Album Artist's Cheat Sheet Tatters Reputation

Kristina Contes recently won a national scrapbooking contest but her title got taken away because of a scandal. Her name might be removed from the Creating Keepsakes Hall of Fame. Full Story...

Ms Contes contacted the magazine to ask that the article announcing the winning entry identify her friend in the photo credits. Since Contes had not taken the photos herself, a violation of the contest rules, her entry was invalidated and she had to return the crown.

I guess the runner up will fulfil the duties of the deposed queen.


Can't resist - At least Contes didn't claim she'd been framed. She could have embellished the story.
Who knew? There's a scrapbooking hall of fame?

Reality Show - Coming Soon?- Hobby Wars
It might focus on the pressures of hobby competitions, strategies of The Sports Card Show and sacrifices made in the name of winning. Each episode might feature a different hobby:There would have to be a special episode dedicated to Reading the Rules for Maximizing Elasticity: Bending Without Breaking.

An Empress would rule the scrapbooking universe.
Being recognized in the Hall of Fame is the ulti-matte accomplishment of any career.

You can't label her a cheater. She admitted her friend was the photographer.
