Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge #141

Good morning and Happy Friday! The weather has been pretty crummy around here this week... just a lot more rain which is exactly what we don't need! But it's supposed to heat up this weekend just in time for the Des Moines Arts Festival. I'm looking forward to checking out the fabulous fine art and ummmm....the food! *wink* So do you have any big plans for the weekend? Perhaps participating in the TE Sketch Challenge!?  Here it is:


Just create a card using the above sketch as inspiration. You're not required to use TE stamps to play, but there's a bonus prize if you do! To be entered into the prize drawing you must upload your card to Splitcoaststampers using keyword TESC141 by Thursday, July 7th. And here's the prize that's up for grabs:

1. I will randomly select one person from all of the challenge uploads to receive a $10 gift certificate to the TE Store!

2. If you used predominantly TE Stamps on your project you’ll receive an extra $10 bonus for a total $20 gift certificate!

Thanks to everyone who participated in the TESC140 sketch! Once again there are so many inspirational entries! You can see all of the entries HERE. The winner of a $20 gift certificate to the TE Store is:

dawnbarghorn! Check out the beautiful beachy scene she created HERE! Ahhhhh... so relaxing!

Just like always, the fabulous sketch crew is back at it again with beautiful samples to inspire you!

So do you love the inspiration you see above!? Then you're in for a special treat! The stamp sets the sketch crew used on their cards this week can be yours for FREE if you sign up for our Key Ingredients kit club! Here are all the details:
PLEASE NOTE: When purchasing your subscription DO NOT add the FREE stamp set to your cart. Instead, leave a comment at checkout indicating the stamp set of your choice and we'll make sure it gets included with your first KI shipment.

These special offers are only good for new subscribers and they run through June 30th.  New subscribers will receive the June Kit (pictured below) while supplies last, so if we run out of June kits we will notify you and your first shipment will be the July kit.

A few months ago when I was searching for new members of the sketch crew there were so many fabulous entries so I decided to invite all of the participants to join us as Guest Designers on the sketch crew over the next several months. This week I'm so excited to welcome Kathi (KathiR on SCS) and Jasmin (wildflowerscraps on SCS)!. Here are their fabulous cards:
