Spotlight Artist: Peta & other stuff

I have given thought to the Spotlight Artist. There is NO WAY I will be able to scraplift on a daily basis and still design things myself, so I have decided to make this a "every now & then" kind of thing. Sometimes it may be once a week, sometimes every other week and sometimes 3 times per week! You just never know! :) It's my blog so I figure I can change the rules if I want to! <--- Yes, that's me playing the "blog card", LOL Anyway, I couldn't let it go another day with having my first Spotlight Artist! I woke up early (as I always do on snow days) and surfed the galleries to see what was new! I settled on a wonderfully designed layout by Peta which you can see in this post on her blog! I met Peta on Robin Carlton's Creative Team. Peta is a super fabulous Australian with incredible designs and a super sassy personality! I just love people who lay it on the line and she certainly does! :)

Here is my layout inspired by hers:
Image hosting by Photobucket
Backgrounds by Christine Smith in her Warmly Yours Paper Pack @ Digitals
Brads & Flowers by Christine Smith in her Paper Petals Pack @ Digitals

In other news...
1. ScrappersAnonymous.com is for sale! We have had a few nibbles but no sale just yet, so I am officially putting this out there. If you have ever wanted to open your own online scrapbooking community or store, this could be the perfect chance! The sale price will include the domain name (which I believe expires in June), the message boards, the art gallery and all current content. Upon purchase, you would be free to make any changes you would like... or keep things just the way the are! Imagine having such an awesome domain name with existing site traffic coming to YOUR site! Email me at inlovewithdots@aol.com if you would like to discuss this further. Feel free to spread the word!

2. If any of you amazing digital designers happen to be getting rid of a well maintained laptop when you upgrade, please think of me. I *really* want one, but it's such a frivolous expense that I can't justify purchasing a new one. I know that any of you talented designers would have the processing speed/memory that I am looking for... and if you happened to leave your designs on there, too, I sure wouldn't cry! ;) So, I am just putting this out there... can't hurt to ask, right?

Since I worked on Guilt Free Digital Tuesday, I think I will take this morning to do another layout or two! See you all out there on the digi boards! :)

Oh, and leave me a note if you stop by, would ya!? I get all excited when a comment email comes into my inbox! :)
