IHP Birthday Bash Sketch Challenge!

Welcome to Day #2 of the i{heart}papers 2nd Birthday Bash! If you missed yesterday’s post, you will want to check it out & participate in the scavenger hunt/blog hop to earn your 20% off coupon (and see some really amazing projects from 25 incredible designers!). 

Today’s challenge is a sketch challenge that you can find over on the Kate's Blog. Be sure to play along by Friday, October 22nd (3:00 am EST) and post your direct link in the post in Mr. Linky and tag your uploads with IHPBB10S.  Tomorrow Deb will be hosting another challenge for you.

Winners for each day will be randomly drawn from the day's challenge entries, and everyone who plays along, either with the challenges and/or the scavenger hunt will be eligible for the grand prize drawing that will close the festivities on Friday.

ALL orders placed during the Bash (Oct 19-21) will receive a free goodie bag of surprise merchandise. The more you spend, the bigger your goodie bag!

Also, there will be random drawings for additional prizes from our PaperCraft Planet group members, our mailing list (sign up on the right side of the homepage) and our fans on Facebook. If you are on all three, then you’ve got triple the chances to win!

My sketch challenge card is an easel card that features two coordinating stamp sets by Our Craft Lounge ~ Tweet Thang and Tweet Trees along with this wonderful paper by Cosmo Cricket called Togetherness.  I used some white ribbon and colored it with my Copic Markers so it would match and added some Rockstar Red Sparkly Fluff on the birds cheeks.

And here is the card propped open showing the cute sentiment!  The card base is a standard size 4 1/4" x 11" and is scored at 5 1/2" & 2" for the folds.  You'll want to make sure you put something inside the card like brads or trim to hold the easel in place when it is open.

Stamps ~ Our Craft Lounge  (Tweet Thang and Tweet Trees)
Pattern Paper ~  Cosmo Cricket Togetherness.
