back for that.
SO, on to our Storytellers fantastic takes on this months category, team you have outdone yourselves!

The team did a sensational job this month! We can’t wait to see what you do too.
This month, we also bid a sad farewell to Jessica, who has made a wonderful contribution to the team since she joined earlier this year. Best of luck Jessica, we will really miss you!
