Challenge #24: If I were a rich girl

This challenge is inspired a little by St. Patricks Day. Pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, an Irish tale of leprechauns people symbolize the pot of gold as success. So with that in mind we came up with this challenge.

Prompt: Use title if I were a rich girl

Twists: Use some green on your layout & we want to see bling

Looking forward to seeing your projects for this challenge.

Challenge 23: Ad it up

 We are so excited to announce something different for Dreamgirls, but first we must to say thank you to Erin for her service as a Diva.  We realize that we all have lives outside of scrapping and sometimes things get hectic and causes us to take a step back.  We will miss Erin!

We are pleased to announce the addition of a card design to each of our challenges!!  We want to show the versatility of our challenges by giving our participants a different type of inspiration.  Our newest member will create a card using the given prompts!  Please join us in welcoming Eva to Dreamgirls.  Click on Eva's photo to take a peek at her Bio and her blog. 


Oh this week we have an awesome ad challenge, as you all know when using an ad it's left to your interpretation. You can use the design, the colors, or just one aspect of the ad really it's totally up to you. Of course we still have our twists.

Twists: 1.We would love to see a safety pin somewhere on your layout

2. Use some thing out of the scrap aisle totally up to you (ex. masking tape, office stamp, elastic etc.)
