5 on Friday

Hope everyone had a great week. This week was the shipping of the November kits and they are all out and heading your way. If you were lucky enough to win a treat during Croptober-fest, those are included in your kits. If you aren't a member, yours are winging their way toward you, too. No spoilers, but if you didn't play along in October, you NEED to join us the next time around, because (if I do say so myself) there are some delish Treats out there. There were: TV Dinners, Specialty kits, full-sized monthly kits and the Grandaddy of all Cookie Jar Treats, the Grand Prize. I can't say what it is, or it'll ruin the thrill of opening it for Bessie. So here we are, definitely slowing down from last month's free-for-all-challenges, and I think in general as people start to get ready for the holidays. We have a winner from last week's 5 on Friday, and it was Linda R. Super layout Linda; I'm really enjoying your work! Your Treat will be included with your next shipment (not this month's). Anyway, we need to get going on this week's Challenge. Here we go:
  • 1 Sketch (pick one from the two below)
  • 1 Sheet Cardstock
  • 1 Sheet patterned paper
  • 1 Set of brads
  • 1 Set of Chipboard embellishments

Now remember, you can create elements for your layouts using the ingredients above, but you can't add any other items. Layouts are due, with a link to your completed work, by Saturday evening. So, come one ladies -- grab a little time for yourself and earn the chance to win something non-fattening. Heaven knows I could use some non-fattening. Stupid Halloween candy!

Awesome sketches! I'm going through my memory card now to figure out what pics I want to use! Have a question, since I'm still kinda new here...Are we allowed to use spritz/ink/paint? I currently have a spritz addiction & want to make sure if it's allowed or not before I get started {lol}...Again, thank you for offering such a wide variety of challenges.

I'll post this here and email you, Nitasha. In this type of challenge paint would be considered an ingredient, and since it isn't listed on this particular challenge, I'd have to say "no." I'll keep your addiction in mind when I post the next challenge, however. We wouldn't want you going into withdrawls. :)

I've got one too!! I roughed up the chocolate colored chipboard to give it more contrast. The brads, although different sizes, are from the same set, Basic Grey Urban Prarie. Thanks for the great sketchs! Here is my page:
