Each of our design team members have created a fun challenge for you - just hop along to see the challenges and inspirations. Leave some love for each along the way and post your challenge entries in the Sketches4All Photo Gallery. If you are not yet a member, just sign up - membership approval is very fast. One lucky participant will be crowned “Queen of The Hop” - this is the person who leaves some love on each blog in the hop and participates in the most challenges. The Queen will win this fabulous prize package worth more than $75!
We will also have a 2nd prize of a $25.00 {US} gift certificate and other chances for prizes along the way.
Hop Challenge #8: My challenge to you is to scraplift any project from the Sketches4All Gallery. There are so many projects to chose from and anything in that project could inspire you. Once you find your inspiration, create any non-digital project and post it back to the Sketches4All gallery with a tag of HOP8, giving credit to the project you lifted. In addition to being eligible for the grand prize and 2nd place prize, one lucky participant in my challenge will be entered in a random drawing for a 6x6 paper pack.
For my example, I chose to scraplift a layout from a fellow DT member - Brenda Ragsdale. The elements I pulled out where the overall design (though I turned it on its side), a sentence for the title, and the use of both large and small alphas in that title.
So join Sketches4All, take a look at our gallery and get inspired! Some simple rules for this challenge:
- Be a member of Sketches4All
- Chose any project from the Sketches4All Photo Gallery as your inspiration. Post your project back to the gallery by midnight April 7 (EST) with a tag of HOP8
- Leave a comment in the Sketches4All Blog Hop challenge discussion thread with a link to your gallery entry
- Specific rules for Queen of the Hop prize can also be found in the Sketches4All Forum in the Blog Hop challenge discussion thread
- HAVE FUN!!!

I chose a winter theme for the card - a bit early to start on Christmas cards but one of the blogs I follow (Paper Girls) challenged us to use snowflakes. I thought it was perfect theme for white-on-white. I began with a white card base that I edged in Winter Snow glimmer paint from Creative Inspirations. For the next layer, I created my own pattern paper using a snowflake stamp and clear embossing powder. The next two layers are white shimmer paper that I embossed with a Tim Holtz folder and the old stand by Swiss Dots. Finally, the snowflake was cut on my Silhouette and then painted with more of the CI paint. And all topped off with a snowflake brad (painted with the CI paint) and a rhinestone. Sketch design is from Mojo Monday.
