Fresh Baked! 3/9

It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood.  A beautiful day for a neighbor.  Would you be mine….Could you be mine?  Sorry, I had a Mr. Roger’s flash back.  Anywho, it really is nice here.  Yesterday was so warm (60s) that I was able to actually open windows and air out the house.  I think the Spring Cleaning bug bit me where I actually want to put clean sheets on beds.  Yeah, crazy I know!  I hate doing the sheets, but man, I’m actually considering it.  Not sure how much farther past “consider” I’ll make it but we’ll see.

We have a lot we need to go over today so let’s get right down to business.

As you know last week we started a new contest called Mystery Designer.  I showed you a sneak peek of a brand new kit and you have to guess who made it!  We had so many people guessing it was fun reading your guesses.  The time has come to annouce the winner of last week.

Once again here was the preview:

Who did you guess?  I can tell you the majority of the people guess Connie Prince.  I can tell you all now that it wasn’t her.  Sorry!  Are you know just dying to know who it was?  Well let me just pause here and let the anticipation grow more and more…..

…….

…….

…….

That’s enough anticipation…The Mystery Designer..was the one….and only….

Inspired Designs!

Were you surprised?  Are you stunned?  Do you have a new favorite designer?  Let me show you her full reveal!

Weekly Wrap Up

What does a busted phone and a sad Snickerdoodle have in common? Not much, actually. Just a little jealousy on my part that my husband got a new phone. He got an HTC Inspire. BIG upgrade from a basic texting dumphone (Samsung Impression). I had to resist adding the Gingerscraps app to it.

What? You didn’t know that Gingerscraps has an Android app? Well, they do!! They have one for the iPhone (or other such devices) and for Windows 7 phones!

Sweet, right? Reminds me that I need to get onto someone about updating this ad! Windows 7 is available!

Other news? What? Really? You still want to hear me?

Oh geeze! I’m turning into Shannon! *hides*

On the Facebook page, Jacque wonders what everyone did on Monday. Personally, I was in bed. Sinuses. Blech! Anyone else abhor them?

On the forum, Jen, of Jen Yurko Designs, asked which app to use: Forum Runner or Tapatalk for her Droid. As a future owner of an Android (I’m getting the same one as my husband Open-mouthed smile). Looks like BOTH are getting good reviews. For Windows users: I suggest Board Express.

Speaking of Android apps, I posted, looking for the BEST apps for Android. I’m an app girl. I like to make everything all me and personal. I can do that with apps!!

Now, it’s March. Yeah, it’s March already. Where did February go?

How did you do with the challenges? Yeah, I didn’t do too well. Goal for March for me personally is to do at least four of them!!

One I’m definitely trying is the Technique Challenge. Selective coloring, basically, is what you’re learning. Plus, there’s an ADORABLE kitty in the thread!! I swear I heard it purr at me!

Another one I’m going to attempt to do is the FONT CHALLENGE!!

Considering a certain popular show on ABC, this font is PERFECT for that. Anything related to reading or something! Hey, you could use the new BUFFET on it!! The Reading Room!

I can’t wait to see what you do!!

 

March’s book is The Hunger Games!! Join us for discussions starting March 07, and an unscheduled at the moment chat at the end of the month!

Before I forget!!

You still have a day or so!! Go check it out!!

Well, I think that’s about it!! If you have anything you think should be brought forth for a weekly round-up on Gingerscraps, give me a holler on Gingerscraps (I’m Sarah on there)! I’ll see what I can do!!
