Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge #139

Good morning and Happy Friday! I can hardly believe it's Friday already, but I'm totally ready for a long holiday weekend! Do you have any fun plans? I'm on my way to Omaha for a girls weekend filled with shopping and tickets to see Wicked. It will be my third time seeing it, but it never gets old! Maybe your plans include staying home and enjoying some time with your stamps!? If that's you, I hope you'll take a stab at our sketch challenge! Here it is:


Just create a card using the above sketch as inspiration. You're not required to use TE stamps to play, but there's a bonus prize if you do! To be entered into the prize drawing you must upload your card to Splitcoaststampers using keyword TESC139 by Thursday, June 9th (that gives you two weeks to play along!). And here's the prize that's up for grabs:

1. I will randomly select one person from all of the challenge uploads to receive a $10 gift certificate to the TE Store!

2. If you used predominantly TE Stamps on your project you’ll receive an extra $10 bonus for a total $20 gift certificate!

Thanks to everyone who participated in the TESC138 sketch! Once again there are so many inspirational entries! You can see all of the entries HERE. The winner of a $10 gift certificate to the TE Store is:

hollz77. Check out her spooktacular card here!

Just like always, the fabulous sketch crew is back at it again with beautiful samples to inspire you!

A few months ago when I was searching for new members of the sketch crew there were so many fabulous entries so I decided to invite all of the participants to join us as Guest Designers on the sketch crew at some point during the next several months. This week I'm so excited to welcome Rosemary (rosigrld on SCS) and Kelli (KelliJo on SCS)!. Here are their fabulous cards:

Rosemary inspired me, so I made a card & hopefully loaded it correctly at Splitcoast Stampers. I don't have TE stamps yet, but I'm making a wishlist! Thanks for the great sketch--love it!

I added mine to my gallery. I would've used a TE stamp, but I had a special one for my little brother's b-day & I used your sketch for the layout.

I sooo hope you bring back your sketches. They are such an inspiration. This one was perfect for a project I did.
