It’s called "Paper Craft Planet" and all the inhabitants are just like you…devoted lovers of all things papercraft-related. Paper Craft Planet is an online community for papercrafters that is filled with many familiar faces and a stellar amount of inspiration where we share tutorials, videos, photos, and links to all things paper crafting! Susanna Boyd, of Card-of-the-week.com fame began this awesome site, and the community is growing!* (I don't have as much time as I'd like to check blogs so I always really look forward to and appreciate seeing a kind of "Best of/Cool Things" posted all in one spot!) I've been SO honored to have several of my projects recognized on her "Best of the Week", "Tutorial" and "Shout Out" Lists these past several months, so I was just thrilled when Susanna asked me to join the Papercraft Planet Design Team!! YAY!!! I am really looking forward to getting to know and working all the other talented designers (incidentally, there are a few peeps I'm already very familiar with, check and see whom!) So, why not stop by for a lot of fun, weekly challenges, PRIZES, an awesome gallery, tutorials, videos, and a budding design team as we share this craft we all love. Just click on this link above to be transported to a crafty place that's out of this world!

Hi! I went over to sign up at PCP. What a great looking site. Thanks for the heads up. I need to get a Blog going so I can sign up to win more often. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteok I joined and even posted some cards although I have to say that was a painful process the site is sluggish on that. I did notice another way to do it that said it was easier but didn't try it out yet.
ReplyDeleteposted on my blog about your blog so hopefully the news spreads

ReplyDeleteHi Melanie..I just joined PCP. I started my blog last night, but still need to post some projects to share. I better get with it! So exciting! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteoh I'm up and running over there...
ReplyDeleteI just joined :)
ReplyDeletePCP sure made a great choice by asking you to be one of their designers! ;)
ReplyDeleteI joined yesterday (of course you already knew that) but didn't know exactly where to tell them that YOU sent me. You know how it is at my house... just when I get a chance to go online somebody needs attention and I have to leave... makes it so hard to stay focused! LOL
So email me (if you like) and give me a link as to where I can go and shout that I'm so honored that YOU invited me. ;)
I visited "the Planet" and discovered I was already a member but couldn't remember my password. So now I have a new password and I'm ready to go. Thanks for the opportunity to win some goodies!

ReplyDeleteYes! I'm a member and what fun it is...but now I have to stay focused on work and stop running over there to check on things!
ReplyDeletefor heaven sakes, when do you guys sleep? I can read, learn, view and search for hours each day and still don't get to the bottom!
ReplyDeletePlease keep it up and be proud that you need less rest than everyone else!
