Here's a rmeinder of the sketch, followed by a mini-book layour from Kathy
 
As it's Christmas Day next Tuesday. we won't be here, but we do have more projects to share, so we'll be back sometime between Christmas and New Year to share some of our ideas - so please call in to see what's new.  Meanwhile we'll take this opportunity to wish you

 a Very Happy and Peaceful Christmas

We hope you'll come back soon to show us what you've made, There's an extra week on the Linky for this sketch - it will be open till Tuesday January 8th, so plenty of time to get crafty with this one

Happy Crafting!

December Sketch: Hanging on the Line

Hello
Welcome to The Sketch File and our brand new December Sketch.
What will you "hang" on the line that goes across/down the LO?   Fairy Lights, Baubles for Christmas?  Or maybe it'll be a washing line filled with baby clothes.....or bunting decorating a festive LO
We don't mind what your project is - you can share a LO, card, ATC - anything really - we just hope you'll be inspired to get creative and that you'll come back and add your link so we can see what you've used our sketch to make.

 You're welcome to shrink, stretch or twist the sketch to make it work for you, so you might use it like this instead:

 We've a couple of cards to start off our "Ideas Library" this month and there will be more projects to see as the month goes on.



 We hope you'll come back soon to show us what you've made, There's an extra week on the Linky for this sketch - it will be open till Tuesday January 8th, so plenty of time to get crafty with this one

November; Hang OUt the Banner

Hi there

Thanks so much to those who joined in and used our sketch last month, it was lovely to see how you used it to make such fab creations.  Just because the InLinkz gadget has now closed on that sketch doesn't mean you can't still use it - and if you do we'd love to see more of your projects.  Just leave a comment and a link on one of that sketch's posts and we'll be over to see what you've made.

Now it's on to November's sketch, we hope you'll like it and find it useful in whatever crafting you do
Jackie has made this adorable Baby Card with it's cute row of baby things all hanging on that beautiful baby-feet ribbon!


Two "same stash" cards from Kathy, the second made mainly with scraps from the first

Please come back soon to see more ways the DT have been crafting with the sketch.  We're looking forward to seeing what you come up with too.

Happy Crafting!
