Happy March everyone! I don't know about where you live but it seems like it came in like a roaring lion in most places in the US! So hopefully that means it will go out like a lamb. :)<br />
<br />
So as you might have guessed from the title of this post there's going to be some changes on the <a href="http://creativeinspiration.activeboard.com/" target="_blank">Creative Inspirations Forum</a>. We're going to have fewer challenges but we'll still be doing the monthly mini crop and we'll still have both card and layout sketch challenges. The sketches will generally be posted together and you will have the option of doing one or both challenges. And with fewer daily challenges that will give you more time to participate if you haven't been able to before!<br />
<br />
PLUS..... Starting April 7th we're going to have a BIG SPRING THEMED BLOG HOP!!! I know these ladies have some AMAZING projects to share with you so be sure not to miss that! <br />
<br />
So for today, there isn't a project to share. And there will probably be only one or two blog posts per week from now on. BUT you'll get to see a LOT more of the Design Team members' projects and you'll still have lots of chances to win the monthly prizes!<br />
<br />
Don't forget to mark your calendars! The March Mini Crop starts Friday, March 16th and runs until Sunday, March 25th. And this month's theme is DIE CUTS! So dust off those dies and pull out those scraps and get ready to CREATE!<br />
<br />
Happy Scrapping everyone!</div>

Have you been following along with our February Mini Crop? The theme for this month is all things RED, love, family, kids, valentines, hearts
<br />
<br />
So one of the challenges is by Joan to "create a layout, card, tag, ATC or altered project about a family member that is a superhero.<span> </span>Don't
have a family member that fits the bill ... that's ok just use a
superhero theme on your project." <br />
<br />
We've had a week so far to play and I just LOVE what Brenda B did with this challenge! Here's her Superhero layout<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YasxOppFZo8/Wo-OSrYCHWI/AAAAAAAALuI/JMGNX0sCx3ky0C9eKjLbCPOlL1b_n4kOwCLcBGAs/s1600/Batmen%2521.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="763" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YasxOppFZo8/Wo-OSrYCHWI/AAAAAAAALuI/JMGNX0sCx3ky0C9eKjLbCPOlL1b_n4kOwCLcBGAs/s320/Batmen%2521.jpg" width="317" /></a></div>
Isn't this just ADORABLE??!!<br />
<br />
So who's YOUR Superhero? Want to play along? Here's the link to this challenge - <a href="http://creativeinspiration.activeboard.com/t64336122/february-mini-crop-superheros/" target="_blank">Superhero Mini Crop Challenge</a>. You have till Sunday, February 25th to

This week I chose Design Team Member Phillis's challenge to use your scraps for a background. Here's her challenge in the forum - <a href="http://creativeinspiration.activeboard.com/t64373444/ttt-february-13/" target="_blank">TTT February 13</a><br />
<br />
"Do you have a lot of scraps? How do you use them up?<br />I used lots
of my scraps to create my background. I cut them in long strips. Most
of the strips are thin while a few were wider. I then put then on my
paper to create my background. This also lets me use both sides of my
double sided paper.<br />
Here is what I created:"<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

"My challenge to you is to use your scraps to create your background.
You can use strips like I did or circles or squares or whatever design
you want, as long as you are using scraps. You have until the end of
the month to enter this challenge. Just <a href="http://creativeinspiration.activeboard.com/t64373444/ttt-february-13/" target="_blank">share your creation here."</a><br />
<br />
I don't know about you but I have a LOT of scraps and this is an AWESOME way to use them! So what about you? Even if you only have a few you could still create a background with them! Make a layout, card, tag or something else! Show us what you can do with YOUR scraps!<br />
<br />
Happy Scrapping! </div>

