August 15 Card Sketch

Mid August, already!

Time flies when you are getting crafty!

Well at least we hope that this Summer

has provided some of the best of life; family fun,

vacations and scrappy time.

Ok, well you could just have left the crafting time

as is and I know many of us would have been very, very happy!

So, speaking of which we have our 3rd Card Sketch

and are excited to share the sketch

as well as the creations from our Design Team.

We are thrilled to have some returning and new

faces on our team and hope you all have

been enjoying these lovely ladies as well!

And onto the Design Team projects...

August 10 Die Cut Challenge, School Is Cool

Whoa! It's that time already? Back to school!

Well almost, hopefully most of us have a couple weeks of Summer

vacation left. But it certainly is time to start thinking about

school, getting supplies and maybe getting a head start on

some layouts for the beginning of the year activities

or for new teacher gifts, either way,

we hope this new Die Cut Challenge...

School Is Cool

...will get you started! We'd love to see some school themed layouts.

Apples, school buses, school supplies, etc.

This is a die cut challenge so we are looking for school themed die cuts.

Electronic or otherwise.

August 3 Sketch Challenge

Hi all! Just a friendly reminder that we are now

posting Card Sketches on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each

month and so we posted just a couple days ago, so make sure

to go scroll on down and check that out!

But today we have for you another original sketch.

This is something pretty different and might seem a little intimidating at first

but do see what the DT has made. Incredible projects and lots of ideas

for this sketch! Sketches are a great way of moving out of your comfort zone

and I know that it certainly stretched this team's creativity...

What will it do for you? We can not wait to see!

And here's the always wonderful Design Team projects.

August 1 Card Sketch and Guest Designers

We are so excited to start the month with only our second Card Sketch,

and our first full month with these challenges!

We hope that soon these will become part of your challenge line up

to play along with! Thanks to those that did join and viewed

our projects.

Hopefully you all are enjoying the last few weeks of Summer as

school will be starting soon enough for many of the kiddo's out there!

Well, Summer really isn't over til the end of September, right?

So plenty of time to enjoy the warmth (some have had way too much

warmth this season though) and finished those seasonally inspired

crafting projects before our thoughts turn to pumpkins and black cats

(if they haven't already!)

Today we want to share a Guest Designer for our card sketch,

a great friend and past designer for us, Debbie Burns.

Thank you very much for sharing this design with us today.
Make sure to stop by her blog, you will not want to miss a thing there!

Also, for the month of August for our Card Challenges we have a Guest Designer.
We are thrilled to have Clare Fordham with us for the month.
Her designs are incredible with wonderful stamped images, bold coloring and
fun details. We are very sure you'll love her as much as we do!

Hi, my name is Clare and I am a self confessed stampaholic, well actually I am pretty obsessed with anything to do with papercrafting. In 2004 I decided to turn my obsession into more than just a hobby and opened my paper craft shop in Horncastle, Lincolnshire 'Cloudnine Crafts'. I am very lucky to be surrounded by beautiful stuff every day but believe me like everyone I also suffer from crafters block and even with a shop full I never have the right paper, ribbon, flowers etc. I am lucky enough to be a part of 2 wonderful design teams and have worked with some amazing crafters along the way who have inspired me and helped me develop my own style. I was thrilled to be asked to be Guest Deisgner for SOUS for the month of August, so good luck with the challenge and happy crafting!
Big Hugs, Clare xx
