The Queen of Clean: Hannelie at Desert Diva

We are thrilled that so many of you joined us this week to celebrate our 400th sketch challenge.  We wouldn't still be here after eight years without all of you playing along with us week after week!  Since we didn't have a particular hostess for this challenge the design team has chosen the Queen.

Freshly Made Sketches #400 - A Milestone Celebration

Welcome to Freshly Made Sketches!  Each week, one member of our design team creates a sketch for you to try.  The challenge is to follow our sketch while keeping your project clean-lined and fresh.  The "Clean Team" has come up with some "Freshly Made" designs to get you in the spirit.  We are so excited to see what YOU create!

So the big day is finally here!  We are so excited to reveal sketch #400 and some fun extras.  As you all know, the crafting community is truly generous and quite amazing.  We reached out to some of our favorite companies and asked if they would consider sponsoring our milestone sketch.  We had a resoundingly positive response and could not be happier.  Because we get to reward YOU, our players!  While we will choose our normal team favorites this week, we will also randomly select winners of the sponsored prizes. And what fabulous prizes they are!  After you take in the inspiration from our design team, the specifics are below.
