Imaginisce Sketch Challenge


It is the first of the month and Imaginisce is having a sketch challenge with a prize worth $50 for participants who enter the drawing. This is my take on Julie Bonner's sketch, which was really fun to work with and a treat since I don't often get to work with other artists sketches. BTW - I used my Cricut Calligraphy cartridge to make the large and small swirls.

You can visit here for the actual sketch and more information on the drawing. But... here is the skinny - you can enter multiple times by leaving a comment on each of the design team member's blogs who participated in the challenge, plus one more for leaving a comment on the home blog. If you visit them all, you will be entered to win about 20 times. Good luck and happy blog hopping (you can find all of the team blogs here on mine in the right hand column).

Don't forget to watch Lost this week and thank you for stopping by - Liz
