Laine's Saturday's Inspiration - March 28th

Hi everyone,

Laine here with my Saturday inspiration project.

I came across this hot plate holder at a yard sale and just had to buy it.  I also knew exactly how I wanted to alter it.   

The Fitztown image I have used is called Flower 5.

For all the details for this altered project head over to my blog.

My online name is HeatherM.  I’m a SAHM of two kids that are 6 and 10.  I started coloring with markers a little over two years ago.  I find that my 6yo daughter influences my coloring and most of my brighter color combinations were inspired by her.  I’ve also dabbled in crafts ranging from stained glass and bead making to Ukrainian Pysanky (Ukrainian eggs) to art journaling with my kids.

March #69 - Use Green

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
HI everyone, Cathie here with the new Monthly Challenge for March.
 we had some great entries for our Have a Heart challenge last month it was fantastic.

All the challenge rules for our new format are on the right or on the tab above.

So half the world this month are seeing the promise of spring and the other half like myself in Australia are looking at the slow cool down after Summer and the promise of Autumn (Fall). Of course lets not forget the celebrations this month for the patron saint of Ireland - Saint Patrick's Day.
  so with that in mind March's theme is anything goes with the Optional Twist of
 Use Some Green
This could be anywhere, on an embellishment, your card base or as an accent colour, we don't mind as long as its on there.
Of course only a Fitztown image can win you the big prize but we still love seeing all the other images out there.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Good luck everyone and let the fun begin!

Alicia Borowski
I'm a mother of 2 small precious people & a part-time worker. I started scrapbooking in 2005. I moved onto digital scrapbooking when my daughter was born in 2007 (& still do!) as it was easier, quicker & both grandparents wanted scrap pages too so it was easier to do one page digitally & email it to everyone. I needed to use my paper up so I started playing at card making. I had always admired all those beautiful coloured images (Magnolia, La La Land, CC Designs etc) so I bought a few stamps & used my pencils to start with. Pencils just didn't have the wow factor I was after so I decided to pick up my first Copic in 2011 after visiting a craft fair & self taught. My sister-in-law (Cathie Borowski who is already on your DT!) introduced me to the world of online card making challenges in late 2013 when I started my blog & have not looked back!

February #68 Winners

Welcome, bloggers! We had a fantastic turnout with 39 entries last month. If you linked up more than three times not using a Fitztown image, I am so sorry! We deleted those entries. If you've read the challenge rules, you'll read that we limit entries to THREE, but if you use Fitztown images, you can link up a total of FIVE times. That means TWO of your entries must be with a Fitztown image.

When we have less then ten entries, the team leaders pick the winner. So without further ado 

Our lucky winner is:

I
