HAPPY HOLIDAYS

  

Well, ready or not, the holidays are here! We are dropping by to wish everyone Happy Holidays and thank you for your support and participation in our sketch challenges. 

Our Design Team members are taking a much-needed holiday break until next year, but we will be back on Tuesday, January 7, 2025. We will be ready for another year of sketch fun. 

We hope everyone receives all the crafty goodies you hoped for... please come back and share them with us as we look forward to more fantastic interpretations of our sketches from you. 

With 2025 approaching, we thought it was a good time to ring in the new year by making a change in our scheduling of sketch challenges. This change has already been added in our tab "Challenge Guidelines" on our Blog. We are optimistic this change will provide more clarity. Our challenges will no longer be semi-monthly... instead, we have decided to go to a biweekly schedule. This means a new challenge will begin every other Tuesday. 

So take a deep breath and just enjoy the next few weeks or so.  Spend time with family and friends, and bask in the warmth of those around you. 

But if it is important for you to spend time in your craft room, our Sister Challenge, Double Trouble "It's Up to You", has a challenge open now to December 31st. 

See you in 2025!

Challenge #660

Welcome to TSOT!

We are glad you are here for our semimonthly sketch challenge. It's the first Tuesday of each month, and we encourage you to play along. For more information about participating in our challenges, refer to the tab titled "Challenge Guidelines."  

Challenge #660 opened on Tuesday, December 3, 2024, and will run through Sunday, December 15, at 1:00 pm Eastern Time (USA).

Here is the sketch:

A sketch is a puzzle. Use this sketch as inspiration and let's see what you bring out of your stash to make the puzzle pieces fall into place. And don't be afraid to puzzle us. Feel free to change the orientation of the sketch by rotating or flipping it, changing it from landscape to portrait, or vice versa, or using its mirror image.

You may replace the given shapes with other shapes (i.e., ovals for squares, a flower in place of a circle, etc.) as long as the basic sketch is visible in your project. If the sketch does not include a sentiment you are not required to add one but may do so. If the sketch consists of a sentiment you MUST include one on the front of your card. 

  
If you are looking for additional inspiration to create your card, we suggest you visit our sister challenge. For more details, we have provided a tab above for your convenience.

Enjoy using our sketch and be sure to tell your fellow crafters about us.
