Whew, I wasn't sure I would get this post out today. We had bad storms last night which included a tornado hitting about 1-2 miles from us and dime- to golf-ball sized hail. We all took shelter in the bathroom (along with the 3 dogs), and after it was all over, I didn't sleep very well. Today is going to be a bit slower for me I think.

Thank you for all of the fun entries using Sketch 60 from last week! We do have a winner of the $30 gift certificate from Cut Card Stock. And I don't believe this has ever happened! Wait until you see what number random.org chose for our winning number today. Here is our winning number:

What a fun sketch and what great layouts. It was perfect for a masculine birthday card I needed to make today: Cosmo Pups Birthday.

Stephanie, please e-mail me so that I can get your gift certificate information to you!

Well, let's see our sketch for this week! For our sketch, you can break out those old tools! How about using your old wave rulers or trimmers? They really can add fun to your creations. Or you can even tear a shaped element for your page or use shaped paper. How fun! Let's see the sketch and then look at what the design team created.
