An Elementary Winner and Prize!

I do have to thank Ms. Leah for "covering" for me this week... I've been a bit blue and a bit under the weather to say the least (I'm seriously counting down until this kid arrives!!). And I'm sure you've all been waiting with baited breath to find out who the winner of the March Elements Challenge is... SO...

Drumroll...

Congrats to: LANA for your awesome Trifecta submission:

Please email the Dollies with your mailing address and I'll get your prize in the mail...

NOW, onto April's Prize pack... Each participant who correctly plays with an elements challenge throughout the month of April will be entered for a chance to win this little stash of goodies:
So head on over to the Elements Challenge of the week, or even better, why not try your hand at a Trifecta that incorporates Leah's Color challenge, my Elements challenge, and Kristy's amazinng sketch?? Best of luck!!!

Sketchy Goodness!

Welcome to spring and welcome to this weeks sketch challenge! We've got a fun one for ya!

The Dollies took a stab at this one and this is the inspiration that they came up with...

Lizzie, our FAB GDT!

Melissa

Kate

and I decided from here on out to see if I can't inspire more people to take on the Trifecta! So for the rest of April you can see one way you could rawk the Trifecta...

Kristy

Can you do it? Let's see you rawk this sketch, either by itself OR as part of your own Trifecta! You Dollies have been takin advantage of it so well so far! You have until April 14th at midnight EST to get in on the sketch OR April 11 at midnight EST to rawk the Trifecta. Link us up BABY! (don't forget your projects must be created NEW for our challenges, and you MUST link to us in your blog post!)

April is in bloom! NEW ELEMENTS CHALLENGE!

HELLO, visitors to the Dollhouse! :)

Leah here, filling in for Adina (but she'll be back soon to announce a winner and show us the prize for the April Elements challenges!).

So March has come and gone (in like a lamb, out like a lamb?) and we had lots of participants in the Elements challenges, with AMAZING talent and creativity! We've loved seeing your translations of our recipes into your work, and we hope April will keep your mojo bubbling over!

I'm going to throw the new challenge at you now to get started (whether you're getting ready to do the Trifecta tomorrow, or looking to tackle these challenges individually)... Come back to find out who won the March prize pack, and to see what you could win this month!

This week's challenge?
APRIL SHOWERS BRING MAY FLOWERS!
(or so the old adage goes, right?)

We want to see flowers and showers incorporated into your projects! For example:

Dana created this amazing door hanger:

Kate's fabulously doodly layout (taken on a rainy day at the beach):


Adina (getting her thank yous ready for her baby SHOWER - get the raindrop reference?):

and Lizzie, our awesome Guest Dollie for April, with a beautiful, introspective page:

And that's all she wrote!

Okay, that's not true at all. Most of you know by now that I am far too wordy to just let it go like that. ;) SOOOOO, we want to see what you'll do with this challenge, and feel free to combine it with Monday's COLOR CHALLENGE or tomorrow's SKETCH CHALLENGE - you'll have until next Monday, April 12th at midnight EST to link your newly-created project below (be sure to link back to OUR blog in your blog post in order to be eligible for the prize draw!), OR if you do any combination of our challenges this week, the deadline is SUNDAY, April 11th at midnight EST.

Happy crafting!

Happy Spring/Fall/Winner/What?! NEW COLOR CHALLENGE!

WOOT! Check the new banner! Our Kristy-Dollie rocks the graphic design, oh yes she does! HELLO, new Dollie! And HELLOOOOOOOO, Spring! Yep, we've definitely got some springtime happy going on over here, and it's fabulous! Looking forward to some weekends down at the shore (Cape May, NJ) - I know the water is cold now, but soon I'll be dipping my feet in the ocean, and I can't wait!

So to celebrate the warm weather, how about a winner from the March Color Challenges, yeah? :)
