Sketch-y Friday

Hi there and happy Friday!

As always we have a new sketch to share with you .

 This sketch was designed to inspire you to tuck lots of little bits onto your page, and maybe use something a little different that you might normally use, like burlap or an onion bag for example.

This is Elaine`s take on it...

 I love the variety of embellishments, so much to look at and such a sweet photo too!

Now it's your turn!  Play along and share it with us!

Here is a run down of the rules.  We are offering a little prize to one lucky scrapper that participates in at least 2 of this month's 4 sketches.  Just link up your creations at the bottom of each Sketch-y Friday post, all qualifying scrappers will be entered into a random draw for a prize.  Only one entry per sketch please.  You have until Thursday November, 29th at midnight to participate in any of November's sketch challenges, each linkup tool will remain open until that date!  But remember, you must play along with 2 different sketches for a chance to win!  (International participants may be required to pay some shipping fees. ) Who knows, maybe we will run this challenge month after month if you love it and keep playing along!

Thanks for visiting!

Tutorial Wednesday - Door Hanger

Hi there!

I have a new tutorial o share today.  I created this door hanger on Monday, featuring a sweet digi from Whimsie Doodles.


 Here is the template that I created to make this door hanger.....



Once you have the base created you can go ahead and decorate it as desired.  Better yet, pull out your scraps and alpha stickers and have the kids make some on a rainy afternoon.

Thanks for visiting!

November Colour Challenge

Hi there!

Welcome back to another ScrapMuch? Colour Challenge!  I hope you play along with us this month.  I chose colours based on the products I played with for this month's reveal.
Kelly Green, Sunny Yellow, True Blue, Black Jack
All you have to do is create a new paper crafted project, of any type, that uses the colours from the challenge and post it on your blog or any other online forum  (ie. your Flickr Account) that you can link us up to, by our deadline. You can even play by uploading your layouts to your Facebook page.  Then click on the title of your blog post, copy the URL from the address bar at the top of your screen, and link it using the Inlinkz tool below below.

Please share the challenge colours on your blog (just copy and paste them) and show a link back to this site to encourage your readers to play along as well.  You can link up your projects here for 3 weeks following the challenge and then we will choose a few lucky participants to feature on this blog.
 
One lucky participant will be winning a prize, drawn randomly!!  Woot Woot! It doesn't get much better than that!  Everyone is welcome to play, though there may be some shipping charges to our international winners.

The deadline for linking to this challenge is Monday, November 26th, 2012 at midnight

Now run don't walk to your scrappy supplies because we can't wait to see what you create!

Thanks for visiting!
