I've been on the DT at Scrapbook Challenges Since it was on Myspace. I've truly loved every moment of it. I love the DT and Pamela. I have had the pleasure to meeting and working along side some extremely talented ladies. I am sadden to say that I will be stepping down from the DT. My life has gotten really busy. Also, I am is dealing with a lot of health issues that need attending to; as well as my family. I will continue to play along with all the members of Scrapbook Challenges and I am proud to say that the New DT is an Amazing bunch of ladies. You will have some fantastic sketch, challenges, classes, tutorials and other wonderful things to look forward to at Scrapbook Challenges.

It's been awhile since I've been on here. I haven't stop scrapping just haven't been posting here. Because things keep me from taking a moment to post. So, sorry about that. I wanted to let you know that the winner of the contest was posted on Facebook (see post below - about DH) the winner was Rosa. She did receive her prize and loves everything in it.

Here are a few of the layout I created since I was last on here. I am going to try to post some tutorials I did on Scrapbook Challenges. Please note that all the sketches I used to make my layout were created by Pamela Young.
