Hello, I’m. . .

Our focus for April is Connecting.  As we thought about this month’s photo challenge, we kept coming back to how fun it would be if we could actually get to know each other.  ‘Hey’, we thought.  ‘Maybe that’s not a half bad idea’.

That’s how we came up with April’s photo challenge.  This month’s challenge is all about getting to know each other.  You, our team, and other members of the Coterie.  What you love.  Your guilty pleasures.  What inspires you.

Each day, follow the photo prompt.  Share your photo via Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.  Tag your photos with the hashtag #connectwithpc and the name of the prompt.  We’ll do the same.  We can’t wait to get acquainted.

Are you in?  Leave a comment.  Tell us something about yourself.  Tell us you’d like to connect this month.  We’ll send a little love to your inbox to say, ‘hello’.

Happy April!

the Paper Coterie

    I love the April prompts! I’m notorious for starting a challenge and not getting far, but I’m determined to do this one!

  3. Stephanie England March 30, 2012 at 5:23 am

  5. jamie March 30, 2012 at 5:37 am

    I fell off the March wagon so I’m hoping to stick with each day in April. Most of my photos tend to revolve around my daughter.

  6. Gabriel March 30, 2012 at 5:39 am

    Yeah! Let the insta party begin!

  7. Diane March 30, 2012 at 5:48 am

  17. Heather March 30, 2012 at 10:18 am

    Hi Paper Coterie! Thanks for helping to inspire all of us to take more photos and do more with the photos we take! I’m always looking for quicker ways to share my photos in meaningful ways.

  27. Judit March 30, 2012 at 10:36 am

    I like the idea! The last 2 years, me and my love have completed several “photo checklists” found on the internet. Now ready for another challenge!

  45. Allison M. March 30, 2012 at 11:34 am

    This sounds like fun – a chance to focus on me in my photos for a change! I participated a bit in March, but found it getting harder to get shots of each prompt. April’s prompts look great and I can’t wait to play a long.

  46. Emily March 30, 2012 at 11:36 am

  51. Stacy March 30, 2012 at 11:49 am

    I’ll give it a try! Sounds like fun.

  52. Sobeida Rodriguez March 30, 2012 at 11:50 am

    I love these. Thanks for helping me document my days.

  63. KatieT March 30, 2012 at 12:20 pm

  92. Heather R. March 30, 2012 at 12:59 pm

    Sounds Fun!

  143. Monika Wright March 30, 2012 at 2:08 pm

    I began the year with the plan to take at least one photo a day in Instagram to chronicle our everyday life. January I did it alone, February I used photo a day challenge prompts, and in March I found you. So, of course, in April, I’m in again. I adore finding ways to represent the prompt and take photos of things that I would never even have thought to include. Life is Great, of this I am sure! A little something about myself…I hate when family members leave “piles” around the house, but it doesn’t bother me if I leave a pile laying around. Funny how that works, right?

  144. Natalie S. March 30, 2012 at 2:08 pm

    Im in! Sounds like fun!

  145. Janet March 30, 2012 at 2:09 pm

  170. Karen G March 30, 2012 at 2:49 pm

    I absolutely LOVE the idea but I do Instagram, Twitter or Facebook :(

  171. Misch K March 30, 2012 at 2:49 pm

    I am in. Can’t wait for day 1 :)

  172. Penny March 30, 2012 at 2:52 pm

    Looking forward to getting to know pc!

  173. Ashlee March 30, 2012 at 2:52 pm

    YAY! I completed nearly all of March, exceptions were relaxation, since I just didn’t get any of that at all near the day, and favorite book, since every time I was reading either to my girls or for myself, I had my phone away! :)

    So hello! I’m excited for this challenge. It’ll force me to not just take photos of my daughters each day and have the captions apply! (I did take special photos each day for the challenge, but they did tend to be mainly of my girls, I cannot help it! They’re 4 mo & nearly 3 years and I’m home with them all day!)

  174. Lani March 30, 2012 at 2:54 pm

    Sounds fun, I love taking photos and I’m going to try my hardest to share each day.

  175. Jackie March 30, 2012 at 2:55 pm

    I’m in! I missed a couple days this month but I’m excited for April!

  176. Carol M March 30, 2012 at 2:58 pm

    Great ideas, I’d love to connect! I love penguins, and I got to see a sneak preview of Mirror Mirror this week – very fun.

  177. Penny D. March 30, 2012 at 3:02 pm

    Sure! I’ll try this challenge. Sounds fun!

  178. Luly F March 30, 2012 at 3:02 pm

    Sounds like fun but have no idea how this works! Please explain. Love your site and ideas!!

