February's featured artists

  Happy March! Thank you to everyone who joined us last month!  I think we can say it was an awesome month!!!  The DT was inspired by all the amazing entries shared both on the blog and in our Facebook group in February!!  What creative projects everyone shared!

It's time to announce our featured artists for February!  First up is our featured scrapper!  It was a hard choice again this month but the DT selected this amazing layout created by Cynthia using throwback sketch #236 for our February 15th sketch challenge!

The DT loved Cynthia's take on the sketch and how she used this large shield as the focal point of this beautifully embellished layout!  

Congratulations Cynthia!!!

Next up is our featured card maker. Congratulations goes to Marilyn!  Marilyn used the February 5th card sketch to create her card. 

The DT loved the vintage feel of this card as well as the fun mix of patterns that Marilyn used on it!  

Congratulations Marilyn!!!

Sketch N Scrap #314

 Happy March! We are kicking off a new month and a fun new theme here at Sketch N Scrap!!  This year we are changing things up a bit, we are offering a new sketch twice a month on the 1st and 5th, then on the 15th and 20th we will be challenging you to create a layout or card using a throwback sketch!  We are also adding a "TWIST" challenge to our sketches this year!  Each month we will have a "THEME" and each sketch will feature a "TWIST" based on that theme.

 This month's theme is: OVER THE RAINBOW

Since it's a new month that means it's time for another fun sketch!  We are kicking March off with a fun 2-photo sketch for you to try.  Today's sketch was created by sketch artist Lisa.

Here is the sketch:
