June Blog Hop!

Hi everyone and welcome to our June Blog Hop! As you may have read in our previous post,  this is going to be our final hop. It has been such a fun year for us and can't thank you all enough for supporting us and providing us with amazing inspiration. Most importantly, thank you to Dawn from Wplus9 for all of her support and letting us run this challenge!

This month's hop is different in that we are giving everyone ONE WEEK to play along, and the theme is ANYTHING GOES, as long as you include some Wplus9 goodies on your project.

Here's what our team came up with for you this month:

Anya

Erin

Gayatri

Maureen

Suzanne

Our amazing guest designer this month is Maria F. We are so happy to have her. I love what she has done here!

One lucky random winner will receive a $25 gift card to Wplus9, donated by Dawn Woleslagle, from Wplus9 Design Studio LLC.

June Blog Hop...Our Last Hop

Hi friends! Thanks for checking in with us. This month's preview comes with a little bit of sad news, in that we've decided that this month's hop will be our last hop, marking one full year of challenges. This was a difficult choice to make, and I thank each and every one of you who has supported us along the way, especially all of the Inspiration Team members: Anya, Erin, Gayatri, Maureen and former member Christina. I truly hope that everyone will play along with Dawn's Monday Mood Board each and every week, and I certainly hope to be play along more there myself! I love seeing your fabulous creations using Wplus9, and look forward to seeing more!

We've switched it up a little bit this month with a broad theme and full week to hop. The theme is:

ANYTHING GOES

And because I will be away and can't really assume that internet service will be reliable where I am going, we are going to start this month's hop on JUNE 13 at 10am, and it will run for a full week through JUNE 20. Our guest for this hop is the lovely Maria F... and of course, there's still a chance to win a gift certificate to Wplus9!

See you soon!

March Hop Preview, a Farewell, and some Hello's

Hey there, everyone!

March is here and we are ready for our next blog hop! I chose a beautiful flower photo this month; it's full of color, and even better is the watercolor painting in the background! I found it on Erin After After:

The hop will begin on March 9th at 10am EST. At that time, we will include some projects from our Inspiration Team and last month's winner of our Guest Designer Spot, Michelle Leone, to help get you started. It's also a great chance to win a gift certificate to Wplus9!

We also have some team announcements to make:

We are so very sad to announce that our beloved team member, Christina MacLaren, has decided to step down from our team to focus on other things. *sniffle.* We all love you, Christina, and will miss you and your inspirational cards! ALL THE BEST & HUGS to you, friend!

At the same time, we are super excited to announce that the marvelous Erin Taylor and Maureen Merritt have joined our team! I am just tickled pink to announce them as new members, as their cards are always so fabulous and I know how much they Wplus9, too. We're all dying to see what they come up for this month's hop!

So, do you have any ideas for your project yet? Please share them with us if you like - I'd love to hear them!

See you in a few days!
