Challenge #78–December 17, 2011

Welcome to the Waltzingmouse Stamps Sketch Challenge. We are so happy that you have stopped by to get some inspiration and and to share your enthusiasm for Waltzingmouse Stamps, especially during this BUSY holiday season. We hope that you will find our samples so inspiring that you will play along with us. Even if you have never participated before, we invite you to play along.

This will be our last sketch for 2011, as we give the Mischief Makers AND you a chance to finalize your holiday preparation and not worry about missing a fun week playing along with the challenge.  We will resume with a new sketch on Saturday, January 7th

Let’s get things started by announcing the Top Mouse awards from last week's sketch challenge.

This week’s Top Mouse awards go to:

And the lucky winner from all the participants to receive a complimentary Waltzingmouse Stamps set of choice. This week the winner is:

Are you ready to get started on your own creation?  Gather your card stock, stamps and ink and get those projects ready.  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, January 6, 2012. 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, January 7th.  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 WMSC78. Better yet, why not upload it to your album in the Waltzingmouse Stamps Gallery?

How does a $10 gift certificate on your next Waltzingmouse Stamps order sound? Pretty good, huh?  Well, each week, a $10 credit is given away to a lucky winner (we call them our BIG CHEESE) and all they had to do to earn this credit was to upload their Waltzingmouse Stamps projects into the WMS Gallery.  Are you a BIG CHEESE? We have dedicated a special thread in the Waltzingmouse Forum (under ‘The Gallery’ topic) where you can let us know when you have uploaded a project to the WMS Gallery. One lucky BIG CHEESE selected from those gallery uploads will receive a promotional code giving them $10 off their next purchase from Waltzingmouse Stamps.  In addition they will have their BIG CHEESE project posted in a special BIG CHEESE album in the WMS gallery for all to see and adore.  Since you are creating wonderful WMS projects anyway, why not increase your chance of winning an extra special treat.

Sketch Archives:  You can now find all of the past Waltzingmouse Stamp sketches all in one place for those times when you want to jump-start your creativity anytime you are stumped. Take a peek right HERE.  It’s a wonderful place to start in you need a little inspiration.

Thanks for stopping by, and for playing along with our sketch challenge. We hope that you will tell your friends about our challenge.  The more the merrier, right?  I wish you all a very joyous holiday season and a very…

See you in 2012!
