Farewell to Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge

Sadly, Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge is ending with this final challenge. It's been a long, great run, with a total of 161 amazing sketches to play with. I've enjoyed playing in many of them, and will definitely keep the collection handy for future reference. You can download the sketches by clicking --> HERE. 


To celebrate the wonderfulness that is and has been the Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge, there are FOUR sketches to choose from and more chances to win prizes!

• One winner from each sketch to receive a $10 gift certificate to the TE Store
• One lucky person that participates in ALL 4 sketches will receive a $40 gift certificate to the TE Store

 I played with Sketch 159, which is fantastic for making quick and easy cards with a lot of punch! My card features one of the sentiments from Friendship Blooms and the coordinating dies (flowers and leaves). The patterned paper is from the Indie Chic Saffron collection by My Mind's Eye. (Please excuse the poor quality of the picture... I managed to break not one but both lightbulbs for my tent lamps, so I'm struggling to get decent pictures these days. Does anyone know where I can buy those bulbs?)

You can get all the deets on the challenge and find the place to link your cards by clicking --> HERE. And for some inspiration to get you started, take a look at what the Sketch Crew has created using the various sketches!

I stamped the image in Memento Rich Cocoa ink on patterned paper from the gorgeous Lost & Found Rosy collection by My Mind's Eye layered over SU's Natural Ivory. I did a bit of stitching around the edges for good measure. ;) The sentiment reads "wishing you a" on the outside and "Fabulous Day" on the inside.

The beautiful Sankari Wegman created this fun sketch for us to play with! It might appear to be a bit challenging, but wait until you see what the design team ladies created... you will be inspired for sure!

My card features Discover Your Wings. I stamped the image in Colorbox Chestnut Roan Chalk Ink on white cardstock, which I then cut apart into squares. The patterned paper is from the gorgeous Lost & Found Blush collection by My Mind's Eye layered over kraft cardstock. I die cut the butterfly first with kraft cardstock and then with patterned paper to create a sort of shadow, topped off with a button and twine bow. Voila!

I turned the sketch on its side to create a Valentine card featuring Love Everywhere. I stamped the image in Memento Rich Cocoa ink on kraft cardstock. I then punched some hearts from the coordinating patterned paper and popped them up over some of the heart leaves in the stamped image, and added a couple of red heart buttons for a bit of color burst.

The patterned paper is from the Lost & Found Blush Collection by My Mind's Eye. I {heart} My Mind's Eye paper. Taylored Expressions has an amazing collection which you can find by clicking --> HERE.

You know me, I love square cards! My card features TE's SWAK petite stamp set. I have a "thing" for penguins because one of my sons loves them. ;)

The patterned paper is from the Crate Paper Paper Heart collection. I covered it with a piece of tulle covered in tiny dots (for lack of a better description). It's really got a lot of sparkle and texture IRL.

I hope you'll play with us! The sketch challenge runs until Thursday, February 9th, so you have plenty of time! In the meantime, take a look at what the rest of the Sketch Crew has created for your viewing pleasure:

Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge #150!

Happy Friday! It's time for another fabulous Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge!!! You can find us over at Splitcoaststampers in the Taylored Expressions Forum. In fact, all you need to do is pop over to the TESC Sketch Challenge #150 Forum Thread for all the deets on this week's challenge!!

We're celebrating the 150th sketch challenge by offering 3 new full-size stamp sets (Thankful, Love Grows Here, and Labels of Love II) to 3 random winners!!! Yowser!!!

Each of the design team members is also sharing her favorite sketch. How do I pick just one???

Speaking of which, did you know you can download sketches 1 - 120 for handy reference? Yes, indeed... you'll find the links on the Taylored Expressions Blog.

Anyway, here is the one I picked, probably because I'm a sucker for square cards. ;)

Now on to this week's sketch... perfect for this adorable image Snow a la Carte!!

I cheated a little and replaced the sentiment oval with a snowflake cut from patterned paper with one of my Winter Wonderland Snowflakes dies.  The patterned paper is from the Season's Greetings 6 x 6 pad by Echo Park.

For lots of great inspiration, check out what the rest of the Sketch Crew has created!

