Scrapbook Challenges Blog Hop

Welcome to the Scrapbook Challenges Blog Hop!! If you are just joining, head on over to Pamela's blog and get started!
.
Welcome Back!
If you don't know about Scrapbook Challenges, let me tell you about it! It is a group on MySpace with weekly sketches and challenges. Pamela makes the sketches each week and does a fabulous job! The challenges are put up by the design team and are always fun to do. For each challenge and sketch that you complete, you get put in for the monthly prize drawing! This month the sponsor is My Little Shoebox. If you are not a member of SC, head over there and check it out! I promise you will not be disappointed.
.
Pamela has created a sketch just for this blog hop, and continues to not disappoint.
The thing I like about sketches, is for me, they really are a challenge. I find it difficult to not do the sketch exactly. That is what's so great about sketches, if the freedom you have, while still being inspired!
This is my take on the sketch. I used Basic Grey Ambrosia pp, My Little Shoebox letters, Thickers, Lil Davis wooden embellies (RAK from Pamela), and a chipboard journaling spot.
Everyone who does the sketch, will be entered into a drawing to win this stamp set by Unity Stamp Company, Birdie Inspiration! Just post a link to it on Pamela's Blog or in Scrapbook Challenges.While you are participating in our blog hop, be sure to leave a comment on everyone's blog, and you will be put into the drawing to win BOTH of these kits from Apron Strings Monthly Kits.

Want another chance at a great prize? Just answer these questions, and you will be entered to win this Unity Stamp set, Bevy of Butterflies! When you have the answers, email Pamela with your answers...pamelacy@msn.com

1. What is the name of our guest blogger today?

2. Name one of our newest DT members.

3. How long has Scrapbook Challenges on myspace been around?

4. Which Scrapbook Challenges DT member also designs for Scrap Within Reach?

5. Are you a member of Scrapbook Challenges on myspace?
I will have a prize for one lucky person who comments on my blog as well. Just leave me a comment and I will put you in the drawing! I don't know what the prize will be yet, but it will be awesome!!! You will get an entry for your comment here, an entry for joining SC (if you haven't already), an entry for linking me to your layout based on the sketch, and another entry for following me! Be sure to leave a separate comment in this thread for each entry!
.
Now, head on over to Lindsay's blog and continue on! Have fun and be sure to check out Scrapbook Challenges!
