Oooh.. we have lots to update you on in this post. I'm sure many of you have been waiting to read this.
First off, we want to announce the random draw winner for November prize package from Elle's Studio. We had sooo many beautiful layouts uploaded last month and all these entries were entered into a draw and the number picked was:
CONGRATULATIONS CHRISSY!! :) We will need your contact details so please email us. Once again we want to thank Elle's Studio for the wonderful prize package. :)
We are constantly amazed at the beautiful creations in our gallery every month. We hope our sketches have been providing you with lots of inspiration. :) Here are some layouts that caught our eye for November:
Beautiful layouts, aren't they? THANK YOU all for playing along.
We would also like to take a moment to say 'thank you' and 'goodbye' to one of our founding members and inspirational designers - AnnaMarie Mondro. AnnaMarie has decided to step down from the team. Our heartfelt thanks go out to her for her wonderful inspiration and contributions to Inspired Blueprints. We wish her all the best for the future and hope to see her around the IB family! :)
Lastly, it's the news everyone's dying to know... who made it to our design team. We received an overwhelming response to our Designers Call held over the last 2 weeks and we cannot say enough, how humbled we are that so many of you want to be part of what we do. We really wish we could take everyone in ... believe us. There was so much talent and that made our decision really difficult. But after much consideration, we are happy to welcome the following 8 new designers to Inspired Blueprints:
- Christie Wildes (USA)
- Helen Salthouse (UK)
- Jennifer Yates (USA)
- Lynlee Rutter (Australia)
- Lynn Kopas (USA)
- Nicole Martel (USA)
- Sarah Ward (Australia)
- Yasu Kataoka (USA)
Please help us in welcoming these ladies to the team. There'll be lots of inspiration from them in the coming months and you'll see them alot around the online gallery. We will be introducing each of them a little more over the next few weeks so watch for that, as well as their creations come January 2009.
Finally, we want to thank all who submitted for the call. Thank you for allowing us to indulge in your work. We hope to see you submit again for our next call. :)
Congratulations, girls! I cannot wait to see what you all do! Although I am going to miss AnneMarie!! smiles....