Today we have a fun sketch for you to play with! <br />

And here's Design Team Member Brenda's take on the sketch... Brenda says <span style="font-size: small;">"<span style="font-family: "comic sans ms", sans-serif;">I
was looking for a photo for the Monday sketch when I come across the
one I have used. I know it's a Christmas photo but I couldn't resist
doing it. I loved my mums knitting and we were all made something
different in these cute men. This one was made for my youngest son
Harley. I hope you like my take on the sketch and happy crafting. xxx"</span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Today's featured challenge comes from Guest DT Member Jules Eickmeyer. For the Wednesday 2/7 Stash challenge she encourages us to "pull from your flower and lace/ribbon stash and
create a card, layout or altered object with soft feminine colors."<br />
<br />
And here's her beautiful example -<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IhqbFzytQNI/WnzOnHIwmHI/AAAAAAAALOs/fNCIVmAFBSY5cl3uVTBkerGZFm4vgGV-gCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_1577_zpsq4te0h40.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1016" data-original-width="1024" height="317" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IhqbFzytQNI/WnzOnHIwmHI/AAAAAAAALOs/fNCIVmAFBSY5cl3uVTBkerGZFm4vgGV-gCLcBGAs/s320/IMG_1577_zpsq4te0h40.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
I for one LOVE doing lacy, frilly, flowery challenges but having mostly boys in my family it's hard sometimes. So I'm excited to try this challenge! <br />
<br />
How about you? Do you need to pull out your girlie side and stash? Create your own layout, card or other project and share it with us in the forum. Here's the link to the challenge - <a href="http://creativeinspiration.activeboard.com/t64356082/wednesday-stash-27/" target="_blank">Wednesday 2/7 Stash Challenge</a><br />
<br />
Can't wait to see what YOU create! Happy Scrapping!<br />

We would like to welcome Jackie Plank to the Creative Inspiration Design Team! <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pjiUCVOl1sk/WjdlyvkAvkI/AAAAAAAAJz8/K7dFy6xMnW4P9fHUEv5BpbT0OU5BC9m6gCLcBGAs/s1600/Jackie.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="251" data-original-width="300" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pjiUCVOl1sk/WjdlyvkAvkI/AAAAAAAAJz8/K7dFy6xMnW4P9fHUEv5BpbT0OU5BC9m6gCLcBGAs/s1600/Jackie.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt;">
<span style="color: #1a1a14; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;">My name is Jackie and I have been scrapping for about 14 years.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt;">
<span style="color: #1a1a14; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;">I
live in a little town in Ontario called Wallaceburg, with my husband of
45 years. We are owned and operated by Jack our 13 year old Shih Tzu,
Oliver a 4 year old male tabby, and Princess our grey female uncertain
age tabby. All our animals are rescue animals and they are our world.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt;">
<span style="color: #1a1a14; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;">We
have one daughter who has given us a wonderful son-in-law, and five
fabulous grand-children… with a grand daughter-in-law in the near
future.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt;">
<span style="color: #1a1a14; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;">I
scrapbook for my BFF's daughter, she has 3 children although one of
them is an adult now… but I still have many of his photos when he was
much younger to scrap. I also scrap for my niece who has two little
boys. So I have plenty of photos to scrap has they both continue to
take photos has does my daughter. I also still take photos of my fur
babies so it is going to be many many years before I run out of photos.
LOL</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt;">
<span style="color: #1a1a14; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;">My
scrapbooking style changes with each layout and each card. I am one of
those people who can't stand to see anything stay the same. Everything
has to be different... same thing goes for my home, I am always
changing things around. LOL</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt;">
<span style="color: #1a1a14; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;">I
love to use different medias, stencils, nothing is safe around me. My
husband has started locking his tool box because he caught me going
through it to see if I could find something interesting to use. (I stole
a sheet of his sandpaper) </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt;">
<span style="color: #1a1a14; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;">I can go plain or I can go heavily loaded. I love trying new things too.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt;">
<span style="color: #1a1a14; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;">The one thing I can't do, is to <a href="http://creativeinspiration.activeboard.com/m2350772/message/?threadID=8504409">start</a> a
layout without a sketch. Sometimes I go by the sketch exactly other
times by the time I am done you would never know it was the same sketch.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt;">
<span style="color: #1a1a14; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;">I am happy to be a part of this DT and look forward to the next 6 months. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt;">
<span style="color: #1a1a14; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;"> We look forward to having you join us and to playing along with your challenges! </span></div>

Well everyone, Hanukkah is in full swing. Christmas is only 10 days away. Which also means all the other holidays of this season begin soon as well! Are you ready? Do you still need to create some gift card holders or some last minute holiday cards? Or maybe (like me) you have family members with birthdays between now and the end of the year... Or possibly you just need to take a little time for yourself to just be creative! I know it's quite good mental therapy for me!<br />
<br />
Whatever it is you need, the Creative Inspiration Mini Crop can help! From today until 11:59 PM Eastern time on December 24 (just before Santa arrives in the USA and Canada) you will have the opportunity to play along with the Design Team members who have created simple, easy challenges. They are designed for you to be able to complete several projects in the time allotted. So even if you're busier than Santa and his Elves are right now, you can still squeeze these projects into your time schedule!<br />
<br />
Be sure to sign up and become a member - Tell the Admin that you were sent via the blog! And then check out all the challenges for the month here in the <a href="http://creativeinspiration.activeboard.com/" target="_blank">Creative Inspiration Forum</a>. Even though the Mini Crop has begun, you can still complete the regular monthly challenges! Their deadline is 11:59 PM on December 31 - Just before Midnight on New Year's Eve! :) <br />
<br />
We wish all of you and yours the happiest of holiday seasons! Happy Scrapping!</div>

