March Kit--DT Reveal by Brandi
I'll admit, when I first saw the colors in this kit I kinda panicked! LOL! They were so not what I would normally pick out but as you can tell they work really well with an assortment of photos.

March Kit-DT Reveal by Suzanne
Heres what I did with this months kit from Simply Obsessed. I also used the Bazzill add on.
I thought with the spring feel of the paper that it was great for Easter layouts!
For this card, I painted the butterfly brown. I thought it would help it stand out more.
Thanks for looking!

March Challenge
Good morning everyone!!! How's everyone doing?
My challenge for you this month is use a title for your page that really isn't a word. If your family is anything like mine, you use many "words" in your everyday usage that grammatically aren't even words at all. For example "chubsters" or "squeezies". "Squeezies" are what my family calls hugs.
I love doing this on my pages because it not only preserves my memories on my pages, but it preserves my kid's and family's cute and unique dialect as well!!
Hope you give it a try and I can't wait to see what words your family has made up!

Fashion Forward Scrapping!
On March 20th Spring will have sprung.. The snow will be melting in the warm sun and the flowers will begin to bloom. Spring fashions will hit your favorite clothing stores and the new CHA products will be hitting the shelves at your favorite local and online scrapbook stores!
2. One-Shouldered Tops, Dresses and Bikinis: Subtle and sexy, asymmetric shoulder-lines return for Spring 2009
3. See Through and Sheer Fabrics: From soft and feminine to straight up sexy, sheer fabrics will keep you cool and fashionable this Spring:
Fashion dictates trends (or do the trends dictate fashion?) From handbags and apparel to home decor and scrapbooking, many of the products you rush out to buy and love to hoard are inspired by the fashions that walked down the catwalk at New York Fashion week (or some other fashion show in London or Paris!).Based on this year's spring fashion forecast we can expect to see lots of fun "new" trends and the resurrection of some old ones. Butterfly motifs, sheer designs, one shouldered dresses and shirts and the jewel encrusted fabrics are all are "in"! So, watch your favorite scrapbook store for some of these influences in the next few months!
This month I challenged myself to use these new trends to inspire my scrapping. I found a blog post on FashionISing.com http://www.fashionising.com/trends/b--Womens-SpringSummer-2009-Fashion-Trends-1288.html#2009currenttrends discussing the Spring fashion trends for 2009 and I used it to inspire my work. Here is where the trends took me:
1. Butterfly Motifs: A symbol of renewal, the butterfly is a favorite motif this Spring:
2. One-Shouldered Tops, Dresses and Bikinis: Subtle and sexy, asymmetric shoulder-lines return for Spring 2009
3. See Through and Sheer Fabrics: From soft and feminine to straight up sexy, sheer fabrics will keep you cool and fashionable this Spring:
You can visit the FashionISing site for more Spring fashions to inspire your creativity! Have fun and scrap fashionably!

March kit -- DT Reveal by Brandy
Hi everyone! You guys have been SO patient with this and you will see it is totally worth it. Instead of bombarding you with all of our designs in one day, we are going to be spreading them out for you on this blog and then back in the gallery. So look forward to seeing more Sunday through Wednesday, and for now here are mine:
Excuse the smallness, we have some kinks to work out here with Blogger. And by we, I mean me.
I have to say that I most enjoyed getting to play with those amazing Thickers (this is easily one of the funnest fonts yet!) and the really awesome, perfectly unique butterflies. The bright colors of this paper pack will totally have you in the mood for spring, so if you don't have a kit on the way yet, order one ASAP!!!
See ya, Brandy

March Sketch
Hey everyone! It's March 1st and that means the kick off of our brand new blog challenge format! Instead of the montly newsletters, we'll be posting lots of fun challenges, sketches, articles, etc. here.
Here is the sketch for this month!
And here is my example page.
My sketch and example both feature an 11" x 8.5" page but you can certainly adapt this to whatever size fits your style (or you could try something new! :) )
We would love to see what you come up with so please load your page into our gallery (link on tab above) and post a link here!
