WHOS READY FOR A BRAND NEW CHALLENGE FOR THE NEW YEAR......

Today is the start of a very exiting new challenge blog it's called SKETCH AND STASH, and it's run by the lovely BECKY. I have been choosen as one of the lucky design team members and hope you will join in, have some fun and help makes this a huge sucess.

The idea of this new blog is as follows...Every 2 weeks there will be a sketch to follow. You can rotate the sketch, resize the elements and add extra elements if needed.The second part of the challenge is to use your newest stash on your card. You can use a new paper, new stamp, new embellishments etc. They can all be new or just one thing which is new, that's up to you!When you're posting your card on your blog please let everyone know what your new item is, the make or manufacturer and a link to where you bought it from if possible!But most importantly, HAVE FUN!!

The first challenge for all your keen bloggers is to make a card using the following sketch..... You can make the card any size as long as we can still make the sketch out. Can't wait to see all the different and great design I know you will all make. Once you have made your card head over to SKETCH AND STASH, and add you comment with a link to your blog so we can pop by and see it. If you need a little inspiration you can check the other design team members cards out which are posted on SKETCH AND STASH now.
Here is my card, I have used HOT OFF THE PRESS kit which contains papers, flowers,ribbon and brads, you can buy from QVC, and the stamped image is my new item. I was the lucky wnner of the POLLYCRAFTS blog candy draw and won these wonderful Elves stamps if you woudl like to buy them head on over to POLLY CRAFTS.
