That's right, I said FREE! Since our 200th TCP Challenge is a sketch challenge we are giving away a fancy Cat's Pajamas Sketch Book featuring virtually every sketch challenge in TCP history! It's a great reference to get those creative juices flowing. Page after Page of sketchy goodness!

But that's not all!

Comment on any of The Cat Packers blog posts that feature our 200th TCP Tuesday Sketch Challenge by Tuesday, March 13 and you could WIN our complete NEW release! (That's the next one that I finished drawing yesterday!) And that includes the dies, too!

The more times you comment, the better. I'll announce the winner on this blog on Wednesday, March 14.

Ready for the sketch? It's a good 'un. Leigh is our Hostess with the Mostess and she's come up with a pretty sketch to play with. Hop on over to her blog and take a gander at what she's come up with.

Then head on over to Nancy's blog and take a peek and what wonderful goodness she's created mixing our "Nesting" set and our "Home Tweet Home" CutUps.

And Lori hits it out of the park with her interpretation of the sketch. LOVE it.

Jenny just makes my jaw drop with another of her fantastic cards. Take a look. I think you'll agree with me that it is just stunning!

The Best of the Best

Did you get a chance to take a leisurely look through all the entries in the Blog Hop? There were so many truly wonderful designs encompassing everything from a card to a votive candle holder to a back to school set. I was so inspired and touched by all the designs.

It was really hard to choose A Best. All the entries were truly the best designs using The Cat's Pajamas.


Check out this wonderful Back to School Set by Juliana Swanson she made for her daughter starting first grade using our Puppy Love Clearly Swanky Set. Such a great idea. I love all the wonderful components. A notebook, a pencil case and a really fancy eraser. All so beautifully colored. She even made a matching card. Truly wonderful. Makes me want to be in first grade all over again.


Now check out this standout card from Melissa Hubert. She uses Whale of a Time Clearly Swanky Set and our brand new CutUps Wave die. I love, love, love the paper and color selection of this card. It just POPS. Notice the texture of waves? Oh my. I love the layout of this card.



So now the winner of the Blog Hop. It was truly such a hard decision to make because every one was so very special. The winner is Beate Johns' tent card. She also uses Whale of a Time. This card just SINGS. I ADORE the mix of patterns in this card and the sewing detail. It's a little like me. A little straight-laced, a little crooked here and there. And the coloring of the whale? It takes my breath away.


Then look at how she used the CutUps Wave die with the rounded part and not the pointy part of the wave. It really gives a whole new flavor to the design. What I love the most about this card is that I can't picture any other stamp or die in this card besides what Beate used. It's truly a wonderful synergy between the stamp, die and card design. Brilliant.

Thank you all for playing in our first ever Customer Blog hop. I hope you had fun playing and sharing and looking. And I hope it inspired you. I know it did me.
