Happy Spring Break

The HMITM team is taking a little break this week. We'll be back next week with a new challenge!

Winner for Challenge #77

I had such a hard time picking my favorite of out of all the awesome pages from this challenge, but in the end, I chose this one, by Jill (aka Fevvers). Sweet photos, wonderful design, lovely groupings of all the diferent elements, and a beautiful color palette made this one so special:

Challenge 78 - 737-500

Last weekend I went on an airplane, the 737-500, and thought I would use that number as inspiration for this week's challenge.

7 - rubons
3 - pictures
7 - stickers
5 - flowers
0 - use no buttons
0 - use no ribbon

I think it is fun to also limit the supplies that you use, just to be different :P
Post your layouts on the 2peas thread http://http://twopeasinabucket.kaboose.com/mb.asp?cmd=display&thread_id=2537677 and you could be eligible for a RAK!
Happy scrapping!

Winner for Challenge #75

I'm getting hungry just looking at Janet's (JanetB0601) take on the challenge - yum!

Well done Janet - please send peamail me your address so I can send you out a RAK!

Challenge #76

CHA has come and gone, and the influx of new products is making its way into our stashes. if you're like me, you're hoarding all this new product, waiting for the perfect chance to use it...then you let it sit, and discover a few months later that it's now "old" product.

well, don't let that happen. for this challenge, use up 10 new products from your stash!

have fun!

Winner for HMITM #72

I really loved everyone's layouts, and it was SO hard to choose just one, but I picked Jacynthe's wonderful page, "Une Erreur Comique."

I just love the orange and blue with the black and white, and the photo and story are priceless, plus those three circle tags add such a whimsical touch!

Challenge #73 Spring Forward

Ah, spring....

In my part of the country we are starting to see signs of spring. Trees exploding, crocus' springing, pansies blooming in planters. But, I know my friends in Cleveland just got 22 inches of snow. So obviously not all weather across the country is cooperating as nicely as Seattle weather. But anyway lets celebrate Spring this day after Daylight Savings.

Add 25 flowers to your layout and upload it to 2peas before next Monday. I'll pick one and send out a RAK next week.
