Design Team Challenge
Featured Project and Designer
Last week there was an error in the announcement of who we were featuring. I mixed some text from Jen Nichols with the text from Peggy Severins. So we are going to feature Peggy Severins again this week to give her the recognition that she deserves. Peggy is an amazing designer that has been on the team for a long while. She has a sweet disposition and that shows through in her design style. Check out her gallery and bio to see what I mean!

I am 33 years old, married to Ad whom I met a little over 15 years ago. We have 2 |
| children, a 7yo daughter, Kelsey and a 5yo son, Kylian. They are the reason why I started scrapbooking a little over 4 years ago. I started scrapping with darker colors but since I discovered KI Memories my albums got a whole lot more colorful. Read More ... |

Efteling (5 photos strip Challenge)
A layout showing some of the pictures of a day out at the Efteling, a very popular amusementparc here in the Netherlands. Each year we buy seasontickets and we go here often, it is always so much fun!
|
Journaling:
This year is the 7th year that we bought ourselves seasontickets to the Efteling. No matter how often we go there, fun is always guaranteed. I would say that on an average Summer we visit the parc approximately 10 times. We enjoy the moments we have together with the 4 of us, relaxing, simply having fun! Read More ... |

This week we feature Liana Suwandi. Liana has been on the team for a couple of years and I think that we all know her style well and it speaks for itself. Take a look, if you haven't already, and see if you agree.

Hey everyone! I'm Liana. Please allow me to introduce myself.

Nowadays, I work at a small manufacturing and import company which is based in Dallas. Currently, I am happily married to my middle school sweetheart, Frendy. We have been married for 4 years now. We don't have kids, yet, but we do have 2 old Siberian Huskies, Jay and Lucy. Read More ... |

~You~
by Liana Suwandi
To start, I converted a photo of cute Karina (she is my friend youngest daughter). Print and stitch all over photo with light green thread. Set this aside. Mostly, I created this layout with my adobe
|
| Photoshop (add text with different size of fonts and matching colors). After I’m happy with my sketch, I start printing this directly onto photo paper. Matte this with pink cardstock. Hand cut flower from basic grey, adhere this hand cut to the right side corner. Read More ... |

It's something that I need to keep doing because, after all, I did graduate with a Masters in Music and music is something that I love very much.

A Spring Stroll
by Cari Locken
Our assignment was to create a spring themed layout that was easy to scraplift, using the Green Bazzill Bling as the key color, the Cuttlebug shapes & alphabet for our title, no black & |
white photography and no black cardstock.
Well, I admit that the "no black" part of this challenge was tricky for me at times because I kept wanting to use it. But, alas, I went the other way & used white! Read More ... |

New Design Team Challenge
I know many of you were very sad when we announced that we were going to discontinue the Monthly Scrapbook contest that has been a staple since our site began. It was an amazing contest that allowed us to enjoy a little piece of each person that entered each month.
Well, be sad no more! I have personally been working with the best design team in the entire cyber universe to devise a new contest. It's even going to be run by the CX Design Team. How cool is that? Click here for information about the prize money, and the entry details for this new contest.

"Umm...Not Really!"
by Heidi Trejo
I love this page about my son. It really cracks me up every time I read the journaling. To create this page I mounted my Pattern paper on to the red |
| cardstock then machine sewed around the edge. Then I mounted my picture, journaling and red strip of paper (for the title) on the green paper from my Mellow collection pack. Read More ... |
