You will need to stop by certain Team Member's blogs on certain days to be given a series of clues. The official schedule is posted on the Club Anya blog. Each team member will be giving you a special sneak peek of this ADORABLE new set, and a clue for you, in the form of a letter in the alphabet.
Once you have collected ALL FOUR clues, you will have to DESCRAMBLE the letters to form a word. Once you guess what the word is, you will have until Thursday, April 30th, 2009 at 8pm CST to email Jessica with your guess. At that time, all of the correct guesses will be entered into a contest to WIN the BRAND NEW MISS ANYA SET!!!

YAY!! MISS ANYA & A CONTEST!!!!

Happy Weekend everybody!!! How are you?? Seriously!!! Be honest!!! Ok, well, I am GREAT!!! Let me first just SHOUT.."I got my Miss Anya's"!! YAY!! Sorry, I'm good now! Haha! Alright, I decided to go ahead and try my hand at the "Curious Case" contest, going on over at the Club Anya blog!! Haven't visited there yet?? Oh my.....better go NOW!!!! They are having a contest and for the contest, you are to CASE your FAVE card form the TGF gallery!!! Now...you have heard of TGF, have you not?? Oh my,AGAIN!!! If you have NOT?? Follow my side bar down and you will find the link to take you there!!! The Farm is my NEW found LOVE!!! Hehe!! Alright....I know...a LITTLE crazy, right?? Well...you go see for yourself!!! See how you feel, after you have seen all the AWESOME stamps they have!!!! Ok, I got off track there, didn't I ?? Back to the card....
The card I CASE'd is by the WONDERFULLY talented "The Redhaired Girl"!!! I LOVED her card, so that is the one I chose!!! You can check it.....HERE! I got NEW DP yesterday, at ACM. I couldn't resist the sale; I got a 12x12 paper pad, by My Minds Eye!! The original price was $19.99 and it was on sale for $10.00!!! Good deal,right?? Right!!!! So I just HAD to use it for this card!!! I also used my Copic and Prisma markers; along with a little blending to get the right shade!! I layered my DP onto SU CS,added a little various bling, and finished it off with a Gina K sentiment!!! Although I really LOVED the sentiment The Redhaired Girl used, this was the closest I could get!!! I hope you like it as much as I do!!! Just had to share it with you all!! YOU should try YOUR hand at the contest!!! It was SUPER fun!!!
Have a FANTABULOUS,rest of the weekend!!! I am off to post the NEXT challenge...over at Javablustamper & Friends!! HOpe to see you there!!! You never know what might be given away next!!!