<br />
And here's Bev's Sunday Card Sketch for December 10th... <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-iFME2d_KcDc/Wi4kkQknl2I/AAAAAAAAJt8/YMJiutK61Kg7jVRdW4Knnpox_pL56_4bwCLcBGAs/s1600/18119357_10155297163781133_275700909710662919_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="685" data-original-width="960" height="228" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-iFME2d_KcDc/Wi4kkQknl2I/AAAAAAAAJt8/YMJiutK61Kg7jVRdW4Knnpox_pL56_4bwCLcBGAs/s320/18119357_10155297163781133_275700909710662919_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
And here's her version of the sketch...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-qe3m7rCVpak/Wi4kjtoGW_I/AAAAAAAAJuE/fYtDs4MEXrwrcVOkMV4IoPtyhiXwk6-MgCEwYBhgL/s1600/24862250_10156043631086133_9115294435673329648_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="960" height="213" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-qe3m7rCVpak/Wi4kjtoGW_I/AAAAAAAAJuE/fYtDs4MEXrwrcVOkMV4IoPtyhiXwk6-MgCEwYBhgL/s320/24862250_10156043631086133_9115294435673329648_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
I just LOVE the colors she used on her card!<br />
<br />
And here's the Monday December 11 Layout Sketch again by Bev...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BqFWDIw3-D4/Wi4lTMyeLdI/AAAAAAAAJuU/UfRyYyBmrnQXSlRJO0oIb5Q-gXBSr04oQCLcBGAs/s1600/CI%2BNovemberr%2B11%2Bsketch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="768" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BqFWDIw3-D4/Wi4lTMyeLdI/AAAAAAAAJuU/UfRyYyBmrnQXSlRJO0oIb5Q-gXBSr04oQCLcBGAs/s320/CI%2BNovemberr%2B11%2Bsketch.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
And here is Design Team Member Lisa's version of Bev's sketch...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Look at all that white space and yet the page looks full! I just LOVE this!<br />
<br />

<br />
And finally we have our weekly sketches. First is the December 3 Card Sketch by our fearless and awesome leader Bev Code.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MBuKLsM3TmE/WiT3J6kMffI/AAAAAAAAJWY/NsgsyKSvce4viQcSRr9auZFa_mKAE7-rwCLcBGAs/s1600/18119060_10155297162761133_6665883371872081382_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="685" data-original-width="960" height="228" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MBuKLsM3TmE/WiT3J6kMffI/AAAAAAAAJWY/NsgsyKSvce4viQcSRr9auZFa_mKAE7-rwCLcBGAs/s320/18119060_10155297162761133_6665883371872081382_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
And here is Linda's version of the sketch. She said she chose to make a birthday card, but this would easily become a Christmas or Holiday card by changing the butterflies to flowers or holiday items! <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fEMlowNkjjI/WiT3JyAqmQI/AAAAAAAAJWc/35g_yV0xRXYDurCPkDd75rGj-SLE-Ia7ACLcBGAs/s1600/card%2Bpink%2Bwith%2Bgrn%2Band%2B3%2Bbutterflies.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="445" data-original-width="600" height="237" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fEMlowNkjjI/WiT3JyAqmQI/AAAAAAAAJWc/35g_yV0xRXYDurCPkDd75rGj-SLE-Ia7ACLcBGAs/s320/card%2Bpink%2Bwith%2Bgrn%2Band%2B3%2Bbutterflies.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>

Next is Guest Design Team Member Helen Nile's card version of the sketch. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cYA5XhRlCdU/WiT3_5yJQEI/AAAAAAAAJW0/EM6OgsnEH6Ub25KkeZxfvAnglyg4GuA-wCEwYBhgL/s1600/Helen%2BNile.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="713" data-original-width="740" height="308" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cYA5XhRlCdU/WiT3_5yJQEI/AAAAAAAAJW0/EM6OgsnEH6Ub25KkeZxfvAnglyg4GuA-wCEwYBhgL/s320/Helen%2BNile.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
