Welcome to Stamps and Smiles - First Preview & Challenge - SASSC1

Hello & welcome!! I so excited to announce the release of my NEW stamp line called Stamps and Smiles. All week long you will see samples using each of the five NEW sets being released!! PLUS I have a week full of challenges and giveaways!!

Now through Thursday February 26, I will post a NEW sketch challenge and a sneak preview of one of the NEW sets. You will have until Saturday at 7:00 pm central time to upload your cards to SCS using the keyword provided in the challenge.

One random winner from each of the daily challenges will win the set I preview for that challenge. Want to win the entire release? One random winner that completes all 4 challenges will win the entire release - a $75 value. Please have your card uploaded to SCS by Saturday at 7 pm. The winners will be announced on Monday, March 2.


Here is the first sketch challenge, please include SASSC1 in the keywords for SCS. If you upload to your blog, please include your blog linking your card to today's post. Feel free to use any stamps you would like in any of the Stamps and Smiles challenges.
