Announcements!

There are 2 great events going on that I want you to know about:

1. Over at Practical Scrappers, there is a layout contest. Here are the details:

Last fall we hosted a massively successful card contest and now it is time to do the same but with a layout contest!  To get entered you don't even have to create something new!  All the details on that are below but first let's talk about prizes. We have over $100 worth of prizes lined up - look at this lineup of sponsors!  

Momenta

Creative Charms

The Paper Bakery

The Robin's Nest

The Sampler

Scrappin' Sports 

Boys Rule Kit Club

We will have all the details of the prizes finalized next week when we kick off the first round...but for now you know that you are getting a shot at some amazing Scrapping Prizes!

Here's the details: 

1) Each week we will narrow down the field thru audience voting, voting from the Practical Scrappers design team, or voting from the Administrative team.

2) The contest will have 6 rounds:  Those we have chosen for Round 1 will be announced on Saturday, January 14th and each continuing round will be announced on the following Saturday.

3) International entries are welcome, but we reserve the right to modify the prizes according to our sponsors needs should an international participant win.

4) To enter the contest mail us a picture of your favorite layout that you have created in the last two months to practicalscrapperslayouts@gmail.com - you must also include your name, blog address (if applicable), and state or country of residence.  We must receive an email with all three of these by midnight CST on Friday, January 13th!

Ready - Set - Go!

Doesn't that sound like fun? What are you waiting for?

2. Next, mark some scrappy time on your calendar during the month of February, because My Sketch World is hosting it's annual Sketch-a-Thon:

Each day, from February 1st to the 15th, Lucy will be unveiling a brand new sketch. You have until March 4th to share your creations inspired by the sketches at the My Sketch World gallery and forum to be eligible for some great prizes!
