There is SO much going on this week, my head is in a spin!   So, bear with me, there’s a lot going on in this post!

Firstly, I’d like to say another big thank you to all the fabulous ladies who put in the time and effort to make the Quixotic Paperie anniversary blog hop so fantastic!  If you haven’t done the hop yet, do pop over to the Quixotic Paperie Store/Design Team blog and get hopping.  You have until Sunday, when three prize winners will be drawn!  And while you’re over there, why not become a follower of the store blog – all the latest news and inspiration from the DT gets posted there as and when!

Secondly I have some exciting news!  I’ve joined Susana’s wonderful SCACD Design Team!  As most of you will be aware, I stock Susana‘s Victoria Case and Elisabeth Bell stamp lines over at Quixotic Paperie, so this is a great fit.  Susana is also a wonderful friend, so I’m thrilled to be working with her and the rest of the team!  I’ll be updating my sidebar here later today to reflect this and some other changes!

Sweet November Gal http://athousandsheetsofpaper.blogspot.com

Thirdly, one of my very favourite bloggers – the super-talented and super-fun Amy Young – asked me to be a Sweet November Guest Gal!  Amy is the illustrator of the Sweet November range from C.C. Designs, and I have loved her designs since I first laid eyes on them!  You can find the Sweet November range at Quixotic Paperie.  I will be previewing the latest release this week, starting tomorrow, and you are going to want to check it out, because OMG gorgeous!  Amy has popped up a little spotlight post about me over on her blog, which you can see HERE.

Color Me Copic http://colormecopic.blogspot.com/

Last but by no means least – you may have heard that there’s a new Copic blog in town!  I’ve joined the girls over at Color Me Copic, which opened this week!  Color Me Copic is to be an informational blog designed to help Copic enthusiasts of all levels!  We will all be posting info for those just starting to use Copics and also tutorials for creating different Copic projects.  Again, I’ll be adding the details for Color Me Copic to my sidebar later today as soon as I get chance to have a bloggy tidy up!

Time for my Quixotic Challenge creation!  This week I set the challenge:

*** Go Wild! ***

Create a project/card featuring animals, or alternatively create a project for an animal (i.e. a treat package for dogs/cats).
 
Nice and easy!  There have been some changes to the challenge guidelines over at Quixotic Challenges, so before you join in make sure you’re aware of the new guidelines, which can be found HERE.
For my project, I decided to alter a photo frame I’ve had hanging around for a while!  I covered it with some Bo Bunny paper that again, has been hanging around for a while! 
The image is from one of the gorgeous Oliver and Amelia sets by The Greeting Farm (available HERE).  Totally cute, no?
