She is looking for several new design team members and asked those crafters, who were interested, to post a BRAND NEW project that shows your own personal style, and link it to Jinger's blog, as well as The Scrapbooking Queen's blog. There are several spots to fill and I would be honored to be one of them.

“Color Me Lucky!” Let’s Get Scrappy!

March 3rd, 2012

Another Sunday means another fun challenge at Amanda's Crafts and More! This week, the challenge is to use GREEN on your layout.

Here is the page I created for this challenge:

I don't often use green on my layouts. I guess it isn't a color that I often think of using. So, for this layout, I found some paper that had green and pink. I also had a card that a friend had sent me a while ago that I saved because I thought the images were adorable on it. I grabbed that card, cut out the images and the words, and used it on the layout. I just love the bear on it!

This month, our sponsor is:

Get some GREEN paper and have fun Getting Scrappy!
