Here we come, walking down the street . . . ready to get groovy with some Monkees-themed scrapbooking fun? Whether you’re a Daydream Believer or just someone who loves a good creative challenge, we'll have you monkeying around with your scrapbook supplies in no time! Let’s dive into some Monkees-inspired scrapbooking challenges, based on ALL things Monkees - from their names, lyrics from their iconic songs, and their TV show.

Let’s get scrapping, Monkees fans! Whether you’re using vintage vibes, bright ‘60s colors, or a mix of modern and retro, let these themes bring a little extra joy to your scrapbooking journey. And remember—keep on Monkeeing around!

A new Blue Plate Special challenge is posted each Monday (sketch), Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Participants have until the 3rd of the following month to complete and post their creations in the Cookin' up Creations Gallery.

Prize will be a $20 Gift Certificate to their favorite online store (random drawing).....

This week’s challenge is inspired by the one-of-a-kind Monkeemobile—zany, iconic, and always ready for adventure! Whether you're a fan of The Monkees or just love a good ride, this challenge is all about capturing that on-the-go energy.

To play along, your layout must include:
* A method of transportation — this can be in your photo (like a car, bike, plane, etc.) or just as an embellishment.
* Sprinkle some hearts — a few heart embellishments or stamped hearts to show the love.
*Add a subtitle to your title — think of it like a catchy phrase or a little extra context right under your main title.

Let’s roll back the years, hit the road, and get scrapping!
Can’t wait to see how you take this challenge for a spin!

Here is my example:
