Are you ready to get started on your own creation?  Break out your card stock, stamps and ink to create a card, tag, scrapbook layout or any paper project - just remember to include the basic sketch in your design and we ask that you use at lease one WMS image on your submission. We reserve the right to remove entries that do not comply with the guidelines as it is not fair to the players who do. Including WMS images on your project adds to the creative inspiration we gain each week from your wonderful creations.

Remember to post your projects using Inlinkz no later than 12:00 noon Central time on Friday, June 3, 2011. We will announce the winner of the stamp set and the new Top Mouse Award winners when the new sketch challenge is posted on Saturday, June 4th. Please use a direct link to your project and feel free to enter as many times as you like!

You don’t have to have a blog to play along with the sketch challenge. If you upload your project to any on-line galleries or forums, please use the keyword of WMSC49.

Sketch Archives:  Have you see the Sketch Challenge Gallery Archive?  All the sketches now have a home in the same glorious location thanks to Anya Schrier who organized the Sketch Challenge gallery for us.  Any time you are lacking inspiration of where to begin, just take a look at the gallery.

Do you do blinkies? If you don’t already have our Sketch Challenge Blinkie posted on your blog, we would be honored if you would grab the blinkie HTML code, that may be found on the sidebar, and find a place for it in one of your sidebars.  Displaying it on your blog helps us spread the Waltzingmouse Challenge word.

Have a wonderfully creative week!
