Winner and Rise and Shine!

Our random heritage winner is none other than Linda H.! Congrats on a great LO Linda!!

And remember I promised a random winner a random prize. Well how does this suit you!? The brand new Cosmo Cricket "Early bird" collection kit and a fun spinner card to boot! Have fun with your prize Linda!

Lastly, the new kit "Rise and Shine went up for sale on Friday and has been flying out the door. I only have 3 or 4 left, so if you are eying it I would head over to the store and pick it up pronto! I am doing a promo this weekend only also. If you buy any kit you get a free sheet of KI lace card stock. If you buy 2 kits (or spend over $75), then you get 3 free sheets! I still have Penny Arcade, Nightingale and PB add ons left!

Heritage Challenge

So let's take a stroll down memory lane and do a heritage photo LO for the next challenge! The only requirement of this challenge is that your photo be at least 25 years old. That's it! So get scouring through those shoe boxes, or call your mom or dad for some of those great old family shots that have yet to be scrapped! The DT came up with some *AMAZING* inspo for you his time...{happy sigh}.
So this challenge will run from today through the 22nd. I will be pulling a random winner for a random prize, so get your entries in!! Also, most of these DT LO's were done with the Penny Arcade kit (see link to the right), which is SOOO perfect for any vintage inspired scrapping you are wanting to do. So check it out if you haven't already.
Have fun with this one and remember to link up your work so we can get the slide show up and running!

Let's do our "makeup" challenge.

This weeks challenge comes from Michelle Lanning...here's what she has in store for us!
Hey there gals! A new week means a new challenge! We decided to mix it up and go a bit "more challenging" with make-up! I found various Spring inspired make-up photos but this one just stood out -- with all the blues, greens, and the pop of pink!
We can't wait to see what you create!

So have fun with this one!! It's running from today through May 8th. And don't forget to link your work so we can all check it out. :)
Here is what the Design Team created.

Spring Slide

YAY, It's SPRING Challenge!

Spring, a time of renewal. And one of my favorite times of the year! The birds are singing, the leaves are coming in on the trees, the temps are warming up, and the flowers are blooming...deep, cleansing breath! :)
So let's celebrate the season with a very simple challenge. Just use the word SPRING in the title of your LO! That's it. Simple right?! So, this challenge is running from today through April 24th. Be sure to upload your link in the comments section so we can add your work to our slide show!
Happy Spring Everyone! And here are the DT examples of how to use Spring in your title, and no duplicates...wow!

Paul Frank Ad Challenge

After a few very hectic weeks I found myself at the nail salon, basking in the relaxation of my pedicure, and flipping through a new issue of Domino. And when I came across this ad for Paul Frank children's clothing I knew I had to turn this into a challenge. Admittedly, the kid looks a little strange (where did his neck go?), but I liked the over all inspiration this gave me. Doodles, scallops, kids = FUN!
So use this as your inspiration for the next 2 weeks! You can see the DT went all over the place with this. And how fab is that?! When people find the difference in the same thing...I love these kind of challenges. They really are my favorite! So go ahead and get your project done and linked up over here. I will be giving away a GC this time around! The random winner will get $10 to the store for your next purchase. So add as many as you want before the deadline of 4/10!
PS...I'm loving the 80's music, so I think I'll stick with that for awhile. Have fun!
