EBTKS Makes A Move!

Yep, you read that right. Everything But The Kitchen Sink Challenge has moved to its very own blog. You can find it here. And that's not the only exciting news! We have also decided to do TWO challenges each month. Here's the run down on both:

15th - EBTKS Sketch Challenge, this sketch will be based off something around the house (fridge, couch, etc.)

30th - EBTKS Household Item Challenge, this challenge is based on using an item we all have around the house.

And since today's the 15th... we have a sketch challenge for you all. Here was the inspiration for the challenge, my fireplace mantel:

And here's the sketch I based off of it!

I can't tell you how excited I am about this new side of EBTKS. I hope you like the sketch and that you'll play along.

Here is my card I made from the sketch ... I like to call it BLING BLING CHRISTMAS:


Card Stock: White (Papertrey Ink)
Pattern Paper: Eskimo Kisses (Basic Gray)
Stamps: So Many Scallops (Stampin Up!)
Ink: Old Olive (Stampin' Up!)
Die Cut: Snowflake #2 (Sizzix)


You'll certainly want to check out what the other girls made... so head on over to the Everything but the Kitchen Sink Challenge blog to see their fantastic work.

P.S. There is also a $25 Two Peas gift card up for grabs for the winner!
