JAN08VSNMINI2 -- Oct 19, 7PM EST-- Sketch Challenge -- Chat Thread
Hostess: Frances (StampOwl)
Keyword:
JAN08VSNMINI2
Time: Oct 19, 7PM EST
Check out the gallery for this challenge here: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
Sometimes when you organize a “Girls night Out” you like to play it by ear and at other times you need to have some sort of a plan of what you are going to do. It wouldn’t be much fun if you all ended up at different places all on your own! And having a plan often means you can get more done in the night!
One of my favorite challenges on SCS has to be the sketch challenge so I was thrilled when I was asked to host this one today. My challenge to you is to
create a card using the sketch below . I have kept this sketch fairly simple as I know there are lots of sketches out there at present many of them not so simple. Sometimes it is good to get back to basics! Dress it up or down as much as you wish as long as you keep to the sketch provided.
**There are no time limits for making your Mini VSN creations. However, all challenge submission must be uploaded by Friday, November 2nd, 11:00 PM EST**
Uploading Instructions:
*Please remember to put in the correct keyword when uploading your image. If you are using additional keywords, you must separate them with a comma. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
*It is also highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in the chat thread just in case the gallery is being testy.
Samples:
Girls just wanna have fun! - mine; Martini Girl - Kim Nutsy

Frances, should the keyword in your post not have VSN at the end to match the one in your title?
Here is my card (I uploaded using the keyword without the extra VSN) - TFL!
Peaceful Christmas

When you upload your card to your gallery .... just remember to include the keyword which you will see in my challenge description where it tells you to put the keyword when you are uploading ... it is only the 2nd page when you upload. Also it is a good idea to come here to link your card.

Well, I won't say that I don't "think" about drinking wine at 9:30 AM sometimes....depends on if I am at work or not and how bad my day is going.....but I can truly say that I have never had wine before 4pm! Honestly, I swear....ok- maybe 3pm but only on a really bad day....;)

I'll give this a shot! My first VSN challenge. I don't have any stamps relating to the theme tonight, so I'm just using whatever.
Couldn't get the picture to show. I'll try a link.

Great sketch, Frances. I have to make a card for my cousin's bridal shower on Sunday...I think I have a wedding stamp that will work great.

I applied the sketch to a mini-composition book I've been wanting to make for myself to hold my stamping wish list. I think it came out cute. I will post a pic tomorrow when I can get some good light. Thanks for the sketch!

Well, I managed to finish another one. Not bad considering I'm on babysitting duties today (DH is working). And I've also managed to marinate and start cooking a leg of lamb!!!! Anyway, here's my effort for this challenge - may still do another!!
