T.G.I.F.!! I never get tired of saying that. Not only am I excited that it's Friday, but I *finally* have something crafty to share with you! Yea!!! I have a busy day ahead - chaperoning my daughter's class to the planetarium this morning and then this afternoon an appointment with The Cat Coach. Yes you read that correctly. We are having some behavioral issues with my eldest furry (he's 14 and a bit set in his ways) that we need some help with. Don't laugh! My fellow feline friends - you know what I'm talking about. They are just like kids. *grin*
Once I saw this sketch I knew I wanted to use one of Taylor's Al La Carte word stamps. Since today is my dearest cousin's birthday I chose It's Your Birthday. After I had my image selected, picking my paper was easy thanks to this paper pad from Simple Stories - Happy Day. I used my Copic air can while the image was still in the oval die to add some color to the image. What's a birthday without a banner? I ran my pennant die using a scrap of the paper I used for the bottom of my card.
Here's everything you need to know in order to participate:
1. Create a card using the sketch as inspiration. Feel free to switch up the shape or size of your card. As long as your project follows the general sketch, you’re good to go! You may play as many times as you want. Each upload will be entered into our weekly drawing, so the more you create - the better chance you have of winning the PRIZE!
2. Upload your project to Taylor's blog, using In Linkz before 8pm PST on Thursday, February 23rd. If you also choose to upload your creation to online galleries (like here on SCS), use the keyword TESC152.
3. You’re not required to use TE Stamps on your project, but we love it when you do! And if you’re drawn as our weekly winner and you’ve used TE Stamps on your project you’ll get a little sumpin’ sumpin’ extra!
