Forward Progress, Sad News, and a Crop!

Prompt 10 is up over at Forward Progress and we have a sponsor! Green Geco and Scrapadilly is donating a prize package! tks bonnie ;) I will share my project with you when i get back from vacation but go ahead and click on the link to check it out, this month's prompt is about being able to forgive in order to move forward. DEEP! ;)

So as i logged in to check my email today, i got an email from CMK {i sub to the announcements section so i can get news when new stuff arrrives in the store, lol} but i am sad to say the store will be no more. CMK will be closing it's doors as of Aug 31st. CMK was one of the first places i ever joined. i have made some long lasting friends there and i am just plan sad. maybe i can convince them to come hang with me at Serendipity ;)

With that being said, pre-crop challenges are posted for The
Happily Ever After Crop
next weekend and they are fun! Nothing like a crop to cheer you up a bit. Make sure you check out the August Kits, too! The last few posts I have done with the Collage Press Knave of Hearts and OA have been from that kit.



Here is a little matchbox I made with some of my scraps and a Label Tulip Stamp :

That little match box is so cute. It's sad about CMK closing :( I have tried to get a sub there but never did manage it! Glad at least that it isn't due to economy.
