MyGrafico Monday: New Year = New Design Team & Blog Hop

Have you missed MyGrafico Mondays? I know I sure have! As we all celebrate the beginning of a new year, we're also celebrating a new design team at MyGrafico!! And what better way to celebrate than to hold a blog hop. In fact, we'll be holding two - one for the Monday challenge and one for the Wednesday sketch challenge. That's fabulous news for you - two chances to win the super cute set the design team is featuring this week:



I know you're itchin' to get your hands on this, so all you need to do is leave a comment on each design team members' posts. One member of the design team (who's already been chosen) will select a random winner from all the comments on her blog! Who knows who it could be, so be sure to leave a comment on each dt member's blog :) The hop starts at Martha's blog, so be sure to head there if that's not where you started from. You can also get more hop details on the MyGrafico Challenge Blog




Guess what! They're another way to win the set and it's super fun....participate in our challenges this week. On Wednesday, a sketch will be posted for you to use -or- join us for the Monday challenge:


In with the 'old' and the 'new'
**Create a card/project/LO that uses a brand new item and a repurposed item (old calendar pages, mail, packaging, etc.)


Here's what I came up with for the challenge:

Hee hee!! I love it!! So here's my 'old' & 'new'. Old-repurposed felt from a school project & the image was repurposed from Circus theme to Valentines. New-the lion's mane is flocked with my new Martha Stewart flock that I got for Christmas. I got the whole flocking color spectrum, so prepare to get fuzzy!!



So I bet you're anxious to see what the next dt member came up with for the challenge! Keep hopping and meet our new design team member, Tazza.




Details:
Stamps - Circus by Zenware (MyGrafico)
Ink - copics
Paper - white
Accessories - felt, ribbon (Bazzill), red flocking (Martha Stewart)

Oooh...what a super cute card! Love the image first of all, but the playful use of fabric and flocking is so fun. Love the play on words in the sentiment too. Just a totally cute card.

Re: your side note--yes, I did update my profile pic. It was taken earlier this year and it reveals the real me...gray and all! Actually, I like the way my hair is graying...so I thought why cover it? There you have it!! ;)

Tazza said...

Ahh Geez I'm sorry I came back today and I realise I didn't comment on your card! Yikes! I'm so Sorry!
I totally love the flocking and the sentiment is so cute that I am going to scraplift it for a card, Hope you don't mind! Look forward to being on the Design team with you and seeing all you come up with!