    • papercoterie March 30, 2012 at 3:12 pm

      Everyday, you take a photo based on that day’s photo prompt. For example, #1 is My Home. On April 1, you’ll take a photo that you feel inspired to take based on ‘My Home’. Upload the photo to our facebook page with #connectwithpc somewhere in the comment. You can also share via Twitter and Instagram. Hope that helps. The idea is, we’ll see your photo, learn a little more about you, and have some fun. :)

  179. Lauren March 30, 2012 at 3:03 pm

    Always up for a challenge… : )

  180. ulia smich March 30, 2012 at 3:05 pm

  185. Lauren Maar March 30, 2012 at 3:14 pm

    this is an awesome idea! I just got a new camera and would love to play around with it!

  186. Tricia March 30, 2012 at 3:16 pm

  194. Monique March 30, 2012 at 3:35 pm

    I’d love to connect this month! In fact, I’ve already commented on the Game On post. :)

  195. Amber March 30, 2012 at 3:36 pm

    This sounds like a great idea! I’m not very good at self portraits. What a great time to work on them!

  196. Katie March 30, 2012 at 3:38 pm

    I’m so in! I don’t do enough taking time for myself, so this will be a great challenge to see if I can simply take a picture of the MY things in my life everyday!

  197. Katie March 30, 2012 at 3:39 pm

    I am in love with Paper Coterie! your stuff is so professional looking. I give your beautifully designed products for gifts and it ends up being the talk of the night! Looking forward to the challenge!!

  213. Amy Jo March 30, 2012 at 4:17 pm

    This looks awesome. I’ve always wanted to do a photo challenge to get me to document more of the everyday little things that makes my life “my life” but haven’t found one I was very inspired by, but this one looks great!

  214. MK March 30, 2012 at 4:18 pm

  270. Stacey March 30, 2012 at 7:23 pm

    I’m in; this will be something out of the norm to add to my daily routine. I’m thirty-six, work in local government, enjoys the beach and that’s the only time I’m okay with being hot. It’s very hot (mid – high 80s)in North Florida already…can’t imagine what the summer will be like.

  271. Ashley C March 30, 2012 at 7:36 pm

    I think I’ll try it out.

  272. Marsaille March 30, 2012 at 7:37 pm

    I love this idea and am putting the prompts into my google calendar so it pops up everyday. Think this will be perfect for a My Life book. Wish I had an iPhone and instagram, but will make do. ou’ll put up with shots from a Canon, right (weak pun intended)? Stay Calm and Snap the Shutter Anyway, M.

  273. CassSleep March 30, 2012 at 7:40 pm

    Ooooo… Fun!
    Love our PC product… Can’t wait to order more. And how fun would this be, to share and have for ourselves… Figure out at least 30 things that make me, me!

  274. LisaAnn March 30, 2012 at 7:41 pm

    Sounds good!

  275. Carrie March 30, 2012 at 7:49 pm

    I’m in! I’ve never done anything like this before and can’t wait to get started. I’m a stay-at-home mother of 2 beautiful little girls, will start online college courses next week, and am addicted to Pinterest. This should be fun and give me great practice with Instagram! Thank you!!!

  284. Sandra March 30, 2012 at 8:38 pm

  287. Abbey March 30, 2012 at 8:46 pm

  308. Amber March 30, 2012 at 11:25 pm

What better way to start then with this project! Something random about me – I have an insane lipgloss addiction. There are currently 6 different kinds in my purse, 3 in the diaper bag, 2 in the car, and a gajillion in my house. I can’t help myself. :)

  465. Amy April 2, 2012 at 3:52 pm

  467. Janille April 2, 2012 at 5:13 pm

    I’m in! I did the March one too☺ It’s good to keep your eyes open for photo opportunities of every day life and photo challenges totally do that!

  468. Pauline April 2, 2012 at 5:23 pm

    This sounds like a lot of fun!

  469. Renae April 2, 2012 at 5:39 pm

    I had to make up for yesterday already but I’m going to try. …. sounds like fun and something to have a little creative challenge for each day! Great idea!!!

  470. Rakhi April 2, 2012 at 5:42 pm

    Love this idea. I am in.

  471. Amber April 2, 2012 at 7:33 pm

    I am new to this photo challenge thing but enjoying April so far . . . we will see how it goes. I work 12 hour shifts and commute so those days could be a challenge. Thanks for inspiring me though!

  472. Lynne April 2, 2012 at 8:04 pm

    I’m in!

  473. Marcia April 2, 2012 at 8:13 pm

    A day late, but I’m in too. This comes in perfect timing for me. A little something different to see more of my everyday with new eyes. Thank you for gathering us to connect in a fun way.

