DT Announcement and Blog Hop

OMG I can't beleive the day is finally here to tell you all about my fantastically exciting news. I am now a full time member of the Meljen's Design Team.


A few weeks ago I was approached by one of my dear friends on the team and she told me that they wanted me to be a full time team member. I was practically jumping up and down with excitement, of course I had to say yes. It has been a hard secret to keep from you all. In addition to myself, there are seven other new members joining me in this journey. Plus there are seven returning members. That means lots of inspiration to be had. In honor of this great announcement we are having a..............

BLOG HOP


This three-day BLOG HOP PARTY will feature all returning and new designers, plus there will be PRIZES at the end. Hooray for prizes. All you need to do is leave some love at each designer's blog to be eligible for  prizes, GRAND PRIZE of FOUR images {of the winner's choice} and then how about three MORE winners, each getting two images of their choice from the Whimsy shop.  The winners will be announced on Freebie Monday, which means that technically, everyone gets a prize!

You should have arrived here from Dianna's blog. If you are just happening upon my page and have not been doing the hop, please head on over to the Meljen's Designs DT blog for the details and the blog list (which I am also posting below). But before I do that let me share my fab Meljen's creation with you.

My card for the hop is using an image from last week's new release Autumn Leaf and Acorn and can be found for sale, along with the rest of Meljen's fabulous images, at the Whimsy shop . I used the leaf and the acorn multiple times in my card to give it a very Fall vibe. Everything I used for this card is from my "stash".

Now off to the rest of the hop. From here you should go visit Lauretta at her blog and see what amazing project sahe has to share with you. If you need, here is the entire blog hop lineup.

Please check out  the Meljen's Designs DT blog to see the current challenge, which started yesterday. Grab the freebie from Monday and play along. Each week I will be sharin more and more Meljen's images with you and be sure to visit the Meljen's Designs DT blog , especially Thursdays, where (each week) there is a new release and a new challenge! Each challenge gives you a chance to win free images, too.

I look forward to this journey and I am glad to have you all along for the ride.
