ACOT Message Board

Thank you to everyone who participated in last month's challenge. I hope you all enjoy this one, too!

This month's This Seems Sketchy Challenge has us seeing double! I chose a two-page sketch I found on Pinterest, created by Susan Stringfellow.  I scrap mostly one-page layouts, so I chose to use only the left side for my example. For this month's challenge, you can be entered up to 3 times per entry for a chance to win!


One Entry: Pick one side of the sketch and create a paper or digital one-page layout for one entry.

Two Entries:  If you create a one-page layout, show me some leaves for a second entry. They can be any type of embellishment, punched, die cut, printed in your paper, or even in your pictures!  OR, to be entered twice, use both sides of the sketch and create a two-page layout.

Three Entries:  If you create a two-page layout using both sides of the sketch, AND show me some leaves, you will be entered three times!



In my one-page example, I used wood and fabric leaves, and there is also leaves in my patterned paper. If my page were an entry, I would be entered twice. If anyone has any questions, please post it here or PM me.

The Rules:
Open to layouts only, paper or digital
Must be new work using the provided sketch
Multiple entries are allowed and you can combine with a any other November challenge that allows, please post which one if you do combine
Please link your work here and in the gallery spot I've provided
Deadline is midnight 11/30/14
A random winner will be chosen to receive a $5 ACOT gift card from me!

Have FUN & I'm looking forward to seeing all of your work!

I had 26 participants totaling 64 entries!!  I LOVED seeing all of your work, and I'm so glad you all enjoyed the 2-page sketch...I will definitely keep that in mind for future challenges!  With that......the winner selected by random.org is #41 shoorn! Congratulations, I'll be getting your gift card off to you shortly.

With such an overwhelming response to this month's challenge, I think a RAK is called for, too!  The winner of the RAK is #58, stephrae!  Please PM me your address so I can get your package out to you.
 

It's a great sketch, Stacy and wonderful example!!
 

Yikes....when I saw the two page sketch I was frankly quite scared!! So glad we can do just one side or maybe I will be brave and try to do a two pager!    Love your layout Stacy!

Stacy your layout is beautiful! 

Fun challenge, Stacy!  Love Susan's sketches, and the choice of three entries is way cool!  LOVE your page example!

Love your layout - it's beautiful! The sketch is fun, too.

Love your LO!

Beautiful layout! Love your layout and challenge!

Awesome challenge! Can't wait to get started on this

Love your LO! Gorgeous colors and design. Wow, what an amazing sketch.

I'm SO glad you all are liking this month's sketch. Can't wait to see what you ladies do with it!

I love the sketch and I love doing 2 pagers. I am going to shoot for 3 entries

Wonderful layout! I love the papers you used!

Fabulous sketch! I actually prefer to do 2-page layouts when I'm working on a themed album, so I am looking forward to using this one!

Thanks so much for the challenge!

Well poop! I was shooting for three entries but forgot my leaves, unless the small ones on the pumpkins count LOL! Here is my take!

Great job with the two pager! You DO get the bonus..there are leaves in your flower embellishment at the top of your left page, and there are leaves in your patterned paper    Your pumpkin patch pictures are so cute, and I love all the little touches you used on this, the frames, the pumpkins, the flowers. Thanks so much for taking my challenge! 

woohooo! I didn't even catch those leaves! Thanks for the compliments I really liked how this one turned out! Thanks for doing the challenge!

Here's mine and I think I got the leaves part covered. I even have washi tape that has leaves on it. I went for the 3 entries on this one and also did the 2 pager.

OMG You have inspired me so much with your little guy! I love that you have already printed and scrapping these moments. He is such a trooper and love your title work and of course washi work!!!

Here's my page for this great sketch!  I made a two page layout AND used the leaves in order to get the three entries---thank you!  My leaves, by Recollections, are in groups of three, one on each page.  There are also itsy-bitsy leaves in the orange floral pp on the left page!

I am combining this challenge with the Nov. Three in a Row challenge.
