It’s the start of a bright and beautiful new year and we are so VERY excited to be launching our challenges here at The Digital Press! I’m here today to introduce them to you and tell you a little bit about our vision for the year.

Each month always seems to have a flavor all its own. January, for example, is a month that can be full of wishes, hopes and dreams. It’s a time for resolutions and a time to daydream. It’s a time to clear out all the clutter and put those messy holidays behind us. Everything is fresh, new and exciting. It’s a time to focus on the things that we want most from the year that’s so full of potential.

The word “focus” really stood out to me last week as I thought about things in my own life. But I just loved how this word also could apply to my love of photography and scrapbooking!

Focus has so many shades of meaning…

So, in this first month of the new year, we are focusing in at The Digital Press!

We have some amazing and inspirational posts coming your way right here on the blog. We will also have a host of new challenges on the forums to spark your creativity and help you to make pages you really love.

You’ll find all the details of our new challenge system laid out for you here: Everything You Need to Know about Challenges

Our challenges start tomorrow. We hope you’ll join us then!

We hope you’ll have a great time scrapping along with us throughout the year. We’re looking forward to seeing all your beautiful work!
