Yipeeeee!!! It’s springtime!!! I just love the cool, crisp morning air, sun shining in the afternoon, and breezy evenings! It’s my favorite time of year!
I like changing it up once in a while, so I chose a phrase again.
Here is the QUOTE/PHRASE I chose for this month:
“One Fine Day”
Use the phrase on a layout and post it in the Quote Challenge Gallery. Then come back here & leave a COMMENT with the LINK to your layout, so we can all gush over them.
Please post by April 30th and you will get this posting bonus FREE from me just for playing along:

I want to see what YOU consider a FINE DAY in your life!
I’m looking forward to your layouts!

Firstly, I would like to wish you all a very Happy Easter.
This month I have a cluster for you to add to you layouts, and because there have been many naughty people downloading the last two months challenge extras and not playing along (ahem!) I am going to ask you to leave a comment here and I will send you a link to the cluster.
I will send the link automatically to the ladies that joined in last month, when I send March’s posting Bonus.

You know the rules by now, I provide the animal, you create a layout using it, this month it is a butterfly but added to a cluster, use it anyway you want, all of it or part of it, you choose.
And when you have created your layout, leave a link here so we can all go see what you have done, and for playing along you get this posting bonus.
To get you started, I have created a layout using my part of this months DSO Collab, My Montage as well as the butterfly border, The colours go well with it.
So if you want to play, leave a message here and I will send you the border x

I spent a long time browsing the gallery and I really battled to choose a layout for this month’s challenge as there as so many stunning layouts.
Eventually I settled on Roper (Danielle’s) layout called Popsicle. I love the white space, the simplicity of the photo and the clustering around the photo. You can leave her some love here.
The idea is to use the layout to inspire a layout of your own using the colour, theme, structure or anything that pops into your mind when you look at this layout.
Remember to post your layouts to the Scraplift Gallery and then leave a comment here with a link to your layout so that we can leave you some love.
Here is what you are playing for this month.
I decided to do a layout of my own which you can see here. And just in case you are wondering who that is having a little temper tantrum? Uhm … that would be me!

Have fun!

It’s April already! Sorry I didn’t have the challenge open last month. I was in the hospital and having computer problems also..but.. it’s a new month and time for a new Altered Photo Challenge . This challenge is very simple: make you layout as usual, except alter your photo in some way. Post it in the Altered Photo Challenge Gallery or (Photo Op stop) HERE then post your link and what you did to change your photo back here. Be sure and leave me your email addy so I can mail you your posting bonus. Since Easter is this month I made you a little something to decorate those Easter layouts.

There is a complete Easter Egg Alpha with small images attached and some other easter goodies..I hope you like it.
I’m looking forward to seeing what you all do for this month’s challenge.
PLEASE REMEMBER TO LEAVE YOUR EMAIL ADDY SO I CAN SEND YOU YOUR POSTING BONUS.
Hugs Jazzy
