May Sketch (Imaginisce) & new blog for The Inspired Scrapbooker


It's that time again!! Yes siree! Months are just flying by and soon my kids will be done school!! Eeks!

Well, here is the May Sketch for Imaginisce created by Robyn Schaub.

And here is my take on it.

Supplies used: Imaginisce ("To Love & Cherish collection" - paper, rub-ons, black flower), circle sticker from Polar Expressions collection; Basic Grey (black chipboard alphs), Cuttlebug diecut/embossing folders/templates for christmas trees, decorative scissors

So here's how the challenge for the sketch goes. There are 2 ways to play here:
1. Each time you post a comment on the Imaginisce blog and the designers blogs you get a chance to win a fabulous prize from Imaginisce.
2. You can participate in this sketch challenge using 75% Imaginisce product and posting a link to the Imaginisce blog so that we can see your creation.

And to kick off this fabulous NSD The Inspired Scrapbooker has a new blog site. Check it out HERE and learn a little bit more about some of the designers for this inspirational blog. There's some exciting topics that this post covers today (Meet the designers, Goodie Giveaway, a Color Challenge and Design Team Call.) So make sure to head on over there.

Have a great weekend! I'm going to get scrappin'! ;)
