Challenge Reminder..

Hey everyone! Feel strange that things have been a little quiet here on the blog with our new *monthly* challenges. I somehow feel like I need to post something here, or announce something or whatever LOL! But its all good..life is just so busy and I think having 1 moth to complete our challenge works well for both you and I. 

So just letting you all know that the current challenge ends midnight April 30th (Australian Eastern Standard Time) so that means you have a little under a week to enter. We have some AWESOME prizes up for grabs this time and remember that we will also be selecting some featured layouts! 

Take care everyone and have a great week ahead :)

 The theme of this challenge is HOME. 

We would like you to create a layout and interpret the theme "HOME" however you like based on the following sketch. You can journal as little or as much as you like, but your layout must incorporate this theme  and this sketch. 

C'est Magnifique Kits is a US based company whose kits predominantly feature 'hard to find' international papers from Denmark, Poland, France and many other countries. We have also featured embellishments from Australia, the UK, Poland and more.  We strive to always be 'different' than other kit clubs and feel you will love our elegant and sophisticated touch.
