World Card Making Giveaway and Card Patterns Sketch Card

I have lots to share with you today. Only six more days until World Card Making Day! To celebrate that fun holiday plus to celebrate my first month of blogging, I am going to have some blog candy. You will be trying for a chance to win some great Hampton Art stamps, Sizzix products, Clearsnap ink pads and Art DeClassified stamps. (The Art DeClassified stamps are not pictured as they have not arrived yet but Karen promised they would go out today....so will be here in time.) :) Since my blog is new, I would appreciate your help sharing it. For a chance to win my blog candy, leave a comment in any of this week's posts with a link to your blog showing where you have told about my blog. If you don't have a blog, tell me who you told about my new blog. :) Next Sunday, I'll write down everyone's name that commented/linked, etc. and put them in a hat. I'll get my 14 year old daughter to help (she loves doing things like this). Then we will blindfold her and she will draw the winning name. Be sure to check back next Sunday to see if you've won. :) I'll be needing your address then. :) WooHoo! I'm excited! :)

I did my first card for the Card Patterns Weekly Sketch Challenge today. I tell you all these card sketch challenges are addictive! I'm having the most FUN! :) The paper is by BoBunny, scalloped square diecut by Sizzix, the circle bird stamp by Hampton Art, the flower by Prima Marketing, the rub-on is by Royal & Langnickel and the ink I used was by Clearsnap. There's also some ribbon by Offray, a scalloped circle punch by Marvy/Uchida and a brad by The Paper Studio.

Remember you can leave a comment anytime this week in any of my posts but please show me your link about my new blog. (I'll go thru them all Sunday and get the names to enter for the blog candy.) Come to see me again this week where I'll have more cards to share. Hope your Monday is going great. We have had a beautiful sun shiney day in Alabama....so nice after a week of rain. :)
