Remember I challenged myself to make 1 x-mas and 1 b-day card each week.
Well so far I've completed them all. But with all my other posts I'm losing track of them.
And as you all know I'm posting a sketch every Friday.
Starting today I'm combining those two in a new challengeblog called: christmas and birthdaycards.
Every Monday I'm posting a sketch for you to follow. Only christmas and birthdaycards are allowed.
There will be a small price drawn on every first Monday of the month. Everybody that enters more than 2 times each month will be in the drawing.
Here's my first card for the blog.
Card details:
Cardstock: Bazzill
Papers: free downloads from Summertimedesigns
Stamp: Bella, sentiment from Scrappy cat
Technique; watervolourpencils and waterpen
Embellishments Faux Dew Drops and buttons from our local market.

I am always short of birthday cards and make them in the last half of a minute :)
I love this first sketch, it's an easy one and many various combinations and embellishments can be used.
I will be making a card for sure and post it on your newly opened blog (I've already linked to it on my page).

Oooh I would love to win this awesome blog candy so I am off to post your info on my blog right now. I just love your bella birthday card-I have about 40 bellas and they are so much fun. I signed up as one of your followers just so I can try your challenges. I'm not very good at them but I love the idea of having birthday cards on hand so maybe this will motivate me.

I am entering the contest and am very excited about it!!!! I saw where someone was requesting how to do a hyperlink in their oct 11th post type name of link etc that should do it!!! Good luck to you and ME!!!

I gave you a shout on my blog about the challenge blog and candy, check it out:

Hi Karin, I posted last night about 3:00 a.m. with my take on your sketch challenge but I didn't give you the excat spot on my blog where I had inserted my card. I thought this might help since I put it in with the post about your blog candy...so here is the actual post with my take on your sketch. Thanks again for a chance to win.

I LOVE this challenge! I made a Christmas card and a birthday card. It's amazing how different the cards look with the same sketch. Check them out on my blog.
Happy stamping,
