More excitement - our first sketch challenge since we've re-opened!!!  We hope you'll  come visit and play along. No theme required - just interpret the sketch as you like, let others know about us and link back to our blog. You are welcome to combine our sketch with other non-sketch challenges.  You're not restricted to a scrapbook layout in your interpretation of the sketch - you may art journal, make a card, or make a mixed media canvas.

Our sponsor is Scrapbook Fantasies, owned by design team member Alicia Redshaw, who will give a beautiful pack of ribbons to a randomly drawn participant.  We will feature our favourite layouts early in March on the blog.  We are always looking for guest designers, and often choose from amongst participants.

Fun fact: Two of our designers are mother and daughter!! Margaret Walz is the mother of Alicia Redshaw - we are so proud to have mother and daughter designers on our team!! Be sure to click their links and visit their work on their blogs!

Here is our sketch for this month.  You have until the end of February to upload your interpretation of it.
