Christine from ATS decided to release the New! Winter Playtime set and Playful Penguins TONIGHT at midnight! So you can view the sets and place a pre-order!!
ALSO
Do you want to be on a design team?
Well then here’s your chance!! I copy/pasted this from AmyR’s site
We’ve made some changes to the current All That Scraps Design Team – all the members currently on the team will be staying on with us until September 2008 and are now Senior Design Team Members.
However we’ve decided to have another All That Scraps team and are looking for 6 new people to join! It’s a 3-month stint officially starting January 1st and ending March 31st. So every 3 months I will be looking for 6 new members for our team!
To find out all the info and what you need to know to apply please go HERE <——click!!
Now on that note, I have a very important message! HINT: READ THE SENTIMENT
(set Starlight Starbright by Verve Visual I had to get the 2 latest releases, as they were SO COOL!!.)
Now MANY of you have emailed me, or commented, and expressed anxiety and low self worth, about applying to the design team. STOP THAT!!!! Stop thinking “Im not good enough”.
Have confidence. Put your best foot forward.
How can you achieve your goals if you don’t try?
I know you worry about putting yourself out there, that you will get rejected.
If you get nothing else from me, I hope you learn to GO FOR IT!!! Go after your dreams. How else are you going to succeed?
If you don’t try, then you definitely LOSE. If you lose, then hope you learn something. That “something” that will help you NEXT time. Maybe it wasn’t your time. There will be a window open somewhere, at some point, but not if you don’t look for it. It will not smack you on the head and say OPEN ME! You need to find your window.
This goes for ALL area’s of life.
Rejection STINKS! But you know what, it happens to EVERYONE.
So I encourage you to be not afraid, and put yourself out there.
Ok I’m getting off my soap box, and heading back to bed :C
Thanks so much for the supportive comments, and emails. It truly means SO MUCH to me. Words cannot say.
Till tomorrow-when I have our Saturday Sketch Challenge 😀

I’m SO SO SORRY you are sick! And that Noah is sick! NOT FUN…I feel so bad for you. And I know your’re bored silly, that stinks, too! Bless your heart, I hope you feel better BY THE MINUTE! PLEASE GET WELL! It’s SO annoying to be sick, but I guess it makes us appreciate being well! (as if you need a reminder!) Please know that we are thinking of you, and wishing you warm wishes for a speedy recovery from your silly shot!!! ~~~cyber hugs~~~and smiles! 🙂
Thanks! I would love to be on that design team, so I appreciate the tip. 😉 Hope you are feeling better very soon!!!
I hope you’re feeling better. I’m a regular lurker to your site but I had to read some of the comments people left after you posted that commenters corrected your grammar! Yikes! How rude! Blogging is a form of expression, like texting, emailing and the like, all I can say is get a life to those people. When you blog you’re just thinkin’ aloud, right? Keep bloggin’ and I’ll keep readin’, thanks for sharing with us!
I have been on the fence about this set……your helping to “push” me to order!
I had sent my submissions to Amy about a week ago, although there is so much great talent out there it’s hard to feel like what you make is good enough sometimes. I dont know, maybe that’s just me!
I hope you and Noah feel better soon, and Im looking forward to a new sketch!
Hey girl! You are such an inspiration. I love that you are always so upbeat and encouraging. Keep it up. It will mean a lot to the person you think needs it the least.
Love,
Kathy
LOL…Lauren…you are too funny !!! But I love the way you reach out to others…what a super person you are. I have already put in for this one with Amy S. I am just a beginner and so rejection when putting myself up against the likes of those of you have been doing this for so long, well, it’s okay. But I am NOT going to quit…So the rest of you peeps GO PUT YOURSELF OUT THERE!!! If it is meant to be, then it WILL BE 🙂
Thanks for the encouraging words! You rock! Now get your rest. 😉
This card is lovely. The new stamp set is terrififc. So many new stamps are being released tomorrow or just came out. There goes my money again. 🙂
Mary
Great sentiment and cute card! Hope you’re feeling better and Alexa isn’t too sick this time.
I love those new stamps from Visual Verve too! I have been using my sentiments like crazy!!! They are fab! Your card is so cute…great ribbon on there!
LOL @ applying for a Design team…girl…you are cracking me up! I’ll just admire everyone else 😉
Oh and thankgoodness it is ALMOST Saturday….I’m waiting on that sketch you know 😉
So sorry you & Noah are not feeling well. Hopefully Alexa does not get sick. I didn’t get the shot (yet) this year, but my DH and he still caught a terrible cold from the kids.
Already sent in my ATS info! I was psyched to see it was that time again! I will def check out that release tomorrow morning :=) (I won’t be awake at midnight :-)) I do have enough holiday stamps though but if it’s that cute….
Lauren, I hope you’re feeling better; just ensure to take care of yourself for a change and enjoy some well-deserved rest, relaxation, and T.L.C.
You are certainly full of beans today aren’t you?!?!?! What a wonderful example you must display for your children and of course, the REST of US 🙂
I’m sure your positive encouragement has had some affect on those who may question or doubt the quality of their stampin’/paper work projects. But after reading your Pep-Talk, some of the *Lurkers* might just jump right in, head first, and submit their work for consideration for one of the Design Team positions, that seem to be popping up all over the past few weeks. And as you said, WHY NOT?!?! What harm can come of it? If you don’t fail every in life, how will you be able to truely appreciate success and advancement ~~~ the positive feelings and sensations, are all that more powerful and sweeter, when you’ve had a few disappointments on the climb.
So who knows … maybe I will finally start looking into how to create my own blog and start posting some of my creations ! Eeeeek !
Lauren, you are truely a source of kindness, love and sweet motivation. Thank you for being honest, straight-forward, and always talking directly from your *Heart*.
Now just get back on those **Energizer Bunny Paws** of yours and feel better :0) Take care sweetie !
xoxo Robbi
Lauren,
you are such an imspiration for me… I have for the last few months been putting myself out there and yes I did doubt myself for a while but like you say I have to keep plugging away no matter what and I do hope one day the door will open for me… Thank you so much for the pep talk.
Now for your cards here, they are truely amazing…
Aimee
