Here’s the SKETCH FOR YOU TO TRY. **Remember, if you are uploading to SCS, use SFYTT as a keyword**

Please note that the starburst in this sketch resembles any embellishment you choose to use.

Here’s my sample, with a close up of the bling bling snowflake:

Do you want this card? I will RAK one random SFYTT participant that links their project using this sketch on this post on Wednesday.

Guess what today it? It’s Celebrating MFT Day!! On the 20th of each month, it will be time to Celebrate MFT. What the heck does that mean? Well, on the 1st new sets were released. If you ordered them then, they should be in your hot lil’ hands and you are ready and set to play. Just upload a card or project using your MFT sets. There is a thread HERE where you can link your project, and if you are uploading to SCS, use the keyword MFTOCT07. This is not a contest or game or any sort, just a chance for us to all get together one day a month and have some fun!! Here’s my card…

Hi ladies {and gents?}!! It’s time for another “Sketch For You To Try.” While perusing {and ooohing and aaahhhing at} Beate’s blog, I saw that she had some of her friends joining her to make samples for her sketch. I thought that was a pretty nifty idea, so I asked a few friends if that was something they wanted to do and they said, “Heck yea.” So without further ado, here is this week’s Sketch For You To Try and some awesome samples.

***If you upload to SCS, please put the keyword SFYTT***

Here is a gorgeous sample from Shannan Teubner:

I LOVE how Carole Burrage used the Big Bold Birthday set!!!

Susan Liles knows how to make Santa look gooood!! PS-I get to go to the Royal Princess Tea Party she speaks of in her post today. How excited am I???

Have fun playing with this sketch and be sure to link it in the comments here!! I can’t wait to see what you come up with!

A couple of week’s ago I sent out a challenge to a few friends. The challenge was to use this super cute image from Penny Black (available at eclectic Paperie) in a card or project. I just love what everyone came up with!! Here is the card I came up with (nope, it’s not using the sketch for today)…

The DP is from Heidi Grace and the letters are from the Cuttlebug Red Tag Alpha (the one MUST HAVE alpha).

Here is my sample for the Sketch For You To Try {see post below for sketch}. This is one of the new stamps that I got on my little shopping adventure with the local SCS girls on Tuesday.
