Limelight sketch and paper challenge

Are the presents bought and wrapped? Is the tree decorated? Are the holiday lights twinkling? Is your head spinning faster than a dreidel? It's the most wonderful time of the year! This week we encourage you to stop, and take a minute to do something for yourself! Grab your favorite patterned papers (or wrapping paper for the multitask-ers!) and sit down with our simple sketch. We can't wait to see what you'll create! We are a week early here for another round of a sketch challenge with Limelight, BUT we figured we'd have better participation if we posted it this week instead of next week (which is Christmas!).




  • Sketch and Product Challenge with a focus on your favorite Limelight patterned paper.


  • Uploads to SCS should have the keyword: LLPC011.


  • Participants should post a comment and a link to their card on Mandy's blog, all entries must be submitted by Sunday, December 21st, at midnight.
    Here is how I used the sketch.

I love when I can take a card sketch and use it on a scrapbook page. I just flipped it to work with the orientation of my picture. We took the boys to see Santa on Monday and I only ordered 1 picture, this 5x7. I was afraid it might get lost from now until I am ready to scrap it so I went ahead and put a quick page together. Isn't that paper fun?! It is from TaDa and it is called Okee Dokee-Pokee Dot (even the name it fun)! The buttons are the Wassail buttons from Basic Grey and the ribbon is the gorgeous new satin ribbon Mandy added to the store a month ago. Come play along, link your creations to Mandy's blog and you could win, are you ready for this? Mandy is in a very generous mood (she is always generous with her give aways, but I'm super excited about this one!) she will give the winner a brand-new Basic Grey Bittersweet 6x6 paper pad!!! How cool is that? Enough incentive to play? Get to it and have fun with the sketch!

Hugs, Lisa
