There is still 1 week left to participate in Challenge #9.  Link up your creation by March 19, 2015 at midnight EST.

Play along and you may just be the random winner of a gift certificate to the YNS store!!!

There are 2 challenges to choose from  either a sketch or color challenge, plus, you can combine both if you really want to challenge yourself.

Check out sketch #9 – lots of rectangles and one circle, but remember that you can rotate the sketch and swap out shapes, such as replacing the circle with a star, etc.  So long as the basic sketch is clearly your inspiration you are good to go.

Here is the spring filled color combo for challenge #9.

If you choose the color combo, be sure to use at least 3 and feel free to add in neutrals.  The names of the colors are based on Bazzill cardstock, but substitute whatever you have that is close to it.
