Ad This
I asked the blog founder, Elisa Kammerdiener to tell us more about her fresh and fun challenge site. Here is what she had to say!
How is your challenge blog unique?
I would have to say out challenge blog is unique in the way that we are using ad's for the base of our challenges. When I started Ad This it was because I love using ad's as a way to get my "mojo" started or when I'm stuck on a project or product. There were not any challenge sites that were using ad's, so I started Ad This.
How have your personal scrapbooking styles or approaches changed since you started the blog?
The team reflected on this question and every member agreed that they are pushed outside of their comfort zone and motivated to try new approaches. Many members now find inspiration in the things around their environment. Mandy, Elisa and Aleta also spoke of how their products are more artsy now after experimenting with different mediums or color
schemes.
How do
you
encourage
involvement
from the
scrapbooking
community?
Each week we
have a new
ad and
twist, and
at the end
of the week
we pick
someone to
join us the
following
week as our
guest
designer. We
use a link
form for
users who
join us to
post their
layout links
so everyone
can see what
they did
with the ad.
Which
challenge
has
generated
the biggest
buzz or a
surprising
response?
Our recycled
challenge
generated a
big response
with not
only ad's
but e-mails
saying they
really liked
the idea of
using not
only
products
from green
companies
but finding
things in
there home
they could
recycle and
use on there
layouts.
What can
we expect
from your
blog in the
future?
More
creative
ad's with
some out of
the box
twists.
Perhaps, I should visit this blog every Monday when a new challenge is posted. I have a feeling that the rigidity would be forced right out of me! Out of the box does sound like a good scrappy time! If you are looking to be inspired in a fresh way, visit Ad This. Just beware, it is highly addictive!
