We would like to Congratulate our
GREEN Challenge WINNERS!!!!
their names are...
Debbie Daniels
Michelle Lane
Jeannie Thomas
We love their take on the little green box!
Debbie gives us...Domino (the dog) relaxing with his great view
on the world...thru the window with the cute green awning that Debbie created...
and don't you love the brick wall...
and to top it off she put the message on the inside flap.
Michelle gives us Shamrocks...a friend in need of good luck will be happy with
this sweet green box...(along with a starbucks card inside), she also added
lots of little green hearts to go along with the luck.
Jeannie turns out a fern covered green box with her signature 'dragonfly'...
and the ever green shredded recycled paper
inside(now that is very GREEN!)...we love the lush green outdoor feel!

WE LOVE IT! GREAT JOB

CHALLENGE !!!!!!!

GREEN CHALLENGE !
Our first challenge to ALL stampers...begins today.
The 2nd 2sday of each month at 2:00p.m. pst...(that's today!)
GREEN CHALLENGE
Kermit says...'It's not easy being GREEN'...but we know better...so for the 1st challenge from the sisters at S2G, we want you to embrace...
Being GREEN.
We are supplying you with a template for a small button box...
7 1/2"w x 8"h (rt click and save to desk top or print out)
All you have to do is come up with an idea that embraces...GREEN.
GREEN can be anything from the environment, to the color,
to St. Paddy's Day, to the renewing and rebirth that Spring brings us.
This small box could hold, candy, seeds, mini-hearts, shamrocks,
a special gift card,or even money (our favorite shade of GREEN...lol).
We want you to dig deep and use your imagination to come up with
something really unique and GREEN.
Naturally, we would love you to use our stamps, but because we are so new,
and not everyone has had a chance to buy one of our stamps...you can use any
stamp you already have. (But you do have time to get one from us and
still make the deadline.)
The deadline for submitting the pieces is...
2/22. at 2:00p.m.(pst).
We will post the finished pieces in S2G GALLERY and our GALLERY on SCS.
The top 3 designs that really 'embrace' the GREEN theme will receive a $22.00
credit with S2G...and of course be featured in our BLOG and possibly win a chance at being
a Guest Designer.
Ready...Set...go GREEN!

NO MORE CHOCOLATE !!!

Ahhh...I swear no more chocolate for a year! okay, maybe a month...ALL right, one week! That is if all goes well this next week! Why does that wonderful, sweet, delicious brown stuff, sometimes make everything seem better? (I think it's a conspiricy...Hersheys is behind it!)

Here it is, Sunday...and yes, we are busy working on the GORGEOUS, & SPLENDIFOROUS, NEW EMBELLISHMENTS that we are going to be selling...JUST WAIT! You'll LOVE them!

Our DT member JANE JONES designed this great valentines bag(with the stamp #33G Kisses & Hugs)...isn't it SWEET!

AND, more DOGS have YET been requested, some people think we are only partial to "little" dogs...But no, I have had Labs for the last 30+ years and before that, sissy & i grew up with Samoyeds...so we will be getting to the BIGGER dogs too! Don't you fret...they are coming...
in a store near you...SOON!

Well...I'm off to business for now...have a Fabulous Sunday...Deidre
