May 123 Challenge...

And the April 2012 winners are....

chosen not just by myself, but also by my Creative Team, so please don't think I choose the layouts because they have some of my creations on them!!!

Donating this month:

A Piece of Cake Designs

Raquel, the owner of a new online Scrapbooking Kit Company called ‘A Piece of Cake Designs’ is offering a$20.00 voucher to spend in her store.

Raquel’s goal is to provide people with a funky, scrumptious monthly scrapbooking kit that is jam packed with papers and cool embellies from different companies that are combined in a unique way that appeals to all scrappers out there! But, because all the hard work of combining and creating unique colour combinations and brands will be done for you, it should be appealing and 'a piece of cake' to start scrapping and creating in this busy world we live in! She is hoping it will be an online kit club so yummy you'll just want it all!

This, there will be an opportunity to subscribe to these delish kits and secure yourself one every month, to ensure you don’t miss out (and with an added bonus of receiving a discount when subscribing!). The May kits go on sale Monday May 7th.

A Piece of Cake Designs currently has two awesome designers, this years Scrapbooking Memories Master Tam Milborn and the gorgeous and funky Samantha Young. This means the blog is brimming with scrumptious layout ideas and inspiration for their readers!

It is with great sadness that we see her go as she has been a huge part of 123 - as inspiration & helping with our challenge creating! We look forward to seeing you reach even higher heights than you have already reached! We are very proud of your amazing achievements! Wishing you all the best! xoxo
