Woodware USA Challenge #44 - A Fun Sketch

Hello Woodware USA fans!! We have a fun sketch for you today from our very own -- Kerry Urbatch!! I love Kerry's sketches because they are always so indicative of her awesome style! We hope you love this week's sketch. I believe you can even adapt it into a square card if you would like...let your imagination be your guide!! However, I love shaking it up a bit and having a shaped card along the way!

Don't forget about the awesome new stamps we have in the Fall Release from Woodware USA. Some of us have been busily using them in our creations, but you will see A LOT more in the coming weeks!

Some simple rules to guide your week:

1. Only new creations (not backdated ones) will be considered for this challenge.
2. Only 2 entries per participant per week.
3. You will receive one entry per card for our monthly drawing. Use a Woodware USA image, and you will receive a bonus entry.
4. If you would like to be considered for our guest designer spot, please place an asterisk (*) next to your name.
