COLLECT YOUR TREASURES & CLUES FROM THE DESIGNER CARDS ON EVERY DT BLOG…… Look IN FOR THE TREASURES IN THE ICR GALLERY!

AND ONCE you have found the treasures mentioned, you will have to tell us, exactly the name of the creation on which they found the treasure & the name of the creator…. {as it appears in the ICR GALLERY}

I know it is REAL ADVENTUROUS FUN!

Blog hopper, who fulfills the above criterion & WHO WOULD BE THE FIRST TO GIVE ALL THE ANSWERS CORRECT, would stand to WIN the CANDY TREAT!

Finally...I'm back on track after a whirlwind of a trip to India.  It almost feels like a dream!  Although I'm not enjoying the blistering cold, I was ecstatic to be back home to my fiance and my dog Khushi...I missed them both terribly, so it was so nice to have something to look forward to when leaving India :)


I'll be posting again shortly, so here is my first post for the day...the long awaited challenge winner!  I apologize for the Inlinkz not working.  I actually had no clue till I got back home from the trip.  To make it fair, I listed all of the entries that I could find, before using random.org to pick the winner.

Jo


Congrats Jo!  You have 3 days to contact me for your prize and winner's badge!  Thank you everyone for sharing your beautiful creations!  I hope you'll join us again!

Well the Indian Craft Room has a wonderful challenge for Feb.  I'm so glad I was able to join in time.   ICRC15 Feel the Love Challenge!  Here is the challenge pad.

Aside from being a big fan of PINK, I'm a big fan of print...whether it's news print, hand written, or musical notes....there is just so much that can be done with it.  Here is my entry...

CMP #6 - Color Splash Challenge

Hey Everyone!

Hope you are all enjoing the holiday season!  I was away for a few days, and couldn't really say why!  Three friends and I traveled down to Texas to surprise a girfriend of ours.  SHE HAD NO CLUE!  It was awesome, and we all had a great time visiting her.  I know she visits my blog occasionally, so I had to be very secretive about it ;)

I have another vacation coming up...it's a trip to INDIA!  Since I'll be there till the end of January, this new challenge will go on until I've returned (Jan 24th).  I didn't want to leave my blog idle with nothing going on, and so this works out for me.  I will be checking up on the blog a few times a week...when I'm not traveling.
