A Layout And Some News

Hi all! I wanted to share a layout with you as well as pass along some fun information. :)

First up, the layout.

 I fully intended to share this with you on Valentines Day, but this month has just not worked out as planned. I think I am just not a fan of Februarys...they always seem to go bad.

 But I am sharing it now. Better late then never.

This layout uses the Love Note collection from Fancy Pants.  I paired it with their awesome black corrugated cardstock and one of their even more awesome stencil cards.

Here are some close up's of my layout:

It also uses adhesive from Tombow and was posted as part of the combined Fancy Pants and Tombow blog hop earlier this month.

And I wanted to make sure that you didn't miss this fun announcement....

The deadline is quickly approaching, so if you are interested you'll want to act fast.  I gotta tell you...I have loved every minute of being on the Fancy Pants team, they are very easy to work with and generous.   It's a great team to be part of!  

Have a wonderful day!!!

Challenge Extended!! :)

Hi all! Just wanted to pop in and let you know that I extended the current challenge to go through the rest of the month. I've been busy, going through stuff plus just had TWO grandparents pass away (two separate occasions) and we've been planning and are going to be traveling. Since the participation was a little low for the last sketch, I am simply extending the deadline. So you still have time to play along, and I hope you do! :)

And I have a great prize coming up for the March 1st challenge, so look for that then!

Sketch 230 Challenge

Hi everyone!  I have loved seeing all the layouts and cards you have done for sketch 229.  I will be back tomorrow to announce a winner.  I like to go through them all, leave comments, and make sure all of the projects have their own link added to the list before picking a winner so everyone get's their chance.  And I just haven't had time to do that yet.

But in the meantime, I owe you a new sketch.  :)

If you are new to my sketches, here's how it works:

I essentially create three versions of one sketch each time. There will be one 12x12 scrapbook sketch, one double page sketch (12x24), and one card sketch (A4). This makes it easier for all types of crafters to participate. :)

Of course, there will be prizes.

So for today's sketches:

Sketch 230a -- 12x12 layout

Sketch 230b -- 2 Page Layout

Sketch 230c -- Card (A4)

And now for the prize up for grabs...
