Hi all...excited to be joining the team.

I am from Johannesburg, South Africa, married and a mom. I've been scrapping since 2003. I also do quilling which I started in 2001. I showcase all my work on my blog http://whatsupwithcathy.blogspot.com/ as well as instagram https://www.instagram.com/cathquillscrap/

Hello ladies! I'm Connie and I am thrilled to be joining you this year! I come to you from Sunny Southern California, USA. I have been married for almost 22 years and have 2 grown boys and 3 cats!! I am a crazy cat lady and would love to have more! LOL!

I have been crafting my entire life! But am mostly a scrapbooker since high school! You can find me hanging out at Miss Kate Cuttables, I have been on her Design team for about 4 years and love it! Some of you may also have seen me around the Paper Playful Registry.

Vicki

Midway Through the month:

by Tasmanian photographer Katy Morgan

Those colours are just so splendid!

How are you going with Bright and Cheerful?

There are so many gorgeous entries so far - obviously this one has hit a nerve.

Remember - it does not have to be a Valentines card/gift

Just as long as it is Bright and Cheerful and the TWIST is to be a bit Arty!

It also does not have to be a card - as long as there is no stamp involved.

There will be a prize for this month

$15 Gift Voucher
(via PayPal or direct to on-line store, whichever suits)

There are four pieces of inspiration at this point in the month

Look at that fold - and she made it with a baby strapped to her!!!

Second Week of Challenge#86: Simply Bright and Cheerful....

The TWIST for this is remember ........ Arty Creations Appreciated

For example, I love this one from Google Images

and this one

..or this one...

...or this...

This is just my taste - the rest of the team probably have other ideas about what is ARTY...

It is very personal.

However, the twist does not have to be something to avoid - it can be something to embrace!

Unleash your inner artist!

You don't have to follow the TWIST to enter the challenge

BUT

you have a greater chance of winning the DT's approval if you do!

The Random Number prize will still apply

to anyone who follows the theme and does not use stamps in their creation -

and for this month it is:

A $15 Gift Voucher
(via PayPal or direct to on-line store, whichever suits)

It is usual at this time to announce the winner(s) from last month but as we have already done that for December, we will move on to the DT's inspiration.

The Design Team have created again for your enjoyment and this time we will introduce several more new members:

Leslie

I'm definitely what one could consider a crafting junkie! I love making cards (I'm a rubber girl but do dabble in digis), 3-D projects- especially paper shoes and gift bags, mixed media projects, altering an occasional tin and box, as well as beading and making jewelry occasionally when I find the time! Fortunately, hubby is very supportive! Life is good! :D

Deanne returns for another year of greatness!

Susan

Mini Gift Bag with Tag for money or gift card or small present

and another newbie

Keti

I enjoy creating. Since I have my corner in my room in a new apartment, I spend a lot of spare time at the table and try new things. I'm near CAS style. From April 2017, I am also a Sizzix promoter. I really enjoy this. I am a lawyer in the profession, but I hope that most of this will not count as a minus ;-) You can also monitor my creative projects at the FB.
