So the last WEEK has been quite painful!

You know me, I can't keep my mouth shut, especially when there is something fabulous going on! But, for the last 7 days I could not publicly say anything. =( A week ago I opened my email to find a reply to a creative team call I had applied for... It was an offer to join their team from March through August!WAHOOOOOOOOOO! I am SO excited!

They are planning an online crop, a blog hop, prizes and lots of challenges so be sure you join me at CropStop.com very soon! You'll find they have TONS of cool stuff including some exclusive items!

RAKing up Fun!

RAK... yes you heard right... there is a RAK in the works and to have it hoping a ride on the pony express to your house is fairly simple, play along! Are you up to the challenge?

Pop-DOT

For this quick challenge I would like to see your non-smiling pictures! That is right, find one of those pictures that is not the typical smiley moment and scrap it! I will be working on a pic of my DD where she is not so happy... and I'd love some inspiration!

To be in the running for t he RAK you'll need to:
1. Become a follower
2. Comment on this with a link to your LO.

I can't wait to see your creations!

Snow-tastic!

Wow, the snow this morning was pretty, and it hasn't stopped since! We are expected to get about 8" today/tonight and into tomorrow, maybe more. I love snow, and just hope that if you are out in it, especially tomorrow morning when it will be the worst icy conditions after a full night below freezing, that you are careful... more pics to come once I am home.

So, I have been really busy creating over the last week and am having a blast with the challenges over at Serendipity! They have some very talented DT members that really make me stretch and tink about my creativity! Pop on over and take a look at the gallery or some of the challenge threads. I'm Lisanj_2003 around there, Melody's, Dixie and BPM make sure you check them all out for fun, challenges and beautiful galleries!

Don't forget the Just My Sketches reveal is on Monday so you'll want to be there to see the beautiful work that team does! The crop at Dixie this weekend was a hoot! I am still creating, as those aren't all due until mid-next-week.

Off to play in the snow and maybe get some awesome shots for a few pages... stay warm dear firends!
