If at first you don't succeed...

...just keep trying eventually it pays off, am I talking jibberish, hope not, I'll explain. I decided a few months ago to start applying for positions on design teams , not everyone I saw but those I thought I'd enjoy being on and it finally paid off. I am so excited and happy to say I am a design team member with Creative craft challenges. I found out on friday and am finally coming back down to earth, all the girls seem really nice and there are 3 other newbies on the team too as far as I know, who I'm looking forward to getting to know too over the next few weeks . It would be great if you popped over to the Creative craft challenge site so you could meet them too.

Whilst there you could join in with our latest challenge, it does seem funny typing that but I really look forward to getting use to saying it. It's called 'stampin up' and you can probably guess you need to stamp something. We have a fab sponser too, The Crafty pad and we got some cute cupcake images to play with. Why not pop over to the Creative craft challenge site and join in.

I used some of the cherry cupcake decoupage images and made them into a giant stand alone cupcake. I coloured them with promarkers and added some stickles for extra sparkle. I topped it off with a stamped 'thankyou' which I stamped with promarker and added clear embossing powder to. Inside is another of the crafty pad digi's , it makes a fab verse, and I think would make the recipient feel really special, what do you think?

If you pop over to the Creative craft challenge you will see all the other fab ideas for projects the team designers came up with for your inspiration, so hop over be inspired, give them some hugs with comments and join in.

I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:-

Cowgirl challenge- anything goes

Cupcake craft challenge-strawberries and cream ( I used the colour combo as I don't have a strawberry I used a cherry)

Lexi's challenge-something old(my fancy cutting scissor were on of the first crafty things I had bought for me )
