Hiya ladies! Can you BELIEVE it's almost SEPTEMBER already??????? Halloween candy and costumes are already all over our BX so I'm sure there in the states it's more of the same! CRAZY how these holidays sneak up on us!
Okay in hind sight I wish I'd made the August challenges one week longer, but I didn't, so it's September Week One
*The Deets**
So far this year, we've been walking through a different room every month; however, I've run out of rooms! SO starting this month, I'm going to be posting inspirations pics from different random rooms in a house, no room specific. It's going to be so much easier to find you beautiful inspiration! You can use these inspiration pictures in any way you want--a color combo, a texture, a style, anything your heart desires! There will also of course be a sketch, the backbone of our challenges! So using the weekly sketches, you'll create an inspired card based on one of the photos provided. Complete all the challenges for a chance to win our next release. Verve stamps are not required, but we love to see' em if you've got 'em!
For September there will be 5 sketch challenges! All 5 sketch challenges MUST be uploaded to the SCS gallery by midnight on September 30th. On the last week of the month, I will post a Sketch Challenge Champions thread for you to link all of your projects. One lucky participant who has linked their cards on the champions thread will win our next month's entire release. The winner will be announced on October 1st. Have fun!
Ready for September? Well ready or not, HERE WE COME!
Our keywords for September will be Verve (if using Verve stamps) and VLVSep2010. The keywords will remain the same ALL MONTH, please make sure to add the keyword correctly or your cards won't show up in the gallery!
Great sketch...great rooms...great new Verve flower to play with! MY CARD

We're working on September already??
Wow, you ladies don't mess around!
Ive just finished my 1st ever competition with Verve as of August.
I must say, i feel proud!
Cant wait to work on this sketch....
Thanks Amber...Month 1 was awesome!
Ok, newbie again. Can we upload more than 1 card per week or is it one card per?
You can upload as many as you want; however, since you only link your cards on ONE post in the champions thread, you only get counted once, not once for each card you enter, kwim? Clear as mud? I think I confused myself, lol!

Oh you bet im back! Would you believe I was late to submit my last card for August? booooo me!
That being said, that last layout was amazing and I found it a huge challenge.....good times!
September....game on!
I have been watching these challenges for too long - I think I may take the plunge and try Good way to get the mojo going tooo. Beautiful cards ladies and love the inspiration pictures. My dd would love the purple room
Gonna go create now...........
Some great rooms again this week and some great cards appearing. Love the polka dot chair and the lilac room is cool but I need to get more Christmas cards done so used room 2 as my choice. Stamped a whole sheet of A4 which I then cut up for a few cards - this one being one of them.
Well after my luck last month I have to play along! I have so much fun with sketch challenges. Another good one this week and I too am lovin' that polka dot chair in #3...I think I even have ribbon that would match. We will see what happens when I sit down to create.
Week 1--At last
Okay, the polka dot theme on the rug and the swivel chair got to me.
I absolutely love this line by Jenny Allyson. It's called "Lost and Found" and its perfect!
