November Sketch Challenge Week 1

So - are you ready for a new challenge?   We thought it was time we kick started Christmas here on the blog so we have lovely adaptable sketch for you and we'd like to see you use it to make a Christmas card using products we sell in store.

You can flip the sketch if it suits and combine with other challenges if you like, but we do need to see that our challenge inspired you in some way.   To be eligible for the £15 prize voucher you need to use at least one product we sell in store and you have until 10pm on Sunday 22nd November to play along so plenty of time to get Crafting for Christmas!

Here's the first of our Design Team's ideas for this sketch - you can see that we've interpreted in a variety of ways so you don't have to be totally literal.  We'll be back for the next 2 weekends with more inspiration and reminders to play along.

Jenny
My loose interpretation of the sketch uses North Pole stamps and matching dies from Avery Elle and I made my own dotty stencil using Avery Elle's Swim Team dies.... more details on my blog here

Lydia
I have copied the sketch near perfect but added my tag at an angle, I have used Mama Elephant 'Christmas Spirit' for the elf and the sentiment is from Wplus9 'Heartfelt Holidays'.

Tara

Using Mama Elephant's Reindeer Games, Jolly and Merry, Tags a Lot Dies and Merry Word Die and Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Circle Dies.

Link your project on our Challenges page when you are ready to play along.

November Challenge - Week 1

We're bringing you 30 days of Christmas inspiration throughout the whole of November - this blog will be awash with awesome Christmas themed inspiration this whole month - so we thought it only appropriate to make this month's challenge Christmas themed too!

We've made it pretty easy - just make something for Christmas with colours selected from one of these classic options, and remember you MUST use at least one product from those we sell in the store:

As usual - we've been playing along too and will bring you some fresh inspiration from the Design Team each week with a reminder to play along.  Jenny and I are kicking you off today
