Now Blow Out the Candles!

As the celebration for Sketch~N~Scrap continues, my challenge for you  today is to use bling to brighten up your card or layout. For my project I used a square frame of bling on my card and then used diamond shaped gems to light the candles. The candles are straws cut in half.   Look at all of that bling lighting the candles on this card! Just fabulous!


 
Now for the goodies, for anyone who participates in my challenge I am offering the prize below, the newest Switchboard 6x6 pad and ephemera from Pink Paislee. To enter to win just add your blog link to this post by June 12th, 2014 12 midnight EST.
Additional Rules -
  • Your card does not have to be new as long as it features bling.
  • You may combine this with another challenge either on the Sketch N Scrap blog or on another challenge site.
  • If you don't have a blog you may email a picture of your created layout for an entry into the prize draw to me at - tjefferson112@comcast.net
  • Be sure to link back to my blog or the SNS blog when posting your project.

And for an added bonus I am giving away this adorable My Mind's Eye stamp set (I love the diamond image!) to NEW followers of the Sketch~n~Scrap blog as of the posting of the birthday challenge, (if you became a new follower as of my last challenge you will automatically be entered to win this stamp set too). Just let me know you are a new follower and you will be entered to win, no layout, no project, just start following us so that you will receive future updates from SNS. That is it, easy peasy!

S~N~S Tag Challenge

What's a party without party games? Today we are going to play a fun game of tag with no running around, lol. I have been admiring tags for a while but never jumped in, well today I gave it a shot and I really hope that you will too! I wanted to keep to the birthday theme for my project so I dug in my stash and pulled out this fun glittery line of paper called Party Time from My Mind's Eye. My first objective was to make the tag. Once I got started it was hard to stop and in no time I had my completed tag.
  
Now what to do with it? For this project I decided to create base and then add the tag, Voila, my card went from Oh to Oh la la in an instant.
What a great way to kick start your creativity and add layers to your cards.
Yes, I think I will be doing this more often, won't you join me? For my challenge create a tag for any occasion, any size. You can add it to a card, layout gift or it can just be a stand alone tag. Additional rules include - 
  • You may combine this with another challenge either on the Sketch N Scrap blog or on another challenge site. 
  • If you don't have a blog you may email a picture of your created layout for an entry into the prize draw to me at - tjefferson112@comcast.net
  • Be sure to link back to my blog or the SNS blog when posting your project. 
The prize - this cute canvas bag and a LYB stamp set.

1-2-3 Birthday Bash Challenge!

From 1 month -100 years old and beyond we count our age and what better way to document those special birthday memories than by including a number on your layout. As we celebrate Sketch~n~Scrap's second birthday I challenge you to use a number on your page in any way shape or form. It can be a part of the pattern paper, a stamp, die cut, handwritten, stickers or whatever you like. For my layout I used pattern paper that included numbers from Doodlebug and then die cut the number 3.

 For added emphasis I used a little white paint on the number 3 for a chalkboard effect. Even though this was my nephew's 1st birthday he is the 3rd boy and last child so I used the number 3.
Now for the goodies, for anyone who  participates in my challenge I am offering the prize below, the newest Hello Sunshine 6x6 pad and ephemera from Pink Paislee. To enter to win just add your blog link to this post by  June 5th, 2014 12 midnight EST.
Additional Rules -

  • Your layout does not have to be new as long as it features numbers in some way.
  • You may combine this with another challenge either on the Sketch N Scrap blog or on another challenge site. 
  • If you don't have a blog you may email a picture of your created layout for an entry into the prize draw to me at - tjefferson112@comcast.net

Sketch~n~Scrap Reveal

Hey there! It is May 15th and you know what that means............another Sketch~n~Scrap Reveal. Our sketch #57 was designed by none other than our Senior DT member Kelly! I had fun with this sketch and knew what I wanted to do the instant I saw it.

 
I focused in on the paper strips and pulled out my go-to line Trendsetter. Just by coincidence before this was due to be posted I received the Teresa Collins Something Wonderful collection and was able to use a few pieces to coordinate with my layout. Here is my baby girl with me at CKC in Lancaster, PA. She is such a good road buddy even if she is not a scrapper. Make sure you stop by the blog, there are lots of prizes and challenges  currently going on, with even more to come!!!!!!!!!!!!!
