Hello everyone and welcome February on The Lounge.
Well what a month or so it has been......from the devastating floods in QLD and Victoria to the bushfires in WA and this week the destruction left behind in the wake of Cyclone Yasi and a heatwave in certain parts of the East Coast....Australia certainly is a land of extremes.
There have been so many appeals set up to help those that have been affected by these natural disasters.
I hope if you have been unaffected by these disasters you have been able to help out in some way through one of the appeals.
The Lounge is supporting the "HEART CARDS" appeal - and many of you have already contributed.
You can get more information and updates on the "Heart Cards" appeal here
We have a busy month ahead on The Lounge.
Hope you get the chance to pop by and say hello and maybe join in some of the fun.
This month's challenges are well underway.
And the Creative Team - Ann, Danie, Jody and Kym have done some simply gorgeous examples using a product pack provided by me.
This month's sketch was designed by CT member Kym
And here are the girls examples - both layouts and a card.
Danie
Jody
Kym
and finally the card Ann created based on Kym's sketch.....
Aren't they all simply gorgeous....???
You can see what our Lounge Ladies have come up with using Kym's sketch as inspiration here
All entries in the sketch challenge this month are in the running for $15.00 voucher from our newest sponsor, Chocollo Cards and Crafts
This month's technique is stamping and embossing.
And here are the examples that our Creative Team have come up with.....
Jody
A very cute little card designed by Danie.
We will have a "how-to" up here on the blog in the next few days.

Another lot of stunning examples from our very talented Creative Team.
You can see what our Lounge Ladies did with their examples here
And again, our wonderful new sponsor, Chocollo Cards and Crafts, is providing a $15.00 voucher for this challenge so why not upload an entry to the gallery...???
This month's cybercrop will take place from Friday midday, February 11 to Monday midnight, February 14 and I feel that there may be some LOVE in the air this month....LOL
Keep and eye out here for some clues from the Creative Team in the days leading up to the CC - they are always such a tease with them.
I hope that you all have a fabulous weekend and that wherever you are in this beautiful country of ours that the weather is being good to you.
Have a happy, scrappy weekend
