Wall Street. Paper is cheap! When trying to save money, making your patterned paper go the extra mile can help you save big, but we all still want that dimension and/or texture that usually comes from the more expensive elements. Show me your pages where you have used patterned paper to create dimensional elements.

Daily Drive. Rise and Shine! Do you have a morning routine that you (or your family) do every morning? Do you start the morning coffee, make your children breakfast and then take your furry friend outside for a quick walk? Perhaps you hit that snooze alarm two times before prying yourself out of the bed or do you wake up wide awake, singing praises to the day? Please share layouts reflecting your morning routine with us!

Open Road. True Confessions! Scrap a confession...think guilty pleasures, a secret side of yourself, the most outrageous thing you have done, a job you would love to have!

Technique Turn: Three stamps are better than one! Get your image or background stamps out and choose three that will work together. Think scene, backgrounds, embellishments or paper piece one stamp with another. You decide how to combine three to create one outstanding card or scrapbook page. Please no individual word stamps, we want to see the creative combination of your image or background stamps.

Feeling Misty. We've seen them used on layouts and altered projects but we want to see how YOU showcase mists and inks on a small canvas. Send in your cards using mists. You can use masks, maybe mist an embellishment. Be sure to include design notes on how you used mists on your card!

Ribbon. Ribbon adds a fun texture to all of our projects. We want to see creative ways you use ribbon on your cards.

Being Transparent. Feeling like people are seeing right through you lately? No? Well, we'd like people to see right through your cards! Use a clear media such as acrylic or transparencies. Get creative - cut them, ink them, use it as a base. Whatever you do we want to see them!
