Happy Monday!
>> Monday, October 3, 2011
Hope you all had a great weekend. My kids had Thursday and Friday off, so it was really nice to just hang out, do daytrips around our town, and cook and eat a lot.
You probably noticed some changes in our blog during the summer. We strayed a bit from our more scheduled blog posts to give all the team members more flexibility in a time when a lot of families are traveling. But starting now, we are going back to our regular schedule. That means once a week, we'll have our Focus On feature back, we'll have days showcasing layouts, another for cards and altered items, yet another for a step-by-step look at how our team members create their projects. We will also bring back our challenges (complete with prizes, of course) every other week on Wednesdays.
On top of that, we'll mix in some Studio Visits, Lily Bee News, Guest Designers, and our favorite Friday Finds, when we highlight your Lily Bee projects.
Later this month, we are going to be having a Blog Hop with one of our favorite manufacturers. We'll have some hints along the way.
Before I go, I wanted to share this super cute canvas created by our team member Katja Schneider. She altered Lily Bee paper with stamps, bling, ink, glitter, paint. Love the result!

I think you should briong challenges back. Personally, when there were challenges, I really used to scrap with one - your- company products, mostly. Without them, I scrap for other companies or mix all of them together.. And it's challenging.
I think you're doing great! I'm looking forward to the normal schedule and I'm positive it will be great. So I'm sorry, no ideas from me, since I'm 100% happy!
I <3 blog hops and contests! I think you guys are doing a GREAT job though!
I love the blog hop idea, as well as studio visits! I like the challenge idea too.
I agree... I love doing blog hops and challenges! Those would be my top 2 picks!
I'm new to your brand and your blog, I just bought my first Lily Bee collection last week. What I'd like to see are step by step tutorials, especially for decor projects.
I would love to see more giveaway opportunities and scrapping challenges. I find it is easier when a goal is in mind
Another vote for challenges ;)
I'm excited about getting more inspiration on the blog. I've loved your products from the beginning.... It's great to see you continue to grow and evolve. I think challenge with giveaway would inspire creativity and give incentive for new customers to make that first LB purchase to enter (they will be hooked lol) for a chance to win more goodies
I wish you made digi items!
I love challenges because they get me to use up my stash!! Can't wait until they start up again!
challenges and how to's :)
I would love to see you showcase a project made by your designers, and have them do a giveaway by leaving a comment. ( Basicly, what you are doing with this post.) I love to see samples made with your products, and don't have time for blog hops. They just take so much time. Thanks for the chance to win. nathansmom7@gmail.com
I love challenges and tutorials!
As a card girl, I would definitely love to see more of them on the blog!! Thanks for the chance to win!!
I love seeing layouts...keep them coming! Challenges are always fun too!
personally I would loveeeeee to see some challenges and more tutorials on how you did that :) But I loove your blog and I love Lily Bee!!
Love seeing step by step tutorials! Also love challenges and giveaways are good too! Just love seeing different ways to use the papers - which I LOVE. Thanks for the inspiration!
I just found out about your site from Lain Ehmann's RT. But I love your products and just ordered some from 2 Peas. Personally, I always appreciate tutorials and challenges as they usually inspire me to try something new.
I love challenges. Gets me back into "scappin" mode.
What about a Design on a Dime theme? This could include projects, cards, layouts all made from one set of paper. This theme could also incorporate using scraps to make and enhance layouts, cards, and projects. Just a thought...Keep up the great work!
I love what you're doing! I'd love to see more 12x12 patterned paper that isn't broken into smaller cards. I love them, but I also love my 12x12! Thanks and keep it up!!
I adore your papers...we need to see more hexagons :). I like the idea of challenges too.
Card challenges!!!
Love everything! Would love to see a mini hexagon paper in several different colours! thanks
I'm new to your blog...but I have always loved your products! I am looking forward to seeing the DT projects and I think a challenge every month or every other month would be awesome! :):):):):):)
Challenges and tutorials are always a plus! Have been familiar with your goodies since 3Scrappy Boys had some LB in one of their kits about a year ago! Great intro!
I would also like to see challenges also!!!
i'm easy-i love seeing all the layouts and cards! keep 'em coming!!
Love your paper and I like blog hops to see different ideas!

I always enjoy posts with home decor items, even simple decorated frames inspire me. Guests are always fun especially my favorite designers like kelly goree, kristina werner, betsy veldman, michelle phillips I could go on and on. Thanks for wanting our feedback!
Love lily bee, unfortunately I can not purchase any where close to me... Would love to win the goodness...
I love challenges and sketches! Also love to see how others have used your products in creative ways!
I love see layouts since most of my crafting time is used for scrapbooking.
I'm a video girl and absolutely love watching people create things. Sometimes seeing the actual process they go through can be very inspiring! So, I'd love to see some of that if possible. :)

I am definitely a fan of the challenges and I would love to see more of the other blog reader's projects.
I like blog hops as it introduces me to new designers' blogs. However, the long blog hops are too difficult to keep up with especially if you have only minutes here and there to visit each blog and can't remember if you've been there or not.
I like easy altered projects. Guest designers are good. I also like the start-to-finish types of posts because I get to see the designer's thought process. Thanks!
love looking at the inspiration you get from others but a good challenge is good too!!!
I love design challenges and contests. I also love your products!
Contests and challenges are always fun! I also like seeing the work of new names - people I might not find in other places!
I would love to have challenges as they are so inspiring and I have only just found your papers and they are so hard to get in my area
I would love to see sketches and blog hops....
I'm fairly new to your blog and your papers, but I love what I've seen and used so far!
Add my vote for challenges! I <3 them, almost as much as I <3 Lily Bee.
I really love your challenges. I also like seeing the dt's do a challenge and how they all do it differently.
some challenges would be great..including a card challenge..love your blog though..and gorgeous products! :)
Gosh, I don't know. I love every thing you have. Your collections are always the perfect size and you don't have a kajillion embellishments that I have to buy. You're perfect as far as I'm concerned. :)
I like stopping by to see what others have created, and who doesn't love prizes?!
so darling and cute. I just found you and I am in love
I love scrapbook pages & mini albums, along with tutorials!
I'm all for product/idea challenges, sketches, and as always DT inspiration...things to get me thinking & creating with all my gorgeous LB products! :)
