Good morning blog readers! Today it's time for a supersized March installment of I Spy with MME. Every day we scour blogs, online galleries, Facebook, and Twitter to find examples of layouts, cards, and other projects using our products.
Once we find eye-catching,inventive projects...we pin them to our "Inspiring Cards and Layouts" Pinterest board. If you need some majorly inspiring eye-candy to get your mojo going,then head on over! We promise that it will be just the thing to get you creating this weekend. We have some RIDICULOUSLY talented customers and fans! :)
Today we have seven projects that we wanted to share with you. Each designer's name is linked to their blog. So make sure to stop by, say hi, and see more of their talents!

Designer:Rachael Funnell
Rachael says: I created this layout with the MME Collectable Remarkable range as part of my designing work for Anna’s Craft Cupboard. It is about the Ferris Wheel on our recent trip to Luna Park in Sydney, Australia..Although we all chickened out on going on this Ferris Wheel,we all loved standing there, watching this go around & around!!!
Why it caught our eye: This page is an explosion of happiness and MME goodness. We especially loved how Rachael layered our papers, stickers, and enamel dots. Check out the touches of decorative tape, too! This page is fun, creative, and daring. We love that.

Designer:Traci Penrod
Traci says:As scrapbookers, we often scrapbook about other people -- our children and family -- and many of us need a "reason" to document our own stories and photos. The colors in this MME Collectable line are so fun and happy I decided to actually do something for me! Each page will tell about something I love, do, or dream about...starting with the letter A...all the way to Z! Link to additional photos.
Why it caught our eye: We love the way Traci used and combined our Collectable line of papers and embellishments. The color combination is beautiful, the cluster of flowers is perfect, and we love the topic of this album. Thanks for sharing, Traci!
Designer:Jinny Newlin
Jinny says: I fell in love with the Collectable: Memorable line just as soon as I laid eyes on it. I was lucky enough to win the entire collection by being the December Sketch Winner. Woohoo! So, this card resulted from a weekend of playing, as soon as it arrived in my mailbox. I couldn’t possibly love the bright, happy colors any more!
Why it caught our eye: This card makes us long for spring. The colors are so fresh and happy, the floral motif is adorable. We especially love the way Jinny used the days of the week piece of the Memorable 'Journey' patterned paper on the bottom left of her card.

Designer:Mary Ann Jenkins
Mary Ann says:Every once in awhile, you complete a layout and it makes you smile again and again everytime you look at it. This would be one of them. It makes me smile and my heart happy.
Why it caught our eye: Yes, just as the title says...this layout is fabulous. We love the design, the bits of doily and mist combined with sequins, and of course we love the way Mary Ann makes Collectable shine. The "Hello My Name Is" die cut card makes the perfect title for this darling page.♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Designer:Corri Garza
Corri says:I made my card using an SVG File from SVG Cuts Five Minute Cards. When I saw this cute star card, I immediately thought of this star paper from the Boy Crazy Collection....I added some brads and embossing for a quick but adorable birthday card.
Why it caught our eye: Anyone would be lucky to receive this card! We love the star theme and the way the "b" side of the Boy Crazy Word Play patterned paper ties it all together. This card is definitely a star.♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Designer:Brenda Smith
Brenda says:I challenged myself to use up my massive MME stash by mixing old (Ooh La La and Be Loved) and new (Sweetest Thing)!
Why it caught our eye: We are always looking for projects that mix our older and newer lines. Brenda did this seamlessly. This is a beautiful, soft, and creative layout and we are in love with it.♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Designer: Missy Whidden
Missy says: I love the new MME Collectable washi tapes, and I decided to use several rolls to create a messy & artsy (and fast) page with lots of drippy paint and stamps…what a wonderful combination!
Why it caught our eye: This layout jumped right off of the computer screen. It's vivid and so darn smart. Look at how creatively Missy used all of our decorative tape! She combined them perfectly to make one cool page.Thanks for stopping by today, MME fans!
Remember, keep sharing your beautiful creations and you might just be featured in next month's edition of I Spy with MME!
