New Year, New Team Blog Hop

I am so excited that for the new year but one of the things I am most excited for is the new term of the Crop Chocolate Design Team.  To announce the new team we are doing a blog hop.  For our DT application we had to make two projects, one that was something out of the box and another that was more our style.  I always struggle with altered things so I tried this candle holder for my out of the box technique



And this Quad Easel Card was my "Me" project





Here is my headshot



And now for 5 fun things about me:

1.  I have the greatest family in the world and they really pick me up when I need it
2.  I love to use bling on my projects
3.  I love to get jewelry as gifts
4.  I only wear jewelry on special occasions
5.  I have always been a crafter and now my 6 yr old daughter considers herself a scrapbooker

Please go to the next stop on the hop to Karen's blog

    Great projects, Corrie! I have to try an easel card sometime. You make them look so easy, but I'm sure I'd struggle. Love your facts about you!

    My kids used to craft with me too. They're boys, so now only one still considers himself a crafter and will sometimes go with me to craft classes :) It's a joy. I really love both your projects and think I need to try that quad card!! Looking forward to serving with you on the DT!!

    I love the candleholder, I'd love to try that for a pencil holder for my desk. The card is awesome, too. I am a follower.

    Neat projects. I don't think I have ever seen a QUAD easel card before! My oldest daughter has been bitten by the craft bug too and even my son likes my die cutting machines.

    Corrie, your cards always amaze me-and that one is soooo amazing! I still want to try one of those clothespin candle holders-bought the clothespins this week :) I am looking forward to seeing some beautiful blingy projects from you.

    Hi Corrie, enjoyed reading your fun facts, I love bling too, it just really gives everything a finished look! Love your projects and am looking forward to working with you on the DT. Glad to hear there is another gadget girl around, maybe we can compare gadgets :)
