New CC March Kit and DT News posted!

Okay... so today I got my mega-order from Coordinates Collections. I do mean mega! I took advantage of the Leap Year sale and caught some of the kits that they had from last fall I didn't have because I hadn't joined the community yet... I just couldn't wait to dig out everything and start playing!

For the March KOTM, I picked the one called "Around the Block." At first, I was hesitant that I could really do anything with it because the kit colors are brown, blue, and green. But, I was bound and determined to do a page tonight worth posting and viola! It's called Soakin' Silly and it is done almost entirely using the kit. {The only things not part of the kit are the white paper(CTMH), pictures(from my SIL Dee), ink(CTMH), and pens(Slickwriters)!} I adore this page. I do admit I went a little crazy with the Stickles... great product to jazz up the page! I just wanted to put my "water drops" everywhere: around the circle paper and journaling block (Dude Designs), in the chipboard flourishes and squiggles (Midnight Oil), on the really awesome vinyl thicker title (American Crafts)... The only that didn't get treated is the Lava paper (Imaginations Project) that I cut out and backed the right side picture strip with. Maybe I'll go back and add some more... :) I'm soooo hooked!

Also - today was the big announcement about the 2008 Design Team at the Scrapbook Zone...

I am super excited to work with Sandi and Stacy as their styles are VERY different from mine. I can't wait to get to know these ladies over the next year and grow together as artists... I just can't even express how excited I am... Yippee!! (As Annde would say...)
