Designer Survivor Finals!

That's right, it's the final week of Designer Survivor! What a whirlwind this experience has been. I've had so much fun and gotten to know some really wonderful designers!

My final kit is inspired by the mystical beauty of the East. You can snag it for a very limited time! Voting to choose the "sole survivor" of Designer Survivor will take place by members of the jury - those designers who have already left the island. The final tribal council will be held Friday night! Thanks so much to everyone for your support and following this dynamic design event!

Here's my final Designer Survivor kit; Midnight in Morocco!

We've arrived at week 5 of Designer Survivor! Wow - what a fun and amazing ride this has been! I've met some of the most amazing and truly loving designers through this competition. I'm pretty sure I'll be a little lonely for all of them when my time on "Extraction Island" comes to an end! Our reward challenge this week was to make a set of at least five word art items following a theme of our choice. As the mother of four daughters, I chose Sisters as my theme. Here's a preview of my contribution for this week's reward challenge.


In order to snag these fun word art pieces here's the scoop:

As always, thanks so much for your support. Your votes have helped myself and the teams that I have been on to win immunity and some awesome rewards each of the last three weeks!

Our Week Five challenge was to create a kit representative of a specific time in history. I chose the era of 1900 for my Victorian Rose kit. This kit contains 12 papers and 15 elements.


You'll be able to download my Victorian Rose kit only until Tribal Council concludes on Friday, so you may want to hurry! While you are at it, you'll be able to check out all 7 of the remaining designers' kits!

Week 4 Reward Challenge!

Wow - time is flying! School started again this week. For those of you that don't know, I am a high school teacher so I'm busy getting back in the swing of the school year!
It's also reward challenge time again! To bring you up to speed; the Designer Survivor game is full of twists and turns. We're now down to ten designers and instead of working and competing as teams, we are now all on our own! Our regular challenge this week was issued by the folks at Digiridoo. Look for those "white wedding" kits by Thursday of this week! Our reward challenge this week was to create quick pages or a brag book using our kit from last week's emotions challenge. I've got six 8x8 quick pages for you this week. I hope you like purple!

Here's a preview of the quick pages:
