Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

This is such a wonderful time of year! And we all have so much to be grateful for, a hobby that not only brings us joy in creating but also brings together a large community of friends. This site alone has brought together a kind and talented group of ladies that we all feel lucky to know, not only speaking of the designers but also the many of you that join us in our challenges! So don't forget in all the hustle of this week to take time to snap a few photos and possibly use them with this sketch! =)

We want to again thank Ness Waller for another original sketch! This is totally stunning and we have a feeling will be greatly liked by everyone! This sketch has such great potential to be turned into amazing pages and with that said...let's take a look at some...

Nov 12, Lisa Gregory, Guest Designer

We are well into the month of November and what could be better then some original sketches and a wonderfully talented Guest Designer?

Vanessa Waller of Crafty Ness has graciously designed some sketches that you will only find here at Stuck on U Sketches for the month of November. We thank her for her time and for sharing her unique and lovely sketches with us (and it just so happens that she is the DIL of our very own Annette! who knew! LOL!)

We hope that you are able to join us this week and please come back next time to see the cool and totally different sketch we have for you (just in time to scrap that memorable family photo from Thanksgiving dinner!) FYI ... Lisa McIntyre is off this week but will return for the next challenge.

We also have a Guest Designer this week, so scroll on down!

Please meet our very special Guest Designer, Lisa Gregory.  We are so honored to have her designing with us this week!

Here is a bit about Lisa in her own words:

I started my real interest in scrapboooking in 2005 when I was helping my son and his girlfriend (wife now) work on their senior project. A scrapbook of their lives. As soon as I hit the scrapbook isle at Michaels and saw all of the products related to scrapbooking, I was hooked. A crafter all of my life I think I have done everything. But paper was always an obession. And so was my photography. In discovering scrapbooking, I was able to blend  my scrapbooking and photography to create the 12 x 12 LO's I still create today. I love creating tutorials for flowers and techniques for scrapbooking and sharing what I learn with others.
I live on the Gulf Coast of Florida with my high school sweetheart..Who also happens to be my husband!! We have 2 children. Our son is married and lives a few miles away. Our daughter is attending Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary  Arts in Portland, Oregon. I am a registered nurse by profession. I am currently the design Team Coordinator for Swirlydoos and on the design team at Heartfelt Creations. I have been a long time fan of Stuck On U Sketches and was honored to be asked to be the Guest Designer this week. Thank you Nanne, Sandi and Leah for the opportunity. Love you girls!! 
Hugs, 

Okay, that's it for today. We can't wait to see what you do with this fantastic sketch. Thanks again to Ness! Remember you will have 2 weeks to upload your project.

Autumn Mini Album Swap-UPDATED

UPDATE:

Linky Tools is up and running.. 

Those of you that have received your minis can start linking them to the post.. Can't wait to see what everyone has made..


Good morning ladies..

Us girls at SOUS have been putting our heads together trying to find ways
of inspiring you, to get you to think outside the box and to challenge you to try new things..

So we thought to have a SWAP..

Sounds like fun right? 

Oh, were excited about this one and hope you are too..

Our first SWAP would be an
Autumn themed mini album..

don't get scared just yet..LOL

Its more simple than it sounds..

You will be randomly paired off to another SWAP participant and once your minis are done, you will send them to each other and please include a little thank you gift in your box.

If you would like to participate in the swap, leave a comment and then contact Nanné by clicking HERE

or emailing her at : breadesi9er@hotmail.com
(leave your email information and your first name so we can forward your information to your swap buddy)
No home address or phone numbers please, you can keep that between you and your buddy...
and you can email Nanné or leave a comment at anytime during the swap with questions,etc...

  We think that everyone that wants to participate should sign up before our next sketch challenge is posted (August 20th).
We will then randomly draw names to pair you up and email you your swap buddies email information..
We want the mini album to be a surprise, so no peeking or giving out hints..LOL
Lets keep it fun!!

The requirements would be:

1. Size:
No smaller and no bigger than a 6x6 (cause then it wouldn't be a mini) and

covered with designer printed cardstock/paper.

2.. Has to have 6 pages which includes a decorated front cover and  back cover.

 3.Add a minimum of four tags and pockets to your book.

*tags are always so much fun

4.. Autumn colors and embellishments.

5. You can add bling, charms, ribbons, fibers, lace, flowers, brads, embossing, 

stamping, rub-ons.

Here is your time to get creative..

6. Add photo mats and journaling spots on the pages.
 *The amount is up to you, but remember it is a photo album after all..

and most importantly

 Make with your heart. 

*Take pride in your work ladies

Now we know that these mini's might take some time to get finished, 

so we are giving you till the end of October and hopefully have it shipped to your swap buddy by the beginning of November.
If this is a success, we will be announcing a new SWAP at the end of October.

Once you have received your new mini, we want you to take a photo of it, post it on your blog and then link it back to us using McKlinky on the SWAP post.  You will find a link to the post on our sidebar.

*Sign up only if you are serious about joining the swap, we don't tolerate any flakers, but if for any reason you can not finish your mini, please let us know early so that we  don't have any disappointed participants.

So, lets have some fun ladies and get creating..

p.s. McKlinky will start accepting posts on October 15tht..so, Please take a photo of the mini you received and post on McKlinky..
