**PLEASE READ**
File naming:
Name your files designername_lwalk_element.jpg etc..
This way it is much easier to rename and zip up for us.

And please just make ONE folder inside your zip with everything in that ONE folder. All zips get unzipped, renamed and rezipped and the extra folders make extra work lol. Just put everything in ONE folder. Put alphas in ONE folder together. Thanks guys.

Kit name: In Dreamland
Due Date: January 27, 2010
Theme: Soft and dreamy...ethereal even...I do not want a bunch of sheep, beds, peeps in night caps, or anything like that...just soft patterns and some realistic elements like twine, beads, a bridge even...I'm thinking dreamy like Rachael's beautiful Pixie kit Something different from anything else we have done to kick off the new year

Metal to use to provide continuity: Silver

Each person signed up will be responsible for making 3 patterned papers and 2 element types. If you sign up for an alpha, you only need to do 3 patterned papers in addition (no other element types). If you sign up for quickpages, feel free to use everyone's contributions to create your pages, and you do still need to do your 3 patterned papers.

I have flowers

ESS Jan CAC (Due Dec31)
