***Blog Candy Challenge***

Hi everyone! Spring is quickly approaching, and so I thought I'd host a little give-away in honor of the gorgeous weather we've been having here in New York! I bought these stamp sets last year, and once I realized I ended up with extras, I knew I wanted to post them as blog candy.

I've been sort of Easter-ed out already since that has been my main focus for making cards lately, so I'm looking to you for inspiration to help me finish the last few! :) You will have until midnight on Friday to post a comment containing the following information:

  • 1 sketch (you may create your own or post a link to someone else's)
  • 2 patterns and/or textures
  • 3 colors (they may or may not look good together, but feel free to challenge me!)
  • 4 embellishments (it can be 4 of the same embellishment or 4 different embellishments)
I'm not expecting an overwhelming response, so I will make a card for each comment. On Saturday, I will post all of my cards and let the voting start. You (and anyone else who peruses my blog) will have until midnight on Sunday to vote for their favorite card. I will announce the top two winners on my blog Monday morning!

It sounds like a lot for a little prize, but I thought it'd be a fun way to get me amped up again! I hope you'll play along and let me know if you have any questions!

Ok, here it goes.

For your patterns, use 2 cuttlebug embossing folders (if you have them). I see you have a cuttlebug from a previous post.

Colors: pink, blue and yellow (those colors remind me of easter).

Embelies: flowers and buttons. I love buttons!!!

Layout: this weeks Sketch Saturday

Suzanne, what a fun giveaway! Here's my challenge for you.

Your sketch is Sketch #5 from Card Patterns because I know it was challenging to me:
http://cardpatterns.blogspot.com/2009/03/sketch-5.html

Your two patterns polka dots and stripes.

Your colors are purple, pink, and white (very girly and easter-y to me)

Your embellies would be a flower and buttons to be easy. Then sheer ribbon and a shaped brad to be more challenging.
