IT'S TCP TUESDAY - NUMBER 3 - SKETCH CHALLENGE

Yea! Tuesday again and it's time for another TCP Tuesday challenge.  This week I'm the hostess and we have a sketch challenge! 

My sketch was inspired by this card that I made a few weeks ago for the first TCP Tuesday challenge.  I'm calling it the 'Horizontal 3By' but it can just as easily be done vertically as well.  I made two samples to share with you...

Don't forget that this is a challenge for YOU!  Make a card or two or five using the sketch above and then leave me a comment here with this post by the end of the day on Saturday, April 19th.  In your comment you should provide a link to your card - either on Splitcoast, or your blog, or an online gallery.  (Obviously, this is a Cat's PJs challenge so Cat's PJs stamps would be preferred.)  All of the cards submitted will be featured next Monday in a slideshow on Alma's blog.  AND you will be entered to win the title of Swanky Stamper for the month of April AND $25 in Cat's Cash to spend at The Cat's Pajamas!!! MEEEE-OW!

The other Cat's PJs design team members should have projects using the sketch as well.  Click on any of their names - in the blog roll at left with TCP behind their names - to see what they're up to and get your creative juices flowin'!

I am excited about this sketch. I really enjoyed doing it and think I might need to do another one. Sorry I did not have any TCP stamps.

Hi Leigh ... great sketch!

You can find my entry in the challenge on my blog:

Sorry for the long URL; typepad doesn't like html.

Now, let's hope I win so I can finally go and buy some of these uber-kewl TCP stamps!

~Hugs, Deb

What a fun sketch! I made up a few and posted a couple. Thanks for the challenge Leigh!

The new TCP acrylic set is calling to me. It is a great idea of Alma's to 'reissue' some early ones as a new set of acrylic. Makes them so affordable.

Hi Leigh! What a wonderful sketch! I just couldn't resist using last summers TCP to play along with your sketch challenge.

Here's my card! I'm hoping to make another sometime today (as I had so much fun with the first card), but housecleaning has to come first! LOL!

Cool cards, Leigh! I have uploaded my entry to SCS using the code TCPTUES03. This is so much fun! Can't wait to see who April's Swanky Stamper is! Angela

Great sketch! I deviated from it a little bit and my photo is not the best... but the card is super cute in person! I thought that the metal embellishment complimented the robot so well! Here's the link http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/889378?cat=500&ppuser=112228 and thanks for the great project idea!
