Good Sunday morning! I have been keeping a little secret. I am thrilled to tell you that Lauren at My Time Made Easy has asked me to be on her design team!!!!

She has added Dawn Easton, Stephanie Kraft and Geny Cassady as well! You can check out the entire team here<---- Seriously could there be any more talented women that I could work with? If you haven't seen the fantastic templates, stamps and yummy digital papers at Lauren's store you have to go check them out. I am so thrilled to be able to play with her stuff. These wonderful templates are so versatile and you will love what you can do with them. If it doesn't get any better, tomorrow they are doing some new sneak peeks at the April release. I can't wait to see what is in store for us.

After a full day of frustration trying to get my computers to work yesterday I am finally having success today. I am thinking I must have had connection issues even though it wasn't showing up. Here is my easel card for the challenge at the All That Scraps Challenge Blog for this week. Isn't this kitty sweet?

There are prizes involved! :) Plus there is lot's of eye candy as the challenge team rocked this week. Have a great day and enjoy the possibilities!

Swiss Pixie Kit

Christine has been at it again. She is releasing these adorable Swiss Pixies. She made us the cutest boy this time. Kellie and I had a blast showing off this set for you. You can see her creations at the ATS blog. There are 8 pixies, 6 accessories (4 big enough to sit on), 1 set of butterflies and 3 sayings. The set sells for $45 which is half off the individual stamps price.
You can purchase your set here <----------

Strawberries

Being on two design teams this year has been a dream come true for me. I have noticed that my stash of cards is piling up though. I know alot of my friends in the stamping world have Etsy shops and sell some of their excess creations. If and that is a big if, I were to start and Etsy shop, would any of you be willing to purchase my creations? I am just wondering if anyone would really want them. Haa haa. I am not looking to copy others, just looking at a way to share some of my stuff with people who might appreciate them. Your imput would be greatly appreciated. Now I can't just put up a post and not post something pretty, so I am going to share one of my Spellbinders creations from this past release of new dies. This card was made for CHA and was displayed there. I hope you like it. I picked up this fish die template and was trying to think outside of the box with it. I saw strawberries. Yummy. It is one of my favorites. :) I need to get ready for church, so I will stop by tomorrow and put up the details for you. Have a great day and enjoy the possibilities.

You can find the recipe here at the Spellbinders website. For some reason it is not letting me copy and paste. Grrrr

Christine did a fabulous job with these stamps. They are so cute and totally scream spring. I am ready for some sunshine and warmth, how about you? I had so much fun coloring this adorable image, and after I finished I airbrushed the edges, but looking at the picture you can't tell. Hmmmmmm... better use darker colors next time. This stamp and her cute lil boy bunny named Hansel will be available with the rest on Wed night! You can head on over to the ATS blog now and have a chance to win these sweet images!
