Weekend Fun

Since this is a long holiday for a lot of you, I thought I'd issue you a challenge.....and maybe have a sale.  Fun?

Okay, first off, the challenge.  I've been trying to incorporate some sketches into the weekly fun here on the Stash Blog.  Something you can try now (or later).  This month, we are the sponsors over at Pencil Lines Sketches so I thought using some of their sketches in a challenge would be perfect for this long weekend!

Each week, the release a new sketch and its up to you to create a layout (or card) using that sketch for a chance to win a prize.  

So far this month, they've released 3 great sketches:

You can choose any of their past sketches for this challenge though!

Upload your layouts and cards to the gallery.  In the description, you MUST put your name and the sketch that you used.  Feel free to share the products used as well.  
We'll pick two winners on Tuesday and send them a prize pack from the store that includes a Gift Certificate.  If you use any of the May sketches (shown above) make sure you visit the Pencil Lines blog to post a link and upload to their reader gallery for a chance to win another prize.  Pencil Lines chooses one winner each month and we've donated some goodies to them to giveaway as well.

Now for the sale.  Save 15% off your order this weekend (Friday-Monday) by entering REMEMBER during checkout.  

And to sweeten the deal, all orders totaling $25 or more after discount will receive free shipping.  (US Orders only).

Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

P.S. We want to know what you plan on doing this long, holiday weekend.  Post a comment here and we'll pick one winner on Tuesday.

Hello!!!

Thanks for the sale!! (I was an idiot and missed the birthday sale...but only because I was too broke to shop during April!) :)

This weekend our family will host our annual Memorial Day BBQ. Additionally, I plan to TRY and get some projects done. I've been digital scrapping for the last few months because it has been cheaper. But I am ready to pull out REAL paper and adhesive and all of the other fun stuff traditional scrapping has to offer! I might even get real crazy and pull out my Sizzix Big Shot! LOL!

As always, we will also be thinking of those who have lost their lives while serving our country as well as pay tribute to those who have served and are serving our country...

I hope you and your family have a wonderful long weekend!

xoxo,
candi

Hi and Happy Memorial Day! So - this long weekend, I plan to plant my garden, plant a flower in my front garden, mulch that garden and fence it. I will also go see the new Terminator movie and go out to lunch. I'd like to spend the rest of the time scrapping! I hope you enjoy your long weekend!
