Secondly, today is the Tuesday Sketch Challenge at
Skipping Stones Design. We have a new guest designer this month. Her name is
Amy Sheffer. She's come up with a good sketch this week. And BAM...here it is:
You know, me...I had to flip it and add a little of my own flair to this card.
I used the Chocolate #2 set which has not yet been released so keep checking back to
Skipping Stones for a release date. It's such a fun little set. I used some paper from Hobby Lobby, the brown is bo-bunny dot paper, the pink glitter is also from hobby lobby. I inked the edges in Tim Holtz distress ink and topped it off with some stickles and a little glittery brad in the corner.
My favorite part of this set is what I put on the back of the card. A little chocolate fingerprint and saying. Too stinking cute!
Next, I have BLOG CANDY to give away! Yum-o!! And what's even more exiting...it's an almost sold out set of Bra stamps.
I'm going to make you work for this set though...I liked
Erin's rules so much I decided to copy.
You must follow these rules to qualify:
* Create any card or piece of artwork that is based on
any ONE of the sketches at
Skipping Stones.
PLEASE NOTE:
You do not need to use SSD stamps, but if you have them, we’d love to see you using them! You DO have to use an SSD sketch to qualify.
* Post your card on your blog or other forum.
* Copy the URL and post it in a comment on THIS post.
* Link back to this post when you post your card.
I will draw a winner using a random number generator by Friday, January 8th.
I can't wait to see what you all come up with.
Have fun, get busy and be creative! Can't wait to see all your comments and projects! Check back Friday for the winner of MY blog candy but check Skipping Stones for the winner of one of four unreleased sets that they will be giving away.
