Cybercrop weekend

A cybercrop has been orgainized at Scrappy Accents for the 16th to the 18th April. I'm hoping for a good turnout during that weekend and I guarantee there'll be something to suit everyone.

Some Scrappy changes.

Well, over at the Scrappy Accents ning group, there has been a bit of a change.

It's with great sadness that Theresa has had to step down as the manager of the site and has handed the baton to me, jaine. She remains owner and an active member and I seriously hope she'll be showing us what she's doing from time to time. She's done a fantastic job up to now and I know you're with me when I say thank you and good luck.

There's still time to join in the challenge for March and there'll be a new challenge coming up in April.

Coming up, I'll be orgainizing a cybercrop weekend in April with challenges, games and maybe a tutorial or two.

So keep watching for some new stuff and I'll see you soon.

JANUARY SPOTLIGHT WINNER IS ... MICA!!

Here is a little about Mica and her layout for the month of January!

Hi. My name is Mica. I live in Mississippi with my husband of almost 20 years and we have a 15-year-old daughter. I've been enjoying scrapbooking for about 3 years now. I love working with sketches. They eliminate a great deal of my frustration when scrapping and allow my layouts to be versatile. I was looking for some sketch sites to join this year and I found this friendly community. I am so happy to be a part of it :):)

To see more of Mica's work, visit her blog at Scrapbookedmoments.blogspot.com

To be in the spot light for February
be the first to post with this months sketch!!!

Later!
