Hello fellow crafters, bloggers and scrappers,

Happy Valentine's Day! Ah, the day that celebrates "love." So as not to be left out of the party, the Just A Scrappin' DT is showcasing love in all its glory, but with a caveat...no red. You read this correctly, we are asking our followers to express their love without using red in their projects, cards or layouts! Stop by the Just A Scrappin' blog to be inspired, today!

Enjoy,

Good morning fellow crafters and scrappers,

How does the time pass so quickly? I completed this week's challenge for the Just A Scrappin' Challenge and then neglected to post. Really?

So without further ado let's get to this week's challenge. Love is in the air. With Valentine's Day around the corner, the Just A Scrappin' Design Team challenge is to create a card, layout, or project using lots of hearts. Stop by the Just A Scrappin' blog to see all the fabulous projects, cards and layouts by the design team.

Enjoy,

K

Good morning fellow scrappers and crafters,

Welcome to another week of challenges with the Just A Scrappin' DT. This week at Just A Scrappin' we are piecing together paper to make a paper quilt design. Please join us by creating a layout, card or project using this technique and do not forget to add a little embossing to your project to kick it up a notch.

My card uses 1 1/2" squares to create a paper quilt. I then stitched around the edges to complete the look. Be sure to check out the other DT members at Just A Scrappin'

Enjoy,

K

I finally had a little time to create cards for my stash, which is dwindling. I love American Crafts' Amy Tangerine paper line and finally had a chance to use it this past week. I love the way the card came together as a cohesive design. I do have those moments where what I envision in my mind is not really what I finally see when the project is complete. This card design was a nice marriage of mind and creativity. Thank you for stopping by.
