Miss Molly is up with her project next! Click over to her blog to see the complete project, with blinged-up cupcakes and more!

Molly is on the design team for Banana Frog and she has an adorable style. My favourite Molly projects are those that have tiny pieces with carefully distressed edges. I could never get things to look so even and perfect like she does! Must be a gift.

A Molly trivia question for you: What television show is Molly super-psyched about this autumn?

Thanks for partying with us, Molly!

Our next sneak peek comes from Stephanie, and she’s sharing the full project on her blog today. I love that she put a vintage spin on the designs!

I started reading Stephanie’s blog when I realised I had bookmarked about eleventy dozen of her layouts in the gallery at Two Peas. Then I bumped into her a few times at CHA last winter, and my goodness, this girl doesn’t stop. You know those energy drinks that will keep people awake for days and days? I have a feeling they don’t have a thing on this girl. She is bubbly to the max. And I love that her pages are beautiful without taking all week to make or using six of the newest and most difficult techniques. I think even The Boy would like her pages because she loves a good selection of supplies stuck together, simply. She makes it look fab.

Stephanie trivia: What kind of new exercise regime has Stephanie taken up?

Stephanie, thanks so much for joining our party! Party on!

Our next project to inspire you comes from Jen who I may secretly refer to as ‘Dr. Jen’ at all times in my head. A doctor who scrapbooks? Seriously, wouldn’t you just feel better at the office? Anyway, I digress. Click here to see the full project on her blog.

Jen does amazing stuff with distressing and bling and the prettiest of papers, so I can wait to see what she’s done for the party. On her blog, you’ll find pretty pages featuring her wedding photos and her travels (and I promise no scrapbooked surgeries or anything else that I do not want to imagine). This girl seems to be calm at all times, so I pretty much want to know…how does she do that? I hope that maybe some of it will rub off by reading her pretty blog.

Some Jen trivia for you: Jen seems to have luck on her side as well as calm. What event did she see recently that most people would only hope to attend, since the tickets are nigh on impossible to come by? (By the way, I asked her what royal she secretly married to secure such tickets and she assured me – calmly – that she merely had brilliant luck in the public drawing!)

The answer to the trivia question is on her blog – if you think you know, post in the comments below!

A warm party welcome to the ever-adorable Kirsty who is another over-achiever: she’s made two projects to share with you today! Click over to her blog to see them.

Despite the fact that she almost lives within walking distance (well, I qualify most of London as walking distance. It just might be a very long walk.), I have never met Kirsty in real life. But of course I read her blog, follow her tweets, talk to her by email – that sort of thing. So now I have this little picture in my head of what her life is like, and I’m almost afraid to meet her because I think my picture could be wrong and I don’t really want to find out. Kirsty is a crafter and a writer by profession and everything she makes amazes me. She works in truly creative ways. She previously posted the pajama project here during A Month of Colour I know you will love her blog!

A Kirsty trivia question for you: What literary classic inspired Kirsty to decorate a carton of eggs?

The answer is on her blog—post your guess here in the comments. {By the way, don’t worry about being ‘too late’ to post the answer to the trivia question. At the end of the weekend, I am going to throw all the trivia question comments in a hat for some prizes—and you don’t have to be first to find the answer.}

Our next party guest, Karen, has not one but TWO projects to show you, the crazy scrapping girl! I think you will love them!

You can find all her notes on her blog, Red Art Scrapping. Karen is all about bright colours and rich layers in her projects and she’s a newlywed so sometimes she blogs extra pretty pages with wedding photos!

Your Karen trivia question: What is the only travel guide allowed in Karen’s house? The answer is somewhere on her blog. If you have a guess, post it here in the comments!

Rebekah is up next with her a page that looks like collage-y-goodness to me! You can see the full project on her blog, The Happy Scrapper.

I first met Rebekah at a weekend crop where she seemed so quiet and shy that I was almost afraid to talk to her—and then it turned out she wasn’t shy at all! She scraps about her son who looks to be growing up quickly! And she also knows how to snap an oh-so-pretty photo of a beautiful bloom.

Your Rebekah trivia question: Why does Rebekah’s dad often have a new puppy?

The answer is somewhere on her blog – post your guess here in the comments.

Our next party guest is the lovely Leena! I Just discovered her work recently in the gallery at Two Peas and oooh, I love it! She makes fabulous scrapbook pages for sure.

One of the things I love most about online classes is working with guest artists and seeing how they interpret an idea in their own style. There are ten guest artists taking part in Go To Press and a few of them have some sneak peeks for you today.

Check out Caroline, Amy and Cindy for just a tiny look at what the class has in store.

If you’ve already signed up for the class, you can already say hello on the private message board, by the way! You’ll find it in your list of boards at Two Peas once you are logged in.
