wowza. i'm feeling like a broken record this month. ;)
first off - congrats to Christie Wildes!! random.org and some careful counting tell me that you're my winner for my studio calico / scrapbook trends giveaway. please email me your addy so i can get your goodies out to you!
next up - i've got a place in kelly purkey's sketchbook 2 to give away!! here's the class description :
Sketchbook 2 is a four week class filled with fresh sketches, easy instructions, beautiful examples, and lots of fun. From August 2nd to August 27th a PDF will be delivered to your inbox every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday so you can work at your own pace. By the end of the class, you'll have a complete sketchbook of 12 original sketches, 36 layouts, and an additional 36 sketches based on those creative pages. All the examples are brand new layouts, exclusive to this class... you won't see them anywhere else! The best part is that you will be receiving an example layout from me for each of the sketches, along with two example layouts from a member of the incredible Studio Calico design team. The class will also include a private message board for questions and sharing ideas, as well as two scheduled chats - all on the awesome Studio Calico website.
here's a peek at one of the pdfs from the last sketchbook class. i think this was my favorite sketch - it was the one i contributed a lo for. ;)
for this round, i contributed two layouts. i showed you a sneak of the first page here, and here's the second one. i opted to use bits from the august kit and addons for this one - the colors were perfect for my photo.
(summer camp + addons, bumpy road punch, tiny attacher, pumice stone ink, charcoal mist)
