A Sad Farewell
Although we are sad to see our Teamie Pauline Bird leave our Mousey Design Team, we are also very proud of her as she is super busy with incredible Magazine work! Isn't that super exciting?  Pauline's work is amazing and it's such a treat to see it in Print! Wont you please join us in wishing her the best of luck?  

DT to Floating DT
We are also making a change with our mega-talented DT Member Natascha Banning. She has had some big changes in LIFE and needs to cut back on her crafting load to focus on Family and Work so has decided to change status with the Team from DT to Floating DT. That means that she will only contribute gorgeous creations as her time allows. As a Mousey Team, we couldn't be happier because we are lucky enough to still have her on the Team, so it's a win win situation for all! :) Thank you Natascha! :)

NEW DT MEMBER (edited March 15th)

Eeeekkkk, with all of these NEW Mousey Family changes, it means that we will be looking for a new Mousey Design Team Member!  So be on the lookout, as we will be watching out for your fabulous work to possibly invite YOU to join our TEAM.

Our Next Challenge will be a very SPECIAL BLOG-HOP- as we will be joining our fabulous Sponsor's DT for a HUGE combined Challenge BLOG-HOP with amazing GIVEAWAYS!  Woweee... doesn't that sound FUN??  Be sure to mark your calendars and DONT MISS out on great fun and awesome Prizes!  March 28th-April 8th.
