I loved the way Marie used my sketch! Flipping it on its side was the perfect way to create this nautical number! Just look at the map with the embossed paper and the beautiful colouring she used on the ship! I love this cool masculine card! Congrats, Marie!

Seize the Sketch #20 {Some Changes}

Hello and welcome to Seize the Sketch. Lesley here! Before I get to this week's challenge we are saying farewell to a few crafty friends who have been on this team for a while.

First of all, a special thank you to Tangii Crain who stepped up and took over managing the blog for me while I was unwell in the winter. I could not have managed it without her and I appreciate how fun she is to work with and her killer organizational skills. She will be missed. Thank you, girl!

Amy Tsuruta, Jessica Esch and Sarah Gough are also stepping down from the team, to pursue other stamping opportunities! Amy and Jessica are both taking a temporary leave and congrats to Sarah on becoming the Creative Coordinator at Sugar Pea Designs! We are so proud of her! We will miss all three of these lovely ladies.

We do have some happy hellos! We are thrilled to welcome 4 new designers to our team!

Please welcome Sandy Mathis, Colleen Dietrich, Mona Pendleton & Marybeth Lopez. To learn more about these ladies...please visit our Sketchers page by clicking HERE.

This week we have a sketch by me, Lesley! The team has created such awesome samples to get you in the crafting mood! Come on and play along with my sketch this week! Remember ALL product is welcome!
