Hooray…it’s the first Saturday of the month and time for another SKETCH FOR YOU TO TRY! I hope that you all have enjoyed all the sketches so far this year. We are just about 1/2 way through the challenge to complete all of the sketches for the year. See the deets below to see how you can be entered for a chance to win a HUGE prize on Christmas Day 2011!

Thank you to last month’s super fabby dabby doo sponsor…YOUR NEXT STAMP. I {heart} them!! This month we have another wonderful sponsor…

STAMPING BELLA!

Here’s my card using one of my favorite images of all time ever, KING OF THE WILD THINGS

Not very king-ish is he? I decided that a little pink would be cu-uuute! Mix that up with some fun girly{ish} papers and it’s more like QUEEN of the Wild Things!

Are you interested in being a Designer of the Month? I choose each D.O.M. from previous month’s entrants. This month, I would like to welcome SFYTT fan {and my friend}, JOANNE BASILE

A little bit about Joanne in her own words…
I’m a mom to two very busy little boys and a home daycare provider. I always joke that I don’t get to buy pink clothes for little girls, so instead I like to dress up my stamps and get girly. I’m blessed to design for My Favorite Things and I love teaching classes at a few local stores here in Massachusetts. I try to find at least a few crafty moments in any given day - I swear it keeps me sane from the crazy busy that is my life! I’m thrilled to be here playing with Jen’s SFYTT this month, they are always a go-to sketch for me!

Isn’t this Bella card from Joanne just so sweet?…

Sony Christoph is taking some time off to work on school and life. She emailed me that she hasn’t had a home cooked meal in a month! Anyone in the Los Angeles area want to bring this special SFYTT Sister some home cooked love?
