I just realized that we are missing our 3/12 challenge so I will check on that in a minute.

I am posting this ahead of schedule so you can play with it this weekend. On March 17th post a layout that has you "going green". You can interpret this in several ways, you can recycle product and go the echo green route or find some great green product to showcase. Pick your poison and I will be watching, if you post a layout ON THE 17TH there is an extra prize up for grabs, but I'm not tellin' what! :lipssealed:

So post your layout ON THE 17TH and then let me know here I will be watching! I will post mine tomorrow with a link to the great stuff I used.

Happy scrapping and Happy St. Patrick's Day a few days early!

Today is the day! Happy St. Patrick's Day to you!

You have all day today to post a layout that has you going green in color, reuse/recycle, or your very own interpretation! Add a comment here when yours is up.

I am off to spill the beans about the prize on my blog so come on over to check out my third green layout and find out what you could win!

I just blogged about recycling. But dang, I misread and didn't realise it should be a layout! I was already thinking of doing a LO on the subject but will need to take some more photo's and have them printed. Thanks for the inspiration anyway!

OK Thinkie-
I went and read and I am putting you on the list to go in the hat! BUT now i want to know more! Where do you live is number one on top of the list. And number 2 is, is Thinkie your name, or a username? Just curious. Loved your post well written and so interesting, I am so glad you took it the wrong way. That is a lot of work you do for your recycling!

Thank you! I'm in Zoetermeer, The Netherlands. I'm oficcialy called Kathinka but have often been called Thinkie in real life since I was little. I feel more like a Thinkie than like a Kathinka, so it's not just a username or nickname! I'm still quite new here but starting to feel at home!

That is awesome! And I am so glad you are feeling at home here. There are a lot of us that find this to be the perfect home away from home!

One other question are you a digi scrapper or paper?

And the winner is Jill! I will PM you a coupon code to Scrap This Kit and you can pick out your own goodies. Thanks so much for participating. All of you i know I will be catching up on many of these in the months to come so hopefully others will come back to these prompts as well!

Thinkie, I am so glad you are participating with us as a new member, and Jill I love seeing your face again too. I am glad you have stayed around and found more fun to participate in after doodling! Celia and Jane, as always i love reading both of your blogs! I love the note about your old layouts Jane. I feel the same way!

Oh thanks. This TOTALLY MADE MY DAY especially after I had projects come in from my students and bunches of them came to me whining with excuses about why they didn't have it when we've been working on it for a MONTH! So, I am going to so enjoy picking out scrapbooking goodies for myeself. THANKS!
