It’s time for a new Challenge and this week it’s a Sketch Challenge. Create any type of project using any brand of products we carry in the store. You can change the shapes in the sketch but we need to be able to see the Sketch within your project.

One entry will be chosen at random to receive our prize. Three additional entries will be chosen for the “Top 3” based on their creative use of the Challenge theme. One Top Pick will be asked to join us for the Next Challenge as a Guest. The prize winner and top three can all proudly post their brag buttons on their blogs for the world to see! The Linky will close on Friday, November 11th at 11 pm EST. The winner will have TWO weeks to claim their prize. *International winners will be responsible for shipping costs if they choose to claim their prize*

My Favorite Things Forest Friends & Sweet Forest Friends Stamp Sets

I decided to use this faith-based stamp set for an everyday card. I paper-pieced the image and taped off the angel’s wings during the stamping process. The image is stamped on a variety of printed papers and cut out. The pieces are placed together onto a pink printed paper. I used Chameleon Marker set of 5-Skin to color in the hair and skin.

The following Chameleon Markers were used for this card:

Nude, Light Peach, Caramel, Burnt Umber

Thank you for stopping by today! We can’t wait to see what you create for the challenge.

Have a great day!
