Design Team - I was selected!
So in my previous post I indicated that I had submitted for a design team - Linnecards had a DT call - I submitted my projects and guess what? I’m a new DT team member. I wanted to share a couple of the projects I submitted for consideration to the team. This first project was done using this darling little boy Mason (my friend-Cassandra’s son). 
I used Technique Tuesday “Buggin Out” and “Petal Pushers” stamp sets. The layout is 8X8 done on Chatterbox patterned paper. For the tree branch across the top I used a Heidi Swapp mask and traced onto brown cardstock then Exacto knife to cut and trim. I then used the “Petal Pushers” leaf stamped with ColorBox fluid chalk ink trimed and glued to branch. Flowers are from Prima and attached with Stampin Up brads. For the “Bugs” I stamped with Black Stazon and colored with blender pen and reinkers. The bugs are on dimensional pop dots. I love how it turned out. The title was done with Making Memories rub-ons.
This second sample was a Provo Craft tin I decorated and filled with various cards. I loved the paper - it is from Piggy Tales. Various ribbons but the majority was from American Crafts - seemed to match perfectly. Below are a couple of cards that filled the tin.
Enjoy. Will post a couple more in the next few days. See you soon, lila

Hi Lila,
I just want to thank you for your advise regarding my “Life Changing Dilemma”. It’s been wonderfully helpful.
Congratulations on being chosen on the design team. Sounds like a lot of fun. Your lunch box and the cards are beautiful. I’m a designer paper freak and I love how you used the different patterns to compliment your lunch box design and your cards. Fabulous job!
