Happy 2011 everyone and welcome to Lawnscaping!!!! We are SO excited to have you here for our first challenge!!! We have been planning this for quite some time so we are absolutely thrilled that January 3rd is finally here!!! The idea of this challenge site was created by our love and passion for Lawn Fawn stamps!

To play along, our hope is that you will all use at least one Lawn Fawn product. We've got a fabulous design team that is sure to inspire you with their talent and creations.
