Audrey's (Hippieaud's) Blog - PEACE, LOVE & CRAFTING: Better Late than Never!! NEW CHALLENGE AT SEW MANY CARDS

Hey everyone! Wow, lots of catching up to do today. Was gone most of the weekend watching my boys play in a soccer tournament. There were a lot of special things about this particular tournament:

1. last one of fall season
2. the bigger of our two club tournaments, meaning our soccer club puts on the whole tournament
3. my hubby (boys' dad) is on the board for the tournament
4. BOTH boys' teams won!!

As you can imagine, it was a great weekend, but with hubby at the tournament sites pretty much all weekend, I was carting the boys and typically a couple teammates of theirs all weekend and got very little sleep and NO blogging time!

Anyway, want to tell you all about our current challenge at SEW MANY CHALLENGES which is a sketch.

You have until 10pm EST on Thursday, Oct. 27 to enter our challenge - just follow the sketch!! While we'd love to see you using an image from SEW MANY CARDS, it is not required to play in our challenges. Additionally, there is a $1 special image at
SEW MANY CARDS for everyone, so go check that out!!

I went with a Halloween card again this week since we are fast approaching the holiday here in US. I chose the SEW MANY CARDS image "Porter as Dracula" from the PJ Pals collection for Stryder's Fund. If you haven't heard about this awesome charity, you'll definitely want to check it out at SEW MANY CARDS.

I colored the image with Copics, Atyou Spicas, Fiskars glitter pens and liquid pearl for the clouds. Image and backing paper cut with Lifestyle Crafts dies, ribbon from my stash, sentiment from Hero Arts clear, cut with Nesties. Crystalized bling from Prima, papers from Papertrey Ink and Cuttlebug folder used, DP from Doodlebug Designs. Hope you like it and will come play along:)
