Thinking of You

(Are you looking for SketchMania? click here!!!)

I used the sketch from this week's Get Sketchy Which was pretty simple but SUPER cute.

I've been wanting to try out these Distressed paper pieced flowers that are all the rage over at the Polkadot Door. You may have to do a little searching but I'm sure you can find them! Super cute and super fun. I'll have to ask the girls if they have any suggestions, mine just done seem as cute! Anyways here's the card.

SketchMania #4 - 7.28.10

Hello! Welcome back to SketchMania this week! (I apologize for the late post.. I usually have it set up to automatically post at 12:01 AM, however I was not in top mood yesterday :P) And a big regular welcome to all our new players!

I'd like to say thank you to AJ for using us as one of her Blog Challenges this previous weekend!

Don't forget we have CropChocolate as our sponsor with a $15 crop credit to use on their site! (we are combining July and August for this prize and will be adding more to it)

As well as all July sketches close on the 31st with the exception of TODAY's which will close on the 3rd of August.

Just submit your name and a link to the direct blog entry of your submission! (remember, if you're our winner, we'll need to be able to contact you!)

Box-a-licious!

AJ over at A Chocolate Daily decided to host a scrap stashtacular this weekend! I may be getting a bit of a late start but she's been generous enough to give everyone until next Saturday to complete. This is what I did for Challenge #6


She wanted any box! I used Crate Paper, raffia, hot glue, and tim holtz distress ink.

SketchMania Prize July-August

The people over at CropChocolate have generously agreed to be the sponsor for the month of August with a $15 dollar crop credit prize! Since July is coming to a fast short end and we started later in the month I figured we could combine July and August for that prize. (I will be adding some other things to the prize through August so keep your eye out for those too!)

If you haven't seen CropChocolate.com I suggest you head on over and see what it's all about! They cycle through deals (continually adding new ones) with some FANTASTIC prices on all your favorite scrapbook brands. They also offer free shipping over $60 in the US. Check it out! It's well worth it. (P.S. no worries if you haven't been there, it will still be super easy to get your credits to you!)

And because we're combining July and August this means that those of you who have been playing since the beginning will have up to 8 chances for the prize! You will each be entered for the amount of times you played!

Thank you all for continually playing and we welcome any new players as well! And Remember: all sketches are open until the end of the month with the exception of the last sketch each month.. we give you a full week to complete it! (and the very first sketch because the linky closed before we could change it to stay open, sorry!)

SketchMania #3 - 7.21.10

Welcome back! Hope you had fun with last week's sketch and have been looking forward to this weeks!

Not much to mention except that each week I'm honored to show you what the lovely design team ladies do.. and this week we've added another! If you remember from the SketchMania Details Purnima will be joining in our fun when she can find the time and energy, and I've offered her this circumstance because just like the other ladies' work I'd like you all to see hers as an example whenever possible! Creativity should not be stifled just because it can't reach a deadline.. right Rachel? ;) ♥

P.S. I've also added a share button to the bottom of each post where you can share our sketches! remember to link back here (I think it does it automatically) Now you can show all your friends the fun sketch you play along with each week via facebook, twitter, mail, and a couple of others!

So without further commentary here is the sketch and our examples:
