February Challenge...2 More Days

If you have any smiling faces for the challenge please go ahead and send them to me at groovydeb@yahoo.com or leave them under the message below with a 28 in the subject. TWO more days :)

DT Applications

Just want to thank all of you who have submitted your applications to be on the DT here at If It's Groovy. I want you to know that I think you are ALL talented. I am accepting applications through February 28th and then will be back in touch with each person to let you know whther or not you were selected. It is a very hard process, be assured!

What's NOT so GROOVY?!?!

Nights in the twenties and NO furnace...nope so NOT groovy!!! However, the hotel my family and I stayed in was pretty cool. Hoping for an EARLY Spring and sending out kudos to Comfort Suites for making us comfortable while we were out of our home!

Stamp Press by Fiskars

If you have never tried a Stamp Press, take yourself right over to Michael's with your 40% coupon in hand and buy one. You can take my word for it that once you try it you will never put it down! The plate that my HG stamp is holding can be removed and washed and extra plates can also be purchased in case you would like to work on several projects in one sitting. It really is one of the most wonderful things I have in my scrap palace ;)

Add a little ink or paint to your image after it dries.

Fiskars Guest Designer

It was my pleasure to be asked to be a Fiskars Guest Designer for February. I created this layout of my mom and youngest daughter using a very beautiful Cloud 9 line, Heidi Grace, and one of my favorite Fiskars Border Punches called Threading Water.

February Challenge

This month is Random Acts of Kindness Day and National Children’s Dental Health Month. For someone like me who enjoys sharing my extras, Random Acts of Kindness Day is an exciting time! On February 17th we all can join in the fun to celebrate by doing something small or something big for those we know or for complete strangers. Think of the benefits! You may meet a new friend or help someone who was having a bad day. Either way let's celebrate!!!To share in my excitement I have decided to host a challenge this month where not only YOU can win, but you can choose a friend to win along with you. That's right TWO WINNERS!!! Each person will receive 28 items, one for each day of the month :)There are two requirements for the challenge this month. Both of you will need to be followers of my blog which is as simple as clicking "follow me". I would also like to see one or both of you create a scrapbooking project with your favorite kiddo smiling as big as possible to honor National Children’s Dental Health Month. Ya know what is really cool? Taking the kids to the dentist and getting a great report. Take yours this month and start them on the road to keeping healthy :)Leave a link under the "28" post to your online gallery or email me at groovydeb@yahoo.com with your pic to have your project entered.
