Winner Day and Fun Challenges

Since I only had four entries in my weekend giveaway (I probably could've advertised it more), I decided to give all four some of the bunches of paper I won from Paper Haus magazine. That means, Lucille K, Kailash, Denise Bryant and Karen L K are my winners! Email me at the address in the side bar to let me know where to send your prizes! Or you can flickrmail me. Congrats, ladies, and thanks for commenting!

Now, then, if you're looking for a challenge, I have two for you to check out.

One of my favorites is over at Pretty Little Studio, where you can win a $5 gift certificate to their store. It's a weekly contest and you can use ANY product, it's not necessary to use PLS! 

$5 actually gets you pretty far at their store, their prices are so reasonable and their goodies are so cool and made in the USA. This is a small business, but they operate like a big business and I always get a little freebie when I order--I received some extra vintage die cuts when I ordered twice. 

This is a good chance for you to win, as the winner is a random pick and there aren't hundreds of entries like some places. They have a weekly challenge and if you're quick, you can enter this week's sketch challenge (or start fresh on the next challenge). This card is by their design team member, Lisa Spiegel, and it uses one of my favorite die cuts from PLS. I don't work for them in any capacity, just love their products and service and fun challenges, btw.

Here's a new challenge blog by Virginia's View Challenge. Virginia is one talented lady, and is featured this week over at Paper Crafter's Library.

This is her first challenge, Watercoloring, and I've been playing around ever since I heard about it. I'll have to focus and actually make something with all the painting I've been doing, but in the meantime, I've been having a blast trying out some new techniques.

Join me in some challenges this week, won't you?!

Happy Crafting,
Chark
