LLWWC34 - Time to get Scrappy!

Welcome to the La-La Weekly Wednesday Challenge!

Happy Wednesday! I'm Jane and I am your challenge hostess this week. First, a big THANK YOU to all you who played in last week's sketch challenge!!! We LOVE seeing your creations using La-La Land Crafts stamps and digi images!

We have a new challenge for you this week to go along with a NEW RELEASE! That's right, we have 7 new images for your wondering eyes to behold. Yesterday, you got a little peek (and hopefully played along with our fun game!) and now you get to see all these fun additions to La-La Land. First up, the winner of our $25 shopping spree in the La-La Land Crafts Boutique is Marilyn Scheller. Congratulations Marilyn!! We will email you the details on how to redeem your credit!

And now...here they are, our fabulous new stamps!

First up, introducing our first new digital character, Lucky!

And our sweet new little digi kitty, Sherman

Rosie is back in a new digi stamp sporting some adorable new wings, here is Fairy Rosie

Lala is back too, and she's taken up swimming with her lovely new tail, here is Mermaid Lala

And Princess Lala is ready to win the Prince (or realize she doesn't need one!)

And check out that beautiful bouquet Maya has, all ready to give to her mom, or a good friend!

And a sweet new Rosie is sitting Pretty.

These stamps are all available now in the La-La Land Crafts Boutique...so go check them out after you've looked over the wonderful challenge cards we have for you below!

This week, I want to see what you can make with the SCRAPS that you have lying around. If you are like me, you have folders and bins of scraps stored away just for the right card... or maybe you have some lying around on your craft table (like me). LOL! Scraps are everywhere in my craft room! So now is the time to get your collection out and put them to good use! Scraps of cardstock, designer paper, ribbons... whatever you have lying around.

You can see what our fabulous Design Team and Guest Designers came up with below using the images from the new release.

Since I used Lucky for my card, he is on sale for 20% OFF through next Tuesday!!!

Also, one player will WIN a $10 Credit towards any rubber stamps of your choice in the La-La Land Crafts store!! And three of you will be awarded this TOP THREE award badge to proudly display on your blog!

Here's what you need to do to be eligible to win the prize or Top Three badge:

1. Create a NEW card/project for the challenge using the sketch shown above. You are more than welcome to combine challenges!


2. Everyone is welcome to play, but to qualify for the Top Three badge and/or the prize your project MUST have a La-La Land Crafts stamp on it!! You are welcome to use any other stamps along with La-La Land Crafts images, such as sentiments, background, etc.

Happy Birthday Sparkle!

Hello and Happy Monday Everybody! Today is a very special day at La-La Land! Today is Sparkle’s Birthday, our Guest Designer! Not only Sparkle has a very beautiful name, but also her cards are so much of a joy to look at! They are so colorful and fun; they have the prettiest embellishments and variety of unique layouts… And what I like the best about her cards, they are so personal. She creates them for her friends and family and tells different stories about it. I like visiting her blog and reading her posts, and that is what makes her art one of a kind!

So, Happy Birthday Sparkle!!! May your day be as wonderful as you are!

Our awesome Designers and Guest Designers prepared a little celebration for our Sparkle. Each of us created a card and wrote a special post in honor of this special day.

Let’s have a look…

Elena and sweet Cupcake Rosie:

Jane with Birthday Present Rosie:

1LuvMama and adorable Lala with Heart:

Kim and very cute Birthday Lala:

Kristine and pretty Porsha:

Jana and wonderful Porsha:


Irina and yet one more Porsha ;-)


Hope our Birthday Girl will love this birthday surprise. Why don’t you join us and leave some love and warm wishes for Sparkle too!

Thank you so much for stopping by and we will see you tomorrow with the lucky winners of the LLWWC #32.

Inky hugs,

La-La Land DT
