Teddy Stampers Celebration & DT call

There's a party goin' on right here
A celebration to last
throughout the years
So bring your good times
and your laughter too
We're gonna celebrate your
party with you!

Who remembers Kool And The Gang 1980 song "Celebration"  One of my all times favorites! So glad you stopped in so I can tell you a very belated "Happy New Year!"  to the Teddy-Bear Stampers gang and everyone else, I have not had the pleasure of saying it to yet!


Today is the first challenge for the Teddy-Bear Stampers  and the recipe is you must have a teddy bear somewhere on your card and this week is Celebrations! Mine card will be for my granddaughter's birthday celebration and the Celebrating my first Challenge blog, see below!! Our sponsor is Whimsy's Stamps and this little sweetie is "Little Girl Bear Hugs!" created by Meigjen's Designs! You can purchase her here! I really heart this one!!


Give a big welcome to the new Teddy-Stampers New Design Team members! They have created as the rest of my team awesome cards for you to enjoy and inspire you!!


Challenges:


                                                  DT Call  
I am trying to rope up some DT's for the new challenge groups at The Outlawz. I am looking for DT's  who love to do layout/scrapbooking, CAS, color or sketch.  You do not need to have previous or current DT experience and want to be a team player. The DT's support one another and we are having a blast at the corral!  If interested please send 3 examples of your cards, layouts or creations that you have created or your blog address,   your name, email address, website/blog address and the reason why you would like to join The Outlawz Girlz!!
