This was shared on my scrapbooking forum last night:
Scrapbooks Etc. magazine is doing a "Kid on the Cover" photo search. At Scrapbooks etc. we think all kids are cute, and we’re celebrating our 10th Anniversary by putting one lucky kid on the cover. We’ll hold six themed photo contests throughout 2009. You’ll upload the photos of your kids, and a panel of judges will select five semi-finalists. Those five will then be posted here for the public to vote. Get the word out to family, friends, etc., and make sure they come back to vote every day because the leading vote getter will be one of the six finalists.
This is what they are looking for now!
February/March Show us your cute kid! Upload your sweetest shots of your child enjoying Valentine's Day activities or anything you think would look perfect on our February/March cover. To increase your chance of winning make sure the photo shows just one person and focuses on the child's face. Also, the child should be smiling, relaxed, and looking at the camera.Upload your photos today at http://www.scrapbooksetc.com/kidonthecover/
I can't actually play because of this part:
Open to parents or legal guardians of children between the ages of two (2) years and seven (7) years of age as of January 22, 2009, who are legal residents of the 50 United States or the District of Columbia, 21 years or older.
But I thought I would get it out there for my American neighbours!

Project 365
You've seen the challenges all over the place: A photo a day. A photo a week. A self-portrait a week. A self portrait a day (I cringe to think).
Maybe you think they're crazy.
Maybe you secretly want to join in.
Maybe you already do it.
Maybe you've tried and failed.
Maybe you're wondering what you'd DO with those photos when you're done. Do they sit on your hardrive forever? Do you post them to Flickr or some other site and let that be enough? Blog them all?
I don't have the answers.
But Becky Higgins has a new kit that I'm incredibly excited about. Aptly named Project 365, it's an album and all the "stuff" you'll need to scrapbook your own photo a day project. I've only purchased one other kit through CK because the shipping costs to Canada are MORE than the kit itself (and what is UP with that? Ticks me off), but I'm seriously tempted by THIS kit.
Check out a video of the contents HERE and then tell me what you think. Do you already do a photo a day challenge somewhere? What do you do with your photos? This kit is very simple and not a traditional scrapbook, so if you're a scrapbooker do you like it or would you rather do your own thing? If you're not a scrapbooker, does this appeal to you?
ETA: This doesn't go on sale until January 1st, but I'll be sure to add a link then.
