Hi stampers!  Jen T here with this week's sketch. After all the cool angles you used last week, I thought I'd change it up to a classic circle. As you can see from the DT, there are lots of ways to interpret this sketch. I can't wait to see YOU in the gallery!

Winners For Sketch 419!

The Clean Team has chosen the Princesses for you this week and our hostess Lee Ann has chosen the Queen!


The Queen of Clean:Nicole of Couleur et Scrap

Wow!  You all were really out to impress this week!  What an amazing gallery!  Thank you all for playing along and filling our gallery with so much pretty! I went back and forth between so many entries- so many different styles and card types- but I kept coming back to Nicole's adorable neutral card.  I am a bit of a sucker for neutral colors so this caught my eye immediately.  Add the wonderful texture and cute fox-well, I decided this had to be this week's winning card!  
Congrats, Nicole!

Join us tomorrow for a new sketch by Jen Timko!

Hello, stampers!  Lee Ann here with a new sketch for you.  I hope
you have fun with this quirky, little sketch.  Amy had skewed panels a few weeks back and I commented that I don't do well with skewed panels.  Well here I am with a skewed panel!   I guess I decided I needed the challenge!  I can't wait to see what you come up with this week.  I hope you are up for the challenge!

Winners For Sketch 418

The Clean Team has chosen the Princesses for you this week and our hostess Jacquie has chosen the Queen!


The Queen of Clean: LucieG of Lucie G Cards



I loved watching the gallery fill with your fabulous cards this week! It was so fun to see some of you flip or rotate the sketch and others find wonderfully creative ways to add a curved edge. Picking a winner wasn't easy, but I kept coming back to Lucie G's card with the lovely clean and fresh pops of white and elegant lines of the sweet daisies! Beautiful design, Lucie!

Join us tomorrow for a new sketch by Lee Ann!

Hi, everyone, it's Jacquie hosting this week and I hope you love a curved edge panel as much as I do! I'm excited to see if you use the panel for an oversized sentiment, to highlight designer paper or create a stamped scene and can't wait to see the results in the gallery! Have fun!

Thank you to everyone that played in our first challenge of the new year! So many wonderful creations graced our gallery pages, and it was a delight to see all of the different ideas from the basic sketch! Trina's heart caught my eye with its alternating gradient color - and then on a closer look, the sparkle really sold me! Click on her link above the photo to see all of that lovely shimmer and shine!
