Challenge #128–December 15, 2012

Welcome to the Waltzingmouse Stamps Sketch Challenge.  During this extremely busy time of year, we are thrilled that you stopped by and hope that you will join us for our challenge. Each week we are excited to see the amazing creative designs submitted by our talented Mischief Makers using Waltzingmouse Stamps images.

Before we get started today, I wanted to mention that there won’t be a challenge next week. Our Mischief Makers will be making ready their final holiday preparations, as I’m sure you will be, so we will take next Saturday off for Christmas. We will be back on December 29th with our Top Mouse winners and the announcement of the winner of the free stamps set, so you will have two full weeks to work and and submit your projects.

Today we bring you another fabulous “mojo starter” and are excited to see what you do with the sketch this week! So, let’s get right to the Top Mouse Award winners from last week’s sketch challenge. The winners are…

Kim Heggins

Deborah Frings

Cathy Weber

Congratulations to our Top Mouse winners this week. These are all outstanding creations. If you ladies don’t have a Top Mouse Blog Badge, or would like to update your current Top Mouse Badge to our updated Top Mouse Blog Badge, send me an e-mail at lmercurio at sbcglobal dot net and I will provide you with the HTML code for the new badge. We hope you will display it proudly.  Thank you for your participation and support of the challenge.

And now for the lucky winner to receive a complimentary Waltzingmouse Stamps set of choice:

JOSÉ

Congratulations, José! Please send Claire an e-mail at Claire.brennan1@ntlworld.com. Kindly provide her with your contact information and set choice, and she will pack up your selection and send it on its way to you.

As usual, we have another great inspirational sketch for you today. This week we have a sketch, created by our Mischief Maker, Kim Duran.  As you can see from the Mischief Makers’ and Design Team samples, there are many interpretations of the sketch. Set your mojo free and go with the flow.

I just read the news and it will be such a shame to see this wonderful challenge group go. i have sentimental attachment to this group, since the DT Girls are such an inspiration. It was also the first challenge site that really got me from never crafting to ongoing card making. Even though I haven't been able to play much in the recent year or so, I do love popping in here. A huge thank you to Claire for originating this idea, to Lynn for running this and to the rest of the team! I can't wait to see what comes into the next WMS chapter...
