Sketchy Thursdays fun--and a cool prize!

Isn't this purty?

As you know, I'm more of a blue and white Chanuka girl, but even I am swooning at these rich, lovely colors.

Want to win it? First, you have to LIKE Sketchy Thursdays on facebook.

Second, PLAY ALONG with the secret sketch (found only on facebook) and LINK your entry. You have from Dec 23 through Jan 5 to play along--and then if you win, you can scrap all of those holiday photos!

Here is my take on the sketch:



This one is about my cute little sis, in honor of her 13th birthday. Had SO much fun using the Studio Calico December kit on this one, plus some extras (fabricps and alpha).

The journaling reads: At 13, you are even more beautiful and kind and loving than I could have imagined. I feel so lucky that of all the families in the world, you were put into mine. Dec 10.

Here's a little close-up of the fabrip under the title:



On a totally different note, check out this cool geneaology project you can do on Ella--I have a review of it here. Follow the link and you can even learn some cool secrets about my family!



Hope you're having a great Thursday!! If I disappear from blogland tonight, it's because I'm having a blast here:

I'm going with my little sister and I can't wait!

Since I know this is an exciting time for so many of you, what are YOU looking forward to most in the next few days?
