3. Pass it on to 15 other bloggers & let them know

Here are 7 things about me:
  1. I want to be a lawyer. I took a year off after undergrad & ended up falling into the nonprofit sector. That was almost 10 years ago. This year, I plan to take the LSAT and get back on track.
  2. I'm an organizer, even though you couldn't tell by glancing around my house... but if you look very closely, you can see the depth of organization in the areas where I have taken the time to get things in order.
  3. I love my church! I had been on a church strike for some years, but at the end of 2009 I found my "set place" and I am so thankful!
  4. I love bananas!
  5. I often find a way to work something metallic (usually cardstock) into my creations.
  6. The "M.M." stands for Mali's Mom.

It's that Time! The Pursuit for 250 Followers!

I have a plan & I need your help to make it happen. I am on a journey to reach 250 followers. I promised that when I reached 250 followers, I would give away a Cricut cartridge. Well, I am holding to that promise & I am taking it up a notch. SO FAR , I have 2 cartridges to give away - brand new, in the package, reward points in tact, never synced to a Gypsy. So, the plan is this - when I reach 250 followers , I will use a giant bowl (easiest method with all the entries I hope to get) to pick the lucky winner who will get to choose which of the 2 cartridges they would like to have. If I reach 350 followers in that same week , I will pick another winner and they will get to have the other cartridge. Sounds fair enough right? So how do you win? 1. You must be a follower of my blog - that's the whole point of all of this right? 2. Leave a comment on this post to let me know that you are supporting me in my quest to 250 followers. But, I think these things work

I posted a few pictures & promised to come back with the details – and here they are! … interested in hearing more? Well read on to learn how to get this wonderful Elmo image & many more! To do this wonderful trick, you start with your desired image in Design Studio. Here, I am working with an Elmo image from Sesame Street Friends. Here is the base for Elmo. I right-clicked on the mat to change the preview color to black. I added a layer (reordering it to be placed in front of the base layer by right-clicking and selecting "Page Order") using the "Body/White" function key to add Elmo's fur. I changed the preview color to red. On that same function, I pressed the shift key to add Elmo's eyes. Placing this layer in front of the others and changing the preview color to white. I added a 4 th layer (using page order to "Bring
