Today is a special day for me!

[KristinCB]

Today marks 10 years since I got the most amazing email from Robin inviting me to sell at my dream store! You guys don't even know how thankful I was (and am) for this opportunity.

I will be forever grateful for Robin and the other designers that gave me the chance way back when!

In honour of my 10 year anniversary I want to do something fun to celebrate so we're going to have a mash-up challenge. If you're new to this the rules are simple - take two of my kits (they can also be collaborations with other designers) and make one layout combining the two kits! Taking two very different kits is always more fun in the creativity and adventure department! Have fun!!

One winner will receive my upcoming Christmas Collection that will be released on Black Friday and a grand prize winner will receive a $50 gift certificate to my store.

Post your entries here in this thread for your chance to win (you may enter up to two times, please post in two separate posts)

[ErinShannon]

I had to jump on this challenge - thinking outside the box! Love this idea!



I used At The Boardwalk and This Is Family for kits.



I chose these two kits because my family is everything to me ...but....they are also clowns who keep me on my feet and every day feels like a roller coaster with these two goobers! :-)

Journaling says:
Life with you two is a crazy ride for sure! I never know what to expect with either one of you. You are both quick to joke around and tease. At times you are the best of friends but a lot of times, you are both at each other's throats. I joke that I don’t know whether I should stop you two or just make some popcorn and hang on for the wild ride. LOL What I do know is, despite all the craziness, you two are my greatest joy and best accomplishment. I can’t imagine my life without you both in it...even if that means that sometimes it feels like a carnival roller-coaster. Ha! Stay silly! And try to love each other ...for me...please! LOL

xoxox, Mom
