A Brand New Creative Adventure For All

I hope you will ALL get involved in my exciting news.  As I've been hinting about, I've taken on a brand new endeavor.  I was approached by Debbie Moran from Mark's Finest Papers -a Heinrich Co. Stamps, to become a challenge hostess for a new challenge they've started at Speedy TV.  For those of you who are familiar with Mark's Finest Papers and Stamps, I'm sure you're already in love with their beautiful stamps and awesome selection of scrapbooking and card-making supplies.  For those of you who have not yet had the opportunity to experience their delightful store, you can check out their products and their MANY wonderful challenges by going to either this website:  Mark's Finest Papers OR by going here to: Speedy TV.  You will need to join Speedy TV (which is VERY simple to do) to play along in my new challenge, Sketch With a Twist, but registering is SUPER SIMPLE and is well worth your time as there are a wide variety of challenges to participate in.  Check it out.

I really do hope that you will take the time to get involved at Mark's Finest Papers/Speedy TV.  There is a BEAUTIFUL stamp set to be won this week which I've shown below.  You will just love the sweet designers and the inspiration they share, their beautiful stamps and products, and the wide variety of challenges available.  Please head over today and check it all out by using the above links.

Here's the prize you can win this week - Adirondack Summer Stamp Set.  Isn't that weeping willow tree just beautiful?  It makes me wish I was sitting in that chair under the weeping willow, sipping an ice cold lemonade.   And let me assure you that you will love the detailed quality of these stamps.

I stamped my sentiment on patterned paper to blend in with the challenge on Nichole Heady's Papertrey Ink Blog.   Here is that link:

http://www.simonsaysstampandshow.blogspot.com/2012/07/challenge-spritz-spray-or-stencil.html - Simon Says Stamp and Show - Spritz, Spray or Stencil.  I spritzed and sprayed with my Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist to make my hand-made scrunched seam binding.  It's easy and fun to make, and if anyone wants the instructions, I'd be happy to let you know how to make your own seam binding.

I am VERY excited about this new endeavor, and it will be even more special if YOU stop by and play along with us.  Please help me to make this new challenge, Sketch With a Twist at Speedy TV, a huge success.  You will really be glad you did, and I will be SO grateful for your support and participation.  I'd also LOVE to have you play along this week at Word Art Wednesday as this coming week is another double prize week.

Looking forward to brand new creative adventures - both for me, and for you.  Stop by and join in on all the fun.

Blessings,

Karen