  478. dawn April 3, 2012 at 2:21 am

    a little late, but i’m excited to try to stay on top of this! i’m notorious for starting something, but fizzling out…here goes nothing!

  479. Mandy F. April 3, 2012 at 2:36 am

    I started this yesterday! I love taking photos and can’t wait to take place in this photo challenge! Hopefully I’ll remember each day! Photos are a huge part of my life!

  480. jo April 3, 2012 at 2:48 am

    I’m in, loved March – all set for April :)

  483. Danielle Ericsson April 3, 2012 at 2:21 pm

    My smile….makes me smile

  484. Emily Haven April 3, 2012 at 3:50 pm

    this sounds like loads of fun, I am starting a couple days behind so is that still ok? Can I just tweet my images? Or do you need to have them on Facebook?

  485. Stacy April 3, 2012 at 4:40 pm

    I’m just seeing this a couple of days late, but I’m totally addicted to both Instagram and Paper Coterie, so I am SO IN! Off to take my first picture right now…

  486. Tina April 3, 2012 at 5:08 pm

    I don’t know if I can do it every day *g* but I’d love to particpate. I bought one of the journals from PC and it’s so nice to see that there’s still some elegance and charm and beauty left. (I admit it, I’m old-fashioned).

  487. Judit April 3, 2012 at 8:43 pm

    Is it okay, if we use our website to share this photochallenge? http://photo.vsza.hu/april_photo_challenge_2012

  488. Shell Merrill April 3, 2012 at 10:54 pm

    I am totally doing it this month! We just got Instagram for Android!! Woohoo!

  492. krista April 4, 2012 at 1:51 pm

    I have made it to day three so far so I’m thinking I’m good to go. I’m ready for this challenge. Love the idea of capturing “my life” in photos.

  493. Danielle Ericsson April 4, 2012 at 4:00 pm

    Okay…made it to day 4! Yay!

  495. Liz April 4, 2012 at 4:55 pm

  502. Sara April 5, 2012 at 12:39 pm

    What a great challenge! I’m sure you’ll find out lots about your readers/followers/fans! I Love this idea and will be taking on the challenge! Who knows, perhaps I’ll discover more about myself along the way!

  503. Leanne April 5, 2012 at 1:10 pm

    I love this idea! I am a big believer in the power of people connecting. I like to think of each person as a quilt; each square is a unique even which we share with the world… as we live our lives and share our stories. There’s power in sharing who we are through our stories. This April photo challenge is a pictorial way to stitch and show our quilts… to connect! Love it!

    • Leanne April 5, 2012 at 1:32 pm

      I’m in… even though I just saw this on day five. Is it okay to join the project even though it’s already started?

  504. Kimberly W. April 5, 2012 at 1:18 pm

    Sounds like fun! I am a mommy to two wonderful kiddos, who is constantly searching for more time in the day! These prompts are so helpful! Thanks!

  505. Julie April 5, 2012 at 2:13 pm

    Thanks, friends! I look forward to connecting in all sorts of ways! Gratefully, Julie

  506. Kim April 5, 2012 at 3:09 pm

    I did not get any confirmation email after I signed up. Should I have, or does it come later?

    • papercoterie April 5, 2012 at 4:41 pm

      That will come today or tomorrow.

      • Kim April 5, 2012 at 9:12 pm

        Thank you! I am excited for this photo challenge!

  507. Robin April 5, 2012 at 6:20 pm

    Always worth trying!

  508. Crissy April 6, 2012 at 3:38 pm

  515. maria April 9, 2012 at 8:10 pm

    I’m a very dissatisfied customer, I went on this site on the recommendation of Hip 2 Save. I ordered and when I placed my order, I realized I made a mistake. I emailed them and they responded once saying I couldn’t go back and change it but that I they needed to cancel the order. That was the problem. The problem is STILL getting them to cancel the order. They never pickup there customer service phone no matter what time you call. They don’t respond to emails except for the autoreply. Im so frustrated. I called my back to request a fraud charge. Since there was no answer, response, correction or probelm solving of any kind. To top things off I just got an email saying my old order which supposedly was supposed t be CANCELED its in route to my house. So now I have to call the Attorney Generals.. WOrst CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER> If you order from this company make sure you dont make a mistake or you’ll end up eating it anyway.

  516. Kokabella April 10, 2012 at 11:59 am

    I’ve JUST discovered your April Photo Challenge and of course I MUST take part! I’m playing catch up starting TODAY! I’ll tweet the hash tag… thanks for this great idea! – @Kokabella
