This month's kit is soft and pretty and, well, whimsical! With papers from Girls' Paperie, it's just the thing to scrap your romantic layouts.
.
But there are enough neutral papers to guarantee at least a few masculine pages! And it's perfectly suited for Easter, which is just around the corner!
You can buy your April kit here in the WeScrap Etsy store - and for a limited time, receive a FREE GIFT with every purchase!
And did I mention it's only $19.99 (USD)?? Crazy, I know....
It's my non-designing month, but this baby is coming my way with Sarah when she and her sister, Holly, cross the border to scrap with me! Woot woot!
And just a reminder... tonight is the deadline to link up your layouts for the Leave Your Legacy challenges for March 11th and March 25th - one winner will be randomly drawn to win a copy of the Spring 2011 Canadian Scrapbooker magazine and your choice of a standard set or prior kit set of stamps!

(Okay, technically two words, but does that count if it's the same word?)
Today, I am honoured to be part of a series of interviews that my good friend, Lee, is conducting on her blog each Monday.
Inspired by the Pen & Paper & Proust series by the wildly talented Hope Wallace Karney on Carolyn Rubenstein's blog, A Beautiful Ripple Effect, Lee sent out emails to a group of ladies. As per Lee, "I'm inviting everyone I love - my friends, design team friends, celebrity people who inspire me - and you (hey, I gotta ask, right?), a great mix of great ladies who make me better. For that I am very grateful every day!"
Honoured to be considered one of these women, I sent off my email to Lee with my answers. When Lee posted her first interview on March 7th, featuring herself, I saw the wonderful line-up of women who were going to be interviewed. You can see them here, along with Lee's self-interview.
Today is my interview - hopefully I don't sound like too much of a dork! :)
This week, I am thankful:
1. to Holly for introducing me to roasted red pepper hummus. Oh. My. Heck.
2. for a safe trip home, following a very late creative session at Holly's following our Donna Downey classes. Or would 5:00am be considered very early?
3. to start working at my second store this week. Many of the same staff are still there from when I left in 2007, just prior to starting up Just Cre8 and it is nice to work with them again.
4. for a healthy homemade version of Macaroni and Cheese, a la Rocco DiSpirito - one that even Connor liked! Aili wasn't too keen on it though, and she's my less-fussy eater!
5. that I was asked, along with some incredibly talented women, to join not only the WeScrap team for another term, but the myStamp BOX design team as well.
6. for my new Stampendous stamp. I can't stop staring at it! Once my class at ScrapFest is over, I am locking myself in my scrap studio and am going to create like mad! Or at least I hope to...
7. for the relatively mild weather that we've been having, compared to the rest of Canada... please stay, Spring - oh how I've missed you!
What are YOU thankful for this week?
Glad to be back for another term with these talented ladies at WeScrap! There's a brand new site up, too - if you're looking for a place to hang out, come and check out our forum and gallery!
So excited to be a part of this again this year! Not only will I get to see my lovely Canadian Scrapbooker teammates, Cathie and Christy, but I will also get to see and meet some online friends, meet some faithful HOP readers and best of all, SHOP!!
I have several things on my MUST HAVE list and now that I am no longer ordering for my online store, I have really noticed that lack of scrapping supplies that are available locally. I spent some of my hard earned cash at Karen's makeshift store during the Donna Downey classes, on beautiful stuff like the 12x12 version of this template (oh, the possibilities!) and this stamp. But I still have a few items that I simply can't live without!
My class is nearly full and I'm excited to say that not only is Canadian Scrapbooker is a generous sponsor, but I also have Picture Keeper and Heritage Makers on board as well! There's only five spots left, so if you're thinking about taking this class, don't hesitate! :)
And while the VIP passes are sold out, there are still Saturday passes available - $10 in advance, $12 at the door. Get yours and stop by the Canadian Scrapbooker booth to say hello!
Check out the myStamp BOX blog and join in their Design Team Intro Blog Hop! Not only will you have a chance to win some yummy stamps, but you may see someone you know... :)
