Happy New Year!

And to kick off 2008, I'm offering a little challenge & a RAK...

But first, the rest of the sketches that Janelle Richmond created for her tag book (the first two were posted on December 29th.)








And here is the entire book:
Thanks again, Janelle! I've had such a positive response to the sketches, I know you'll be back for more!

So now, for the challenge.

I spent a day cropping at a good friend's house over the holidays, and actually used two of Janelle's sketches. So did many of the other gals I was with. And so...

Use at least one of the sketches that Janelle produced in the past week here at the WIP site, and email me a photo of it (no larger than 500k, please!) to Turay413@gmail.com. You have a full week--I'll announce the winner on January 8th on this site. There are no other stipulations. I can be a 12x12 layout, a mini book--you decide. Just let your mind run on this one! The winner will receive a yummy goodie bag from me--and I'll post the prize at the end of the contest (you'll have to trust me on this one, gals!) :)


**And as an added bonus, post a comment on this post and I'll randomly draw a name for a RAK tomorrow evening. Wheee!!!

Happy New Year!

    Okay.....Those sketches ROCK!! I have to say that I have been going through my WIP kits and using some extra supplies on an album for Ethan. I have one more page to do and it'll be finished, Yeah!!! I'm ashamed to say I found goodies I didn't even remember were in the kits:-)
