Winner for Expressions Vinyl & Random Drawing

Oh my gosh, the entries for this contest were gorgeous. The design team poured over each and every one of them and it was such a difficult decision for us. Thank you everyone for entering the contest.

The entry with the most votes was for Margaret from Paperwanderings. Her Valentine's themed box with the mini album and cards was just pure eye candy.


Congratulations Margaret. I'll get with you to get your address. Expressions Vinyl has a generous prize package for you.

Bitten by the Bug 2 is now going to have a random drawing!! A Peek Into Yesterday has offered up a $20.00 Gift Certificate to their store. This just happens to be my favorite store in the whole wide world.

All you have to do to be eligible for the drawing is leave a comment. We'll pick a random person in one week for the gift certificate.

Thank you again for all your support.

Contest Time!

I promised you a contest and here it is! It's Bitten By The Bug 2's first (of many) contests. Expressions Vinyl has a generous package of vinyl ready to ship to the winner of our next contest.

All you need to do is make a Valentine's Day project using any cut from any Cricut cartridge that you want.

Ok, but it's not that easy. I'm going to make you work for it. You have to add the color purple to your project. It doesn't have to be a lot. Just a little touch if you want or make the whole project purple.

I know you can do this and we can't wait to see what you create. To enter, please add your link to McKlinky below.

The contest is open until January 26 11:00 MST. We'll draw a winner by February 1st.

A Child's Year ...Valentine challenge...Expressions Vinyl

Hello everyone! Valentine's Day is just around the corner and what better time than now to start your projects. You're going to LOVE what these ladies have created this week. Jennifer Wuthrich chose the Valentine's cut from A Child's Year for this week's challenge. Jennifer is feeling a little under the weather this week so I'm going to do the introduction. If you feel up to it, maybe you could leave her a "get well soon" comment on her blog.

BBTB2 also has their very first sponsor! Expressions Vinyl is hosting the designers this week. Psssst....watch for a new contest this week.

Here's a little bit about them:

Expressions Vinyl sells craft vinyl for all your scrapbook vinyl and vinyl crafting needs.

We sell the same craft vinyl that Provo Craft sells for their Cricut vinyl. We cut out the fancy Cricut vinyl packaging and the distribution system to bring the same high quality Cricut vinyl to you at a fraction the cost.


If you've never used vinyl, that's not a problem. They have numerous How-To videos here.

I had never used vinyl before and was slightly intimidated by it. After watching some of the videos, I think I'm hooked. It's so easy and so much fun!

Look at all the different colors they carry, too! I'm going back to buy more. :)

So, without further ado, here are this week's projects from the BBTB2 designers. I'm suddenly in the mood for a big red heart filled with chocolates...

I've had a few questions asked about the challenges. Let me see if I can answer some of them here. The challenges run for 2 weeks. You can share your finished project with us and everyone else by adding your link to McKlinky below. You can link either your blog or another on-line gallery you have. If you don't have an on-line gallery, you can start one here at A Peek Into Yesterday. You can post ANY type of project you make. We love to see layouts, cards, boxes, anything you can think of. Please share with us! Thanks!
