Hey everybody!

Ki here.  So we have a to do list now from all of the different ideas that you guys gave us on the 150th Video Giveaway.  We decided to post it here for two reasons, 1) so you guys can see what we're working on...and 2) (the main reason) so we can track what we said we'd do.  LOL we are both a bitsy forgetful.  Now we don't really have much excuse I guess.  So the following list is what we're working on and who requested it. So check back from time to time to see what we're up to!

Clear it out Design Team Challenge

If there is one thing in the crafting world that scares me it's the dreaded scrapbook. Oh sure.. they look pretty on a coffee table or anywhere in your house. Of course there are a million and a half paper stacks available in stores. Endless options for embellishing your project. But there is something... just that little something in my mind that says "Wow... you could never do one that nice." That nasty little voice in your head that is always telling you to question projects. Whether its spawned by searching You Tube for ideas or the millions of talented scrap book specialists on blogs... it is human nature to second guess everything from your color choices to binding. Who actually understands binding? Not me... I haven't gotten that far yet in my quest for scrappy knowledge. So today, I give you a first. My very first scrapbook layout. I wanted it to look like a desk ink blotter... I don't know if I accomplished that or not. Oh well... it doesn't really matter to me. I'm just thrilled that I actually did one!

I designed this layout for the Clear it out Blog. The sponsor was creatingisfun.etsy.com. This is my very first design project for them. I can't wait for many many more! What do you think? How was my first attempt at a layout?

I have a big announcement!

Hey Guys... this is Beck again... I've got kind of a big announcement to make. Ready? Kidding, it's not that big in the crafting world. But it's big to me because I'm super excited about it. I'm designing for  Clear it out! It's another challenge site. I really like the concept of using what's in your stash. Although everyone who knows me personally will say HOLD on there little wooden puppet boy that I won't name so Disney doesn't sue me, we know you have a habit of just BUY BUY BUY! Yes.. I do. But I'm trying really hard to break that habit! Really hard! Super Hard even. I'm trying my hardest for the next few months at the very least to ONLY use what is already in my stash. Unless I really need something to finish a swap or MMVA challenge... or Design Team project... Hmm.. Okay, well I'll try to use only what's in my stash. We'll see how well that works out for me! From this day.. No let's make that Monday.. today is really early Friday morning and I saw a project from Carissa that I just have to try! Tea Cup Pin Cushion tutorial was her very first You Tube tutorial ever! I have to make this! I'm going to make one for myself and my sister for Christmas. So AFTER I go shopping for the supplies for that project... and a few swaps I have signed up for on Little Scrap of Heaven... I'll go on a very strict craft diet! Live up to the Clear it out challenge! That's it... My super big announcement. I'm so going to bed now!
