Good morning SCT friends! We have been planning this day for quite awhile now and are thrilled it's finally here! And you're here TOO! We're glad you came to join us for World Cardmaking Day 2012!!
Today we thought we would do something fun and have a short post each hour from now until 10:00 p.m. tonight! Some of our favourite designers are joining us and at various points along the way we'll have a Prize Patrol offering a prize for a lucky SCT reader! Every hour on the hour we will partner a designer, with one of Becky's fabulous PageMaps card sketches and a month in the year so that by the end of this day you'll have a sketch and a card for almost every occasion! Sound good? Then let's start with a little inspiration warm up...
We love this fabulous colour combination and challenge you to get those creative juices flowing!
Challenge: We want you to create a card mixing 3 patterned papers, 2 colours of cardstock, 1 red button and a pretty flower. Don't forget the heartfelt sentiment! Can you do it? Well if you do, and link it to this post or send it to us at ideas@scrapbookandcards.com, we'll pick one lucky winner to win this...
and this long sold out copy of CardMaps 1...
So let's get started on our way! Please join us each hour starting at 9:00 a.m. and going right through until 10:00 p.m.!!!
See you at 9:00 a.m! Vicki Boutin kicks off our monthly inspiration, don't miss it!
