Today is my last featured post over on the Authentique blog. Super sad, I know, but I am coming away from this experience with tons of...well...experience! I feel like I've grown so much as a crafter since being a part of Authentique's first design team (as well as my own!!). I've challenged myself to push outside of my crafty comfort zone and I genuinely feel that the work I have created while on this design team have been some of my best.
Alright, sappy stuff aside. Let's get down to business! I have a layout to share with you and then I'll get on with the good stuff...a giveaway!!
This is the layout that I created for my post today:
So pretty, if I do say so myself. :) I love how this turned out! Be sure to check out my post for more details!If you've been following me for a while, you know that I tend to always use a sketch or some sort of inspiration to create from. Well, this layout is no different. I used a sketch from a sketch book I found at my local craft store. I can't show you the sketch because I'd be violating the copyright laws, but just know that it looks like my layout. :)
Now, on to the good stuff! To celebrate (or mourn, you're call) the end of the Authentique design team term, I am giving away one Genuine collection.
Pretty, isn't it? :)
Here is how you win: Become a follower of my blog (and Authentique's blog if you aren't already), then leave me a comment! Simple as that! I'll leave this giveaway open until Saturday, March 31st at midnight CST and I will draw and post the winner on April 1st! Giveaway is for US and Canadian residents only.
Thank you so much for following me on my Authentique DT journey and be sure to stay tuned because there's always something to scrap! :)
Hi Cristine!
ReplyDeleteHow is it that I haven't been following you already??? Love the layout!!! and your giving away the Genuine collections? PINCH ME!!!
Have a great day and thanks for the inspiration as well as the chance to win some goodies!
Awwww! I love this layout so much, and you have done a *fantastic* job on the DT. Truly lovely.
ReplyDeleteYour layout is fabulous - love it! I am a new follower, and wonder, like Deborah, why I haven't been following you already! Thanks for the chance to win. Authentique has become a 'go to' paper for me. There is not one pattern that I don't adore! Thanks again! By the way, your link on the Authentique page does not work - I had to type in the address manually in the address bar. Hugs!!!
ReplyDeleteI just got it all fixed up! Thanks for letting me know!

ReplyDeleteOMGosh! Cristine - this is just absolutely ADORABLE! I love that photo - just TOO CUTE! Why do they have to grow up so quickly - I wish you could just keep them at that age! The papers are just perfect and I love the rosette trim - something I have not experimented with before - but you are inspiring me so much - thank you. Sorry to see your DT term end - will miss seeing all your FAB creations. I am now a follower so will keep watching you (already a follower on Authentique's blog!) Thanks again :-) x

ReplyDeleteBeautiful layout Cristine! I've loved seeing you "grow" as a scrapper and I am a big fan of your work. Thanks for the chance to win! I haven't had the chance to work with much Authentique, but I loved what I did have!
ReplyDeleteHi Cristine, I've just been wandering around your darling blog :) Fun place to visit and you really have a great style!!
ReplyDeleteCristine, I love your layout! It's gorgeous! I love all the pinks! And I can't believe your dt term is over already! I have thoroughly enjoyed all of your work for them! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteYou know I'm already following you both! You made some really great projects and Authentique was lucky to have you!!
ReplyDeleteI love this layout! I love the look of black and white mixed with a pop of color and you did such a fabulous job with it! I must say, I love your title, too, but for different reasons. When my son has me busting up laughing over something he did or because he's in a fit of giggles, I always tell him that he makes me my heart smile so I can totally relate!
ReplyDeleteI follow both yours and A's blog. I have loved seeing all your projects for Authentique. You are amazingly talented and I can't wait to see more on your blog of your fabulous layouts and projects.
ReplyDeleteI love this LO Cristine! Simply beautiful!
