Happy Wednesday! I am Kim and I am your hostess this week. This week marks our 50th Challenge! My, how time flies! Did everyone enjoy our birthday celebration? Did everyone get the limited time digis? I sure hope so! Isn't this new line just the cutest??!!! Watch out for more cuteness because the preview continues!

Before we move on to this week's challenge, I have a bit of news for everyone. First, our challenge coordinator, our very sweet, talented Maureen has decided to step down due to personal reasons. Maureen has been with La La Land since the beginning and she has been an asset to this wonderful company! We will sure miss you and your beautiful creations, Maureen!

The other news I want to share is that this is our FINAL CHALLENGE! As we step into the new La La year, we have something exciting, different for everyone planned ahead! Stay tuned for everything wonderful happening soon!

My favorite holiday is Christmas so I chose CHRISTMAS as our last challenge. You can create any Christmas related card/project.

I used SWEET ROSIE on my card so she is 20% off through next Tuesday!

One player will WIN a $10 Credit towards any rubber stamps of your choice in the La-La Land Crafts store!! And three of you will be awarded this TOP THREE award badge to proudly display on your blog!

LLWWC46 - STEP IT UP

Hello La-La Land friends! Kristine here to host this week's challenge... "Step It Up!" But before I get started, I just wanted to thank everyone who joined us last week for Kim's "Try Something New" challenge!! Super entries by all!

This week, I'd like everyone to try a STAIR STEP card, a SIDE STEP card, or if you're feeling brave, a DOUBLE SIDE STEP card!! These really are easier to make than they look... they just require a couple extra score lines & in some cases a couple extra cuts, and are so fun to embellish. I've linked you to some easy tutorials to help you out! Just remember please to use a stamp or digi from LaLa Land Crafts on your cards!!

Since I used LaLa on a Swing on on my card, she will be on sale for 20% OFF through next Tuesday! I am loving all the new summer stamps and hope you'll love them too and that they'll soon be in your collection as well!

Remember, one player will WIN a $10 Credit towards any rubber stamps of your choice in the La-La Land Crafts store!! Three of you will be awarded this TOP THREE award badge to proudly display on your blog!

Here's what you need to do to be eligible to win the PRIZE or Top Three badge:

1. Create a NEW card/project for the challenge that has embossing on it. You are more than welcome to combine challenges!

More of Something NEW

I would like to show you two more cards for this week's TRY SOMETHING NEW CHALLENGE. For the details of this challenge, please scroll down to the post below or click HERE.

First card was made by Pam Sparks. For "something new" Pam used the McGill Sunflower punch that she's had for several years and never used. Oh WOW, this punch just meant to be used with Sunflower Rosie!! Just PERFECT!!


And here is my card :-) For my "something new" I made a paper spring to mount Snorkel Sherman onto my card. This card was also made for a very special girl named Bella, please visit my blog for more information.



Remember, you have till Monday midnight to participate in our Challenge!! There is still time!!

Hugs!!
