Let's Celebrate

TGIF!!! 

I am super excited it is Friday.  
Not only is it Friday but my last day before my week vacation.  
In addition to that we are moving this weekend.  
How cool is that.  
I do however feel completely unprepared.  
At least we still have our current house until the end of April so we have time to get it all done.  

So there are a few days left in this month and a few more projects to share using our March kits.  

Today our Delightful Designer Rose shares some inspiration using our March card kit.  

 ROSE


Two fabulous cards!!

April Kit Reveal and If Wishes were Horses

Good Morning!!
What a crazy two weeks.  So first I am going to share a picture of my pup. 
For my Arizona friends who may know where Wittman is that is where I had to drive to yesterday to meet my new furry BFF.  LOL!!  
For those that may not know, I will explain.....Wittman is an hour and thirty minute drive from my work.  It was hot and long.  Not only is it an hour and thirty minutes from work, that means it is about an hour and 45 from my house.  
Not looking forward to driving back there when I have to pick him up.  
 So here he is:
Isn't he cute??  
He looks so tiny but this little guy will grow to about 160-180 lbs. 
In this picture he is only one week old. 
He is a Great Dane, my dream dog.  
I have wanted one forever!!

Guest Designer

Good Morning!
I am excited today because we get to share with you our March Guest Designer.

I'd like to welcome Leah Schaeffer, winner of our February sketch challenge as Guest Designer for the month of March.  Here is a little bit about Leah.


           Hello everyone! I am so glad to be here and am looking forward to spending the month with you all! I live in the San Francisco bay area and feel this area lends itself to constant inspiration!  Between the stunning rocky coastline to the majestic waterfalls of Yosemite! My other inspiration comes  from my silly and crazy kiddos, ages 3, 7 and 8. Staying at home with them is a blessing (and a curse, LOL) and gives me time to create. I started paper crafting in 2008 and still loose sleep over the excitement of coming up with a new idea! My creations are often bright and happy and 2 of my favorite things to use are inks and my die cutting machines. My other loves in life is reading, watching movies, and going on family picnics, bike rides and hikes! 
Thanks again for having me! 
Warmly, 
Leah Schaeffer

Leah chose to work with the March Scrapbook kit and created this fun layout

Leah will be back next week to share another layout she created with our March Scrapbook kit.
