Here is some information about the company:


Welcome to my "About Me" information. As the years passed I became interested in decorative painting. I took some lessons and loved it. I soon put out a painting book of my own. I have done many painting projects for the major painting magazines. I have taught at national conventions as well. I have a total of 5 books published internationally. I opened up my own website to sell my books and also patterns that I was doing. I sold a lot of my handpainted items on ebay and met many wonderful painters there in the process. After about 5 years of that, scrapbooking caught my attention. I just couldn't figure out what all the excitement was about. So I started investigating this craft. I saw all the little furry animals being made out of paper and decided I wanted to learn how to do that. While still painting and keeping my website running, I began scrapbooking. I find it is a very creative industry and one that seems to have no end! I love making the tear bears and all the other animals you can make using paper. I am also doing layouts which is a lot harder than it looks. But I am enjoying every minute of it! This is the only art I have found that is not confining. If you can make something and put it on a page regardless of what it might be, that is scrapbooking!! Who knew? Not me, but now I do know and I love the creativeness I have found in scrapbooking and plan to continue in this industry for years to come! that is scrapbooking!

Okay now for the details of the contest:

1. When I think of bears, the first thing that comes to my mind is BROWN, BABY and hearts.....SO.........we want to see a project (any type is fine) that uses the main color of brown with a heart somewhere on the project, geared towards something for a baby...(baby card, baby layout, altered baby item) etc.....

2. You must use at least one cut from ANY of the many cricut cartridges......
