National Scrapbook Day Sketches with Prizes

With National Scrapbook Day, I wanted to throw out an extra sketch this week. I am very excited to say that not only am I uploading a Layout Sketch but also a Card Sketch. I hope you enjoy them. I can't wait to see your take on the Sketches!

And with it being National Scrapbook Day, I am also offering Prizes. I am giving away, not one, but two $10 Gift Certificates to Scrap Freak, an online Scrapbook Store and Message Board. Here is how you have a chance to win them.

First, I will be doing a random drawing for one Gift Certificate. All you have to do is either create a card or layout using one of these sketches and upload a link in the comment section of where I can find your creation. All those who participate, will be put in the drawing.

The second one is a bit different. I will be rewarding one of my subscribers with a Gift Certificate. If you are already an active subscriber to this blog, than you are already in the drawing. If you are not, it is real easy to subscribe. There is a box in the right hand column for email subscriptions. You will get Sketches! in your email everytime I upload a new one. It is that easy!

Now, you are probably wondering why a Gift Certificate. Well, first being that I live in Germany and to mail anything from here is outrageous. And who doesn't like to pick their own scrap supplies anyway?

Just so you know, you can be entered into both drawings. And, all Design Team Members are allowed to play. But you have to hurry. I will be drawing both winners on Tuesday, May 6th when I wake up in the morning!

I hope everyone has a FABULOUS National Scrapbook Day!

Chocolate Winner!

Thank you all for a fabulous week! I had eleven people submit cards in hopes of winning some chocolate from Germany. In the end, I used a Random Number Generator and got a winner.

Before I announce the winner, I personally want to thank Monica, Trudi, Jodene, Robin, Maria, Jen, Carla, Nancy, Cheryl, Williams Family and Andrea for your fabulous cards. You are all really talented. I hope my card making abilities will some day be as good as yours.

I am also uploading all the cards for everyone to see how fabulous they are.

Just want to let you all know that this coming Saturday, October 6th, is World Card Making Day. I will be having yet another fantastic Give Away to celebrate. So, make sure you check back then.

And without making you wait any longer, Congratulations Robin! You are the lucky winner. Please email me at scrapbooksketches@gmail.com with your full name and address so I can send you some Chocolate. Please email me sometime before October 6th, or I will draw a new winner on October 7th.

Card Sketch with Chocolate!

As my blog stats, I am an American Living in Germany. And today marks the one year mark that we have been here. So as a way to celebrate, I am uploading a new card sketch. A long with it, I will be offering one lucky person a good assortment of German Chocolates. Now, I know most people might think that scrap supplies might be a nicer prize. But first off, I am in Germany. There is no place to really shop here for supplies. I rely on my friends and family to keep me stocked. Plus, I am living in the land of fabulous chocolate. So I thought it was a great idea for a prize since I am celebrating being here. Now if you are one of those who are thinking, "isn't chocolate, chocolate?" The answer is no! German chocolate is soooo good!

Like I mentioned, one lucky person will win this fabulous chocolate. You have from today until Next Saturday, September 29th to complete this card sketch and link your card you made in the comment section. I will then draw one lucky winner on Sunday September 30th from all those who linked their card creations.

As stated above, I will post the winner on September 30th. The winner will have one week to contact me with their name, address and email address. If I do not hear from the winner, then I will draw a new winner on October 7th.

For those that are interested in my families adjustment to life in Germany, you can see my personal blog at Living In Germany .

Have a great weekend! I will be back Monday with a 12 x 12 Layout Sketch!
