Of course, I’m doing it again this year. 😉 I have a few weeks to catch up, but it’s coming! 🙂

It’s Coming..!

OK, seriously.. I cannot believe I haven’t blogged about this yet!!! Shame on me!

It’s starting on Monday, Feb. 1! There will be 3 lessons each week, starting from the very basics; there will be homework (and little treats! 😉 ) to keep you on track. Hope to see you all there! 😉

Get Ready..

Our Amy Sumrall is guesting at ScrapOrchard this month.. and this means she’ll be busy designing like crazy for the whole month of February!! Actually.. she’s started already! 🙂 Check out this collab with Ziggle Designs:

Isn’t it fun and adorable? 🙂 Here’s a little card I did with it:

Amy stuff works phenomenally well with hybrid. Do you see how shiny and dimensional those hearts are?!? Well, I didn’t add anything glossy, it’s just Amy’s designs printed out on paper! 🙂

Then I couldn’t resist playing with this adorable kit by Kate Winiecki,

and since I didn’t have pictures to go with the theme, I did a no picture LO. 🙂

I also have a hybrid project to share – it was featured in the January newsletter, and I hope you’re subscribed because I made a printable freebie to make your own Valentine coupon book!

One Love – Reaching out to Haiti

| cristina

It’s here!! This amazing collab (48 designers!) is ready, and you can make a donation for Haiti by buying this incredible collaboration kit:

Click on the image to go to the store and check out all the previews – this collection is huge, and gorgeous!

If you haven’t donated to help the Haiti population yet – or even if you already have – please consider “buying” this kit. All the profits will be donated to the Bush Clinton Haiti Fund to provide immediate help.

Forty-eight designers from around the community have joined together to bring you this incredible kit with the common purpose of raising funds for Haitian aid and relief.  Our theme, “One Love”, symbolizes not only our heartfelt effort to help the people of Haiti, but also encompasses the diverse styles of all the designers involved in this project.  This kit represents the diversity of our community and shows that even though we are all different, when we come together the result is truly spectacular. 

The profits from the sale of this kit will be donated to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund.  We chose the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund not only because it embodies the spirit of One Love, but also because 100% of the donations will go to the relief and recovery efforts in Haiti and because they are working to provide both immediate relief and long-term support to the earthquake survivors.

This beautiful kit includes 114 papers, 356 elements, 3 alphabets, 6 page templates and 1 hybrid template and  16- 12 in. x 12 in. .png quick pages.

This product is only available for a limited time.

One Love Charity Collab

| cristina

Many designers are working on a collaboration kit for Haiti: all the sales will be used to bring help to the people who suffered the dreadful earthquake on Tuesday.
I don’t know the details yet, but I know this: Amy Sumrall is one of the designers and the other people who are working on the kit are also incredibly talented, and buying the kit is a good way to help.

It will come out on Friday, and I’ll let you know more as soon as I have news myself.
