Welcome to "Simply The Best" hosted by Alessandra Designs.

Each month we will have a new challenge called "Simply The Best" hosted by me. Like the name suggests, we will be talking about what, in your opinion, is simply the best. It can be a restaurant, city, make up, food, anything that will help me to know each of you better. I don't have time to create a Layout, but I also want you to know me better, so I'll talk about my Simply The Best here, in the original post.

I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas and have fun in 2010. Most of you are in the winter, a time to enjoy your home and family. So, this month lets talk about which for you is "Simply The Best" thing to do in a cold day. To me is to hang around our fireplace with a great glass of red wine, music and my friends. Now, tell me about your "Simply The Best" thing to do in a cold day?

I will need a photo AND JOURNALING. Please don't skip journaling. Only the title isn't enough.

You will have the whole month to post your layout. But there are some rules to follow.

I want you to scrap from your heart and without any limitation, except for good taste, lol.

Let's have fun and let people feel as if they were here with us!

You can use whatever kit you like, to create your layouts, but in order to qualify to the posting bonus, you have to use at least 3 items from a Digitals Designer. It can be freebies or purchased.

You also cannot “double up” on challenges, meaning you cannot use the same layout for different Digitals challenges. Each layout needs to be exclusive to that challenge. Other than that, there are no requirements.

When you are done creating your layout, post it to this gallery:
http://digitalscrapbookpages.com/galleria/showgallery.php/cat/1426

Then copy the link and paste it in this thread, so we will all be able to see the layouts you've created.

Although I don't have time to create a layout sample for you, I will just delight myself seeing yours! Keep them coming!

Have Fun!!!

I loved using your Shangri-Li Kit for my page. Could have gone so many ways to create the feeling of cold (but in a pretty way). Here is mine

Yes, I do like to vacation at the beach in the winter. It isn't even that warm. Last year we went to the Cape at the beginning of March. Very cold wind. Here is my page:
