Our CC is almost Over

Well 24 hours to go for our March CyberCrop.. I have to tell you the Gallery is looking fantasitc.

I look at all our members, and I can see just how far some of them have come since joining us some 12 months ago. It is very rewarding to see them grow in how they approch a page, and what techniques they now use etc etc... I'd like to think that in some small way LSBS has played a small role in that..

I cant wait to see the mass of uploads tomorrow.. it usually happens on the last day of the crop.. :)

oooo.. I should tell you, that you might not have to wait to much longer for our NEXT BIG installement to LSBS.. it is very exciting, and I am excitied.. It is just one of many to come this year... 2006 was good for surprises, but let me tell you 2007 will be better!!

Until next time.. enjoy your scrapping!!

New Sketches

I am soo liking these new sketches.... I did them last night before the CC.. for the Sketch Challenge 1. I am enjoying doing the sketches at the moment, and will make some more during the week.

Layout:

Card:

I have noticed a lot lately there are people around the place that have decided to copy my style, and I have to say that it really annoys me. I know sketches have been around for a long time, and that they are nothing new.. but I have always tried to do something a little different with LSBS, and come up with something that is our own.. like creating our own sketches for our comps and cybercrops, adding a bot fo colour here and there.. doing more with the sketch... and well it appears that others are following ... I just wish people would come up with their own ideas... I mean I do it, so how hard can it be!!

NB: All sketches that you find on LSBS either through this blog or through our Sketches Gallery are © Little Scrapbook Shop. I dont have a problem if you want to borrow any of my sketches to use as challenges.. BUT please give us the credit for the sketch, and do no alter the sketch in any way..

I am sorry if I sound angry.. but I am really sick of people that copy, and sick of people that cant come up with their own style.. :) enough is enough as they say...

(P.S: I am not directing this at ANYONE.. BUT if you are reading this and are getting angry.. or have to justify what you have done.. then maybe it is you I am talking to!!)

Our March CC is in FULL Swing

TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT... our March Cybercrop is in full swing, with so many wonderful ladies joining us for the fun...

We have 4 great Challenges for the Adults.. plus a great Kids Challenge for the little ones.

Challenge 1 ~ Sketch

Challenge 2 ~ Hidden Message

Challenge 3 ~ Dress Up & 2 of a Kind

Challenge 4 ~ Step by Step From 'Lou'

Little Scrappers Challenge

As a quick reminder all layouts need to be uploaded in to the Gallery by Midnight on Monday 12th March (an extension for VIC public holiday)

We always have sooo much fun at our cybercrops, so if you get the chance we would love you to drop by and stay for a while and play...

Hope you all enjoy the coming weekend :)

3 Days to Go

Can you believe it.. there are only 3 days until our March Cybercrop.. we have hints up already on the site.

Are you joining us on Friday Night? We will have our famous bingo on .. speed round I am sure.. with lots of chat going on. Because of the long weekend in Victory (so I have been told) we are extending the deadline until Monday Midnight (no further extensions.. lol)

Now I will let you in on a little secret... ssssshhhhh dont tell anyone!!!!I am working on something new for the site.. it is pretty cool.. and will open up a whole new world for some.. and might bring some new people in for the LSBS experience.. who knows... but trust me it will be really really really cool.. and I cant wait.

Anyway.. quick update for today, will bring you more tomorrow :)