Hope Rekindled

Happy Friday! It's time for another fabulous Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge!!! You can find us over at Splitcoaststampers in the Taylored Expressions Forum. In fact, all you need to do is pop over to the TESC Sketch Challenge #148 Forum Thread for all the deets on this week's challenge, to grab the sketch and find out how you can win a $10 Gift Certificate to spend at TE by playing along with us... or a $20 GC if you use TE stamps!

You may know that Splitcoaststampers is currently hosting a card drive called Hope You Can Cling To for breast cancer awareness month. Taylored Expressions is a proud sponsor of the event for the month of October. Starting October 1st, SCS will have a new challenge every day to create cards for patients at the UT MD Anderson Cancer Center. So we're showing our support for the card drive with our sketch cards during the month of October. Taylor issued the additional challenge to the Sketch Crew to make a card of encouragement with the predominant color pink (although you certainly do not need to do that).

Here's the specific info from SCS about the HYCCT Challenges.  Your TESC sketch cards can be combined with any one posted HYYCT Challenge.

1. All Hope You Can Cling To Challenge Entries must be uploaded to the Hope You Can Cling To Gallery, with the specific challenge keyword, no later than November 7th, 2010 at 12:00 Noon Central time to be eligible for our fabulous prizes! Post a link to your entry in this thread.
2. You may not combine HYCC challenges, but you are welcome to create multiple cards for each challenge.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
4. Please package all challenge entries with an envelope, protected with a clear plastic bag and mail them to our partner at the UT MD Anderson Cancer Center to benefit patients being treated for breast cancer and their families (address below). SCS would like for them to receive cards throughout the month of October, but understand if you'd like to mail all your cards at once.
5. Since these cards will be used by visitors for patients, most should be blank inside, but feel free to send cards with messages of hope for the patients in addition to your challenge cards!

The Department of Volunteer Services – Unit 115
Attn: Maggi Suttles
UT MD Anderson Cancer Center
1515 Holcombe Boulevard
Houston, TX 77030

(Please note - because MD Anderson is part of the State of Texas, they ask that no religious sentiments be used on cards sent to the Cancer Center.)

Unfortunately, I did not read the "fine print" directly above before making my card, so I guess I can't send it in since it mentions prayers. In fact, the full sentiment (which is a bit hard to read in the photo) is "Expect to have hope rekindled. Expect your prayers to be answered in wondrous ways. The dry seasons do not last. The spring rain will come again." -Sarah Ban-Breathnach.
  
As a Christian, I find it sad that they won't accept cards with religious sentiments. To me, the only HOPE is through Jesus Christ our Lord. But I still think it's nice to send cards of encouragement for those facing this awful trial... and I believe many of those who pick up the cards to write messages to patients will include scriptures and religious sentiments!

The sentiment and flourish are from the Faith & Hope stamp set by Taylored Expressions, paired with patterned paper and embellishment from the Sidewalk collection by October Afternoon.

What a fun sketch! I thought it was perfect for this ADORABLE stamp set called Green Acres. Of course, it coordinates perfectly with patterned paper from the Farmhouse collection by October Afternoon... and oldy but a goody (just like the TV show Green Acres...haha!).

We've got a square card sketch this week, which I love! I pulled out a new favorite TE stamp set...  Treasure Life...and the coordinating Apothecary Jars dies. Dew Drops were used to create the jars' contents. ;) The patterned paper, lace and ribbon were some scraps I found while cleaning up (purging) my craft room... a task long overdue! I'm still miles away from finishing, but at least I'm chipping away at it a little each day. At this rate, I might be done by Christmas! Just kidding. It better not take that long.

I've been on break from crafting and blogging, so making a card for today's sketch challenge was... well... challenging! lol It felt really strange to sit down in my craft room (which, by the way, still needs a good purge and clean-up!). To "warm up," I took my color cues from the stamp set itself.

My card features images from the super cute Life is a Circus stamp set. I love this set!!! I can't wait to play with it some more.

Yours truly came up with the sketch (*grin*), so I'd be extra pleased if you'd join us for the challenge. You have until Thursday, August 25th to play... plenty of time! Come on, you know you want to! ;)
