The Lollipop Girls and I challenge you!

That's right! I and the NEW Lollipop Girls challenge YOU! To what? To our very 1st challenge of the New Year. The theme of this challenge is "I" and you are to interpret that however you wish. Take a look at how the Lollipop Girls went with this idea and then show us what you can do.

"I also want to say farewell to the "ex-Lollipop Girls" Jennifer Priest, Elina Koutsouradi, Jenny Brannies, Jennifer French, Sandra Polette, Jennifer Matott and Michelle Jacknicke. You girls were a total blast to work with and luckily I am still having the privilege of working with most of you on other projects. Thanks for your hard work, dedication and for being a valuable asset to C.S.D. I can't forget the wonderful sponsors we had for the first term: Bad Girls Kits, Studio Calico, E.A.D. Designs, Memorable Seasons, Color Me Miki, Boojiboo, Stop and Scrap and Blue Moon Scrapbooking. Without their help C.S.D. wouldn't be such a rewarding place. Thank you all for your support!" ~xoxo

Who am I?
I look at myself in pictures....I don't see the real ME.

but I do have intentions and this year I intend to paint a lot more, to love spontaneously a lot more and to laugh out loud a whole lot more

Chris recorded her 2010 resolution-type layout.

I need to be nicer to ME
After having had a long year full of challenges, hard work, personal achievements and difficulties I have realized I need to be a bit nicer to ME. If I don't take care of me, noone will thank me or do it for me. I need to give myself a bit of credit for all the things I do and achieve. My only new years resolution is to take care of ME for once.

by Annika Prestwich a.k.a. Pink Coffee Bean

I swear
