Monthly sketch and Giveaway Monday 10/1/12!!

Good Morning! With the first of this month here, I feel it gives me permission to break out the Fall/Halloween decorations. I love this time of year with the beautiful fall colors and fun activities, but I hate the cooling weather!!!  I am NOT a cold weather kind of girl!! The only advantage to it is that it keeps us indoors more so we have an excuse to play with paper!! It's time once again to offer up a sketch for our monthly sketch challenge here on the blog but before I do that, I would like to announce the winner from the participants of September's sketch...


SandiBSeptember 30, 2012 10:28 PMWhat a great sketch to work with. Love it!!! I found this picture of my daughter sitting on her great grandpa's lap with her book. Perfect sketch for this picture.
