Happy Friday! We have a fun weekend planned for you with a prize pack from
Pink Persimmon! We also are introducing the first of several changes. As you look at the design team examples, you will notice that we are starting to add product lists. We hope that this will help some of you find some of the things that the
TTS amazing designers are using on their creations. First, let's look at our prize pack for this week:

Pink Persimmon is generously offering this RAK to one lucky winner this weekend! What do you need to do to enter? You need to use this week's sketch (
Sketch 29) to create a layout, card, tag, or altered item. Then you need to link it in the comment section here by 11:59 p.m. CST on Thursday, October 23. One lucky winner will be chosen and announced on Friday, October 24th. If you want to see details on the items in the prize pack, you can see the Wise Old Owl
here, and you can see the Swirl Journal
here. They are amazing stamps, and I know you all will want to get your entries in for this AMAZING prize! Now, let's look at the sketch you need to use to enter:
Sketch 29!

I thought it would be fun to play with our circle cutters this weekend! If you don't have a circle cutter, a plate from your kitchen works perfectly! Just trace and cut out! Or do as Carrie did, you can stitch a circle or use some shaped patterned papers. There are many options! This sketch also has a bit of layering and a place for one or more photos! Let's look at all of the wonderful examples the designers created for you this week.
