How to link up with Sketch N Scrap!

Good evening!  Before the month comes to a close and we start another new month filled with more fun sketches and amazing inspiration we wanted to take a few minutes to remind our readers of our guidelines and rules.  Beginning February 1, 2015 we will no longer be giving reminders to those who do not follow our rules and your entries will be deleted.  We ask for your understanding and assistance with this matter, we LOVE seeing your entries but if they do not follow the rules for our prize drawing it is to much work at the end to figure out who is eligible or not due to high number of entries we receive so starting February 1st if you link up and do not see your entry appear within 24 hours it may have been deleted.  The most common mistake is adding the "twist" to you Twistback Thursday challenge, make sure and look for the "twist" and incorporate that into your challenge as this is not just a sketch challenge!  Our amazing DT member Susan has made a wonderful tutorial for those who may need help linking up.  She has listed our rules and had included pictures to help you link up (as we understand some of our readers are new to challenge blogs!) Please visit Susan's tutorial under our guidelines tab at the top of our blog.  You can view it here as well.  Thank you for your support of Sketch N Scrap we look forward to another inspiring month with our wonderful readers!

Twistback Thursday #1

Welcome to our new challenge for 2015!  This year instead of our "Inspired by" challenge we will be doing a new challenge called Twistback Thursday....the second Thursday of each month we will post a throwback oldie but goodie sketch from our archives but with a "twist".  You will have until the last day of that month to play along with this challenge as you do all of our challenges!  So let's get the party started with this sketch from May of 2012 by Lisa:

 And now for the TWIST: Out with the old and in with the new in 2015: use something old that is a year or more old on your layout as well as something that is new.  Make sure and tell us what you used that was old and what was new!  Here is what our DT did with the sketch:
