Sneak Peek!

Hello crafty friends!

The gals and I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and wish you all the best for the New Year! This will surely be an exciting year, including our first challenge which will debut on January 7th!

The gals sure have been hard at work on these delightful projects, and I am so honored to have them all on my team! They are all incredibly gifted and talented and I can't wait to kick things off in just a little over a week!

I thought it might be nice to put together a little sneak peek for you all, so you can see what the team and I have been up to during this busy holiday season.




Our first challenge has TWO wonderful sponsors, which means there will be TWO lucky winners! 

I hope you all will join us over here at Crafty Gals Corner for lots of fun, prizes, and challenges. See you all soon!


Hugs,
Samantha

DT ANNOUNCEMENT!

WOW! First off thank you to all who entered this DT Call, please believe that this was not an easy decision. I had so very many great entries and this was a tough call. 

However, I'm beyond thrilled and excited to announce Crafty Gals Corner FIRST Design Team.  I have chosen a wonderful group of ladies and I'm so lucky to be sharing this new adventure with them. All of these ladies have their own styles, and I'm so excited to see the diversity of projects that they are going to create. This is surely going to be a lot of fun! You can also find them on our "DT Members" tab at the top.

 So without further ado let's meet the team!

Stay tuned for more information on our upcoming challenge the first week of January!

More Sponsors!

Hi all!!

It's getting close to that time, there are only 8 days left to apply for a DT position! 

Unfortunately, England has decided to place a VAT tax on digital products starting January 2015. Due to that, we have had a few companies withdraw their sponsorship's as they will no longer be selling digital images. This is so sad!!

 THE GOOD NEWS IS WE NOW HAVE 24 WONDERFUL SPONSORS!

We have a few more sponsors who have agreed to fill their positions and I'd love for you to check out our Sponsor's tab and see the newest additions to our Sponsor Family! 

I also wanted to say a huge welcome to all our newest followers! 

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving (those of us in the U.S), and stay tuned for more exciting news including the announcement of our DT in a little over a week.

Hugs,
Samantha

Welcome, Welcome!!

Welcome, welcome fellow Crafters! I'm so glad you decided to join us today.

I have taken the leap and decided to start a challenge blog! We are the Crafty Gals Corner, and I will be hosting a DT call EXTREMELY soon! Please be sure and check back for details, as well as the linky to enter!

I have been crafting for about 5 years now, and have been fortunate enough to be a DT member of TWO wonderful challenge blogs and was so inspired by them that I thought I would love to run a Challenge Blog of my own. So Crafty Gals Corner was born!

This challenge blog will be a place for ALL types of crafters (newbies to seasoned veterans) who want to come and share their amazing projects. As long as you play with paper and create something with it you are more than welcome to enter our challenges. This includes, 3-D Projects, Scrapbook pages, Cards, etc. etc. :) As long as you stay with in our challenge rules of course. 

I have been in touch with a few sponsors who are just as excited as I am to sponsor us and join the Crafty Gals Corner! If you'd like you can see who has already agreed to join us by clicking on the "Our Wonderful Sponsors" tab at the top of the page. :)

Thank you for stopping by to read my little tid-bit and please stay tuned for the DT call that will be coming real soon!

Crafty Hugs,
Samantha
