Candy News

The closing date for this piece of blog candy will be 6pm (UK time) next Friday 17th April, and then I'll draw up the list and do the draw for a winner.

Just a few little sneak peeks of the prize I'm making for the winner:


If you'd to get your hands on this prize you'll have to do more than just leave a message -to be in with a chance of winning this prize you need to make a card following the sketch below, then leave a message to tell me where I can see it. Only then will your name go into my Virtual Fedora.
Here's the sletch - you've still got plenty of time to have a go and everyone who does is in with an equal chance of winning the prize. I might even get round to making a card myself and then I can put my own name in that hat too lol
Good luck

Sketch 2009 #8: Circles, Wiggly Bits & Candy!

I've been a bit slow to add a new sketch, but I hope this one
will prove nice and easy to work with.

I've got an idea for my card, but just haven't got round to amking it yet.
Nothing new there then. I'll add it here as soon as....

If you do make something using this sketch, please let me know so I can come and see - and add you to the links list too.

We're crawling towards 1000 visitors to the Sketch File which is fab - I think there'll have to be a little Blog Candy prize on offer during the time this sketch is at the top of the blog.

Make a card using this sketch, let me know where I can see it and I'll put your name in the "virtual hat" - not sure what the prize will be yet, mind, but I'll come up with something!

As usual, I'd be grateful if you tell people where you found the sketch if you use it.

Please join in, I always look forward to seeing what my fellow crafters make using the sketches.

Sketch 2009 #7; Torn Trios

A torn edge threesome and a trio of circles for this sketch. I hope you have a ripping good time with this one.
The usual stuff applies about leaving a message, the links list, giving credit etc
My card is finally done: Papers are Fancy Pants Key Lime Pie

ps. Jackie and Gez have been busy making cards using older sketches as well as the more recent ones (thanks, you two!) - so do scroll down the links list to find them - they've made some great cards, it would be a shame to miss seeing them. :)

Sketch 2009 #6; Swirls & Waves

Something a bit less complicated this time.


I thought a change from scallops was in order so this time there are wavy lines to play with. And a swirl. And a flower - or any other focus item you fancy (I think a monogram would work well for a male version). Anyway, as always, if you use the sketch, please do come back and let me know and I'll add a link in the sidebar to your blog.

Here's one of the cards I've made using this sketch
Looking forward to seeing what mt fellow crafters make

Have fun

Sketch 2009 #5; Layer It Up!

Lots of Layers on this latest sketch - I nearly called it "7 Veils" lol
As always, I'd love to see anything you make using this sketch so please come back and leave a message if you use it in your crafting. I'll add your link to the blog roll on the right if you do.
Please remember to let people know where you found the sketch.

Here's the card I've made using Sketch #5

Have fun

One for Sketch #4

Thanks to those who've already made a card using this sketch - all the cards are fab - if you've not laready checked them out, there are direct links to the blogs of those concerned in the list on the right, along with links for all the other sketches too. There's no time limit on using these sketches, so just add a message whenever you use one and I'll add your link to the relevant list.

There'll be a new sketch along soon - it's all ready to load - probably at the weekend, but first, guess what? I've finally managed to make a card myself!

Here's a little reminder of the sketch in case it's too much bother to scroll down. lol

Sketch 2009 #4; Lines and Layers

A little bit late with a first sketch for February, but never mind, eh?

I hope you like this one and will find it helps get those creative juices flowing. I'm hoping it'll kick-start my mojo as I think the jet-lag has put a stop to any of that creative stuff happening around here atm!
From that remark you'll gather there's no card yet from me, but hopefully there will be one soon - with Hubby's birthday coming up at the end of the week I do need to find that mojo soon.....
I'd love to see any cards you make using this sketch, so please let me know if you use it in your crafting - if you leave a message telling me where I can see your cards for each sketch I'll add your bloglink to the list on the right to make it easy for everyone to visit your blogs and see your fabby work
Please do give credit to the Sketch File and point people in this direction with a link - thank you!
