SPCC Design Team, Baby!!!!!!!

I am soooooo EXCITED!!!!! I finally get to tell you...

I MADE THE SPCC SCRAPBOOK DESIGN TEAM!!!!!

For those of you who are unfamiliar, SPCC stands for Scrapmaster's Paradise Color Combos. The Scrapmaster is Samantha who is just about the most sparkling, sweet, energetic person I've ever seen. The girl does not stop! She started the SPCC challenge site recently and it has taken off in leaps and bounds!

Let me tell you a little about it...

SPCC Challenges are posted every Monday. The challenge consists of a color combo of usually 3 - 4 colors. All you need to do is incorporate those colors into your crafty creation...it can be a card, layout, altered item, anything you can think up! (You'll note that the colors are usually listed with Stampin' Up! colors. Don't worry! You can use any comparable colors.)

Once you're done, come back to the SPCC site and link up your creation to the Mr. Linky widget. Challenge submissions are due by the following Sunday. A winner and SP Top Five will be posted the next Monday. You'll get a cool SPCC badge to display on your blog like this:

AND did I mention, each week there are AMAZING PRIZES to be won??

For example, this week's color combo is:

AND the winning submission will receive this EXCELLENT prize pack from this week's sponsor ELMER'S CRAFTERS:

This includes one gold metallic and one silver metallic Painters Marker, medium tip. These are permanent and can be used on almost any surface. Also, there's one Elmer's Craft Bond Scrapbook Glue Set. This set includes a Photo Stik (TM) glue stick, a fine tip glue stick pen, a Memory Book Glue Pen (liquid glue pen), and an Extra Strength Glue stick.


HOW COOL IS THAT??!!

In addition to the color combo challenge, each Friday there will be a little extra fun challenge called Finally Friday. This one's just for fun but isn't that why we're doing this anyway? Every week there will be a new, exciting, fun challenge posted by either Miss Sam herself, one of the DT members, a guest designer, OR EVEN YOU!! It could be anything...a sketch, a technique, a theme, ANYTHING! (I have it on good authority this coming Friday's challenge designer is going to have something really fun for you! tee hee)

In the meantime, how about trying out this week's Finally Friday challenge - it's an inspiration challenge:






You can make anything you want and use any or all of it as your inspiration. Just make sure to link your creation up to the Finally Friday Mr. Linky widget by Thursday evening so we can all get a look at your take!

And, of course, don't forget to try out this week's color combo challenge. I'm just loving those colors. I can't wait to work on this one! Just be sure to link it up to Mr. Linkey HERE.

WOW. I've been sitting on this news for a couple of days now and it's been killing me!! I am so bad with secrets! And it occurred to me I'm going to have to get over this FAST because I'm going to have to sit on my creations for the team at least a week at a time before they're revealed. I already have a fun one for you but I can't show you yet. Oh, the torture!


Anyhoo...I am so ABSOLUTELY ecstatic to have been chosen for SPCC's inaugural design team. I have a GREAT feeling about this site - it is GOING PLACES!


Be sure to hop on over to the SPCC blog and read about the other new Design Team members! What an amazingly talented group of ladies. I am so honored to be included among them. You are in for such a treat every week at SPCC!! Be sure to leave them all some love and even hop on over to check out their blogs and galleries!

Thanks for sharing in my excitement!

Hope you have an AWESOME Monday!!
