Thank god for my team. Like an overpriced pair of lululemon yoga pants, they make me look GOO-OOOD. Without them, my creativity would have shriveled up and died alone in a corner eating a Twinkie a long, long time ago.Their enthusiasm, imagination and occasional last minute demands (“oooohh, we like these, can you make them in 20 more colors?”) has inspired me to create some of my most favorite products to date. And I hope they have inspired you too and given you some interesting, new and creative ideas for your pages and projects.

I started a minty tradition two years ago of showcasing the BEST pages and projects of the year from my super talented creative team – and it’s been another great year, creatively speaking. Of course by ‘best’ I really mean ‘my personal favorite’ as what truly qualifies as ‘the best’ is all a matter of opinion. However what won’t be disputed is the fact that I definitely have a talented group of girls on my hands! I hope you find some inspiration for the pages you plan to create this year!

So without further ado, may I present you with..

THE BEST LAYOUTS OF 2011 AS CREATED BY ME  & THE MINT CHICKS!

That kind of sounds like the name of a bubble-gum tween pop group.

Now playing…’Me & the Mint Chicks’.

[INSERT THEME SONG HERE]

Who’s going to do the cheesy dance moves? Anyone?

Who’s going to be the cutie break-out star that leaves the group for a  lucrative solo career at the height of our success leaving the rest of us clinging to the hope that we can score stints on Dancing with the Stars or Celebrity Rehab?

But I digress…

You can find even more fabulousness in our Design Team Gallery which is definitely worthy of space on your list of bookmarks.
