Week 192: SPROUT

 

It's time to plant a new cue word in your minds so you can start brainstorming again!  Since spring is supposedly arriving in some areas of the world, this word seemed appropriate!

So Suzy Stamps is returning as our wonderful sponsor and there is lots of fun & excitement going on because this month marks their 2 year anniversary!  There are contests going on all month until the 20th (their official anniversary date), so you'll want to stop over on their Facebook Group page to keep up with all the festivities!

This week's winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to the online store!

Take a look at what the design team & our guest designer created this week to inspire you!
