Want to see if you won?

We have had SUCH a wonderful time celebrating {i}NSD with all of you! Thank you for visiting The Hybrid Chick this weekend. We hope that you will be back for more great tutorials, inspiration, contests and giveaways! You’ll want to check back with us often because our staff has been collecting some awesome product samples from fun companies, and we are super excited to share them with you!!

Are you ready to find out who won some of the giveaways??

Oh! But wait! How about a quick summary of everything that has happened over here at The Hybrid Chick this weekend?! You can wait a little while longer, can’t you??

First, Sugarplum Paperie’s Nicole Seitler gave away a gorgeous set of digital papers. These papers will always be available here at The Hybrid Chick and can be found in the menu bar at the top of the blog. Be sure to pop in to her post to say a big Thank You!!

Next, I jumped in with a nice, fat hybrid giveaway: a chipboard album, physical supplies from my stash, a HUGE collaboration kit by The Digichick designers, and a template to help you put it all together. Judging from the number of entries, I’d say we need to do this again!!

Julie was up next with an awesome tutorial on making hybrid jewelry. Many of you entered to win her finished projects, and I don’t blame you. Stunning work!!

That evening, I came back on to gush about Jessica Sprague and the amazing classes offered at her site. Jessica offered up a Scrapbook Alchemy class of your choice to 5 different winners. She’s so cool!

After that, LuAnn popped in to give away the Score-Bug Embosser to 5 lucky readers. Hope you entered that one, ’cause that little Bug looks fun!

The next morning, Julie came back to challenge our readers to Box It Up! One random winner will win $25 to my store at The Digichick, and my favorite project will win $5 or a guest spot on my Creative Team!!

Shelley was so excited about the Box It Up challenge that she popped in with a great tutorial about creating a little Box Of Surprises for her mom for Mother’s Day. So cute!!

Sinead, the master of the TDC card swaps, is hosting our first ever Hybrid Chick card swap for print-ready hybrid cards. By the end of the card swap (May 10th), each participant will “walk-away” with a large file of matching ready-to-print-and-assemble hybrid cards that are absolutely perfect for gift-giving. You’ll want to get in on this swap because we have some real card-making masters at The Digichick, and I’ve seen what they’ve been doing. Go check out the gallery, if you don’t believe me! One lucky participant will win $5 to Sugarplum Paperie’s store.

We loved the idea of the cards swap so much, Sinead is making it a special May workshop, too! Go check out her post in the forum to get the low-down.

Ah, where was I? ( I just get so excited about card swaps!!)

Oh, yeah.

Nicole came back to issue a hybrid layout challenge and tell you about another SUPER generous prize from Jessica Sprague! The challenge: follow the guidelines and create a hybrid layout. The prize: The ENTIRE Season One of Jessica Sprague’s Scrapbook Alchemy series. OH MY GOSH! That’s TEN (10) classes in all! Wowsers! And, you have until Saturday, May 9th by midnight EST to enter. Come on! You can do it! Especially since Jessica has a new FREE hybrid class up on her site. Go. Learn from a master. Come back and enter. You know you want to.

Up next, Jen Tapler showed up to wow us with her hybrid masterpieces. She is SUCH a diva. No, really. She is! Jen’s beautiful work typically combines digital papers, traditional products and beautiful stamping. Jen is giving away a HUGE stamp set donated by Verve Stamps (owned by our own Julee Tilman!). Looks like you gals LOVE your stamping! Rest assured, we heard you. We’ll be doing some “inky” tutorials in the future!!

Sharon showed us a quick round-up of hybrid home decor and issued a fun challenge, too! You have until Saturday, May 9th by midnight EST to enter the challenge for a chance to win $10 to Mari Koegelenberg’s shop at The Digichick. We’ve seen some gorgeous entries already. I’m so excited to see what you come up with!!

Speaking of Mari, she posted a fantastic Wooden Clothes Pegs Magnets tutorial which has totally inspired me to create some cute clips. One lucky winner will get the adorable pegs shown in her tutorial.

And, finally, Mel jumped in to show us some of the totally cute and totally USEFUL hybrid projects found in her store at The Digichick. Mel, a preschool teacher, KNOWS how to motivate your little ones to learn and has shared her years of experience with you in the form of cute printables, templates and projects designed with kids in mind. Check out her store to see her entire collection (and keep checking back for more!).

Whew! That summary took me a long time to write!! Good thing it’s still early on the West Coast. I’m gonna go grab a drink of water and come back to post those winners, okay? BRB.

PS – Are you seeing that GORGEOUS project created by ShabbyShaz for our Hybrid Home Decor Challenge? Eeek! I love it! Go leave her some love!
