Its time to start hopping....

Yes that's right...its time to start hopping!!

Are you searching for a way to spend your weekend?? Then look no further.....

Scrapbook Challenges is running the NSD blog hop this weekend and there is inspiration a plenty and some very yummy prizes up for grabs.

The blog hop is starting off with Pamela, and by following all the links you will reach the final destination of Brynn's blog.
(in total there is 20 blogs to hop to)

Starting off with this 12x12 sketch by the ever so talented Pamela its sure to get your "MOJO" happening.

Or if you are looking for the right sketch to complete a double 12x12 then feel free to set yourself the challenge and have a go.


Below is my layout based on the single 12x12 sketch. I have had these pics printed for some time, but needed a sketch that would allow me to use all 3 pics to tell the story. Thanks to Pamela and her creative sketch....tah dah I finally scrapped them.

So what else is in store for all you scrappy people....

Well take a look at the very yummy prizes up for grabs.

For simply leaving a comment on ALL the blogs on this hop, you will be entered into the draw to win this lovely April Scarlet Lime kit. I would soooo love this kit in my stash!!!



And for having a go at the sketch and then loading it into the gallery at Scrapbook Challenges, you could win this ever soooo yummy Fancy Pants kit.

But wait....there's more!!

For simply joining Scrapbook Challenges you have the chance to win these stunning flower packs by Prima.
And for inviting all your scrapping friends to join Scrapbook Challenges you also go into the draw for some more flower packs by Prima.

And now to announce my grand news
Drum roll please.....

I have joined the Design Team at Scrapbook Challenges. Yes I have plunged back into the Design Team world and am really looking forward to this new venture/chapter in my scrapping life. Becoming a Design Team member gives me the opportunity of working along side a group of very talented people and the opportunity to explore many new challenges.

So what are you waiting for....Come on over and join in the fun of great challenges and show us all what you have to offer as a Scrapbook Challenges member.

So where to now......

Hop on over to Annie's blog where inspiration is a plenty and the hopping continues!!

Until next time, take care of you and happy hopping.
