And the Winner IS....

I hope you all enjoyed the TCP Tuesday festivities and contest and had a chance to download the FREE sketchbook containing virtually all of the TCP Tuesday Sketches. That's nearly 40 sketches that you can use to get your creative juices flowing. I know that I'm going to be cracking that book open quite frequently.

And now, the WINNER of our TCP Tuesday contest...

Who will win our complete NEW April Release...

Yes! There will be one in April!....

Probably early April....

That is all the stamps and CutUps dies!.....

And, judging from the reaction of the Cat Pack, it's a good one!

There just might be another Sprinkle in there....

And maybe a couple of PJs.....

Stamping is good clean fun, isn't it?

Mmmmmm...








Where was I?....

Oh yes the winner is...

G!

She won by placing this comment on Susan's Blog!

LOL you are too funny!! what a great card- love how you combined all the sets- you totally rocked the 6 boxes! so hope you'll take the challenge & try more stamps next time too! WOOT!

Congrats, G! Please contact me by March 21st, with your information and I'll get your stamps and dies out on release day.

Thanks for playing everyone!

Are you "In" it, yet?

Are you in it to win it, yet? "It" being sets from our NEW release on June 28? All you have to do is comment on this thread over at our Splitcoaststampers Forum.

Each day of Sneaky Peek Week (Starting Tomorrow) we'll be showcasing a NEW set from our release, and each day we will pick a random comment, to win that set of the day. If one of the Cat Packers or Swanky Stampers win, the next person in the thread will win.

Winners will be announced on the Sneaky Peek Thread!

It's that easy. You can comment as little or as much. Head on over there and comment.

In It To Win It

Did you have a chance to check out the Splitcoaststampers Wednesday Tutorial? Our very own Amy Rohl created an awesome tutorial using one of the stamps from our next release on June 28.

We've had so many of you ask about it, that we've decided to give it away! Along with ALL the other stamp sets in the release. Like the one we are showing above.

Want to win something?! All you have to do is comment on this thread. It can be about anything. The tutorial, techniques you like to use, some you'd like to see, the weather. Anything you want.

Then each day during our Sneaky Peek Week, starting on Tuesday June 21, we'll randomly choose a winner from the comments on this thread. The winner will win the set that we are Sneaky Peeking that day.

And all you have to do to win is comment! The more comments the better. Easy Peasy.

Ready? Set? Go!

I {heart} SFYTT

Yes, I truly do. Which is why the second post for the day. {GASP}

Jen and her band of merry gals are so talented, that I constantly go to here to get ideas and layouts for cards. I'm glad that they are back. So much so that The Cat's Pajamas is sponsoring the month of January!

Yup, SFYTT is changing things out a bit with sponsors for prizes for each sketch! And a super fantastic GRAND Prize at Christmas time! Check SFYTT for the deets. And play along. It's FUN!

And the WINNER is...!!

Thank you to everyone who played in this TCP Tuesday Challenge to help celebrate our 100 TCP Tuesday.

There were so many players and so many great cards, but there were only two with the highest number of challenges. 10. They were all spectacular. Two with the same number of entries with the same fabulousness, so we did the only fair thing.
We used the random number generator to pick the winner. And the winner is:

Sonja Christoph!

Congrats Sonja. We'll be sending you all our Cat Pack's hot picks, and some of my favorite products, too!

Thank you to the fabulous Cat Pack for making this happen and for making each and every TCP Tuesday a special day. And thanks to Jen del Muro for organizing this contest while my mind was otherwise occupied.

TCP Tuesday Beary Fun Hop

It's Tuesday, but it's not just any Tuesday, it's TCP Tuesday. And not only is it the day of our Beary Special Release, A Beary Good Year, it's the day we announce the NAME of our Beary special bear.

So The Cat Pack and some Beary special guests have gotten together and put together a Beary Special blog hop and challenge for you!

Amy is our Hostess with the Mostess for this challenge, and she has Supply challenge for all of us. She wants you to use paper piecing. Want some examples? Start at Amy's blog and click on through. The blog before mine is Tracy's.

Here's mine. Along with the oh so versatile bear, I used paper from Cosmo Cricket's Girl Friday and Everafter pad. Along with my favorite plaid ribbon, this little card was so easy to do. I used one on Leigh's sketches from one of her past challenges as a guide. She keeps a slew of them on her blog for easy access.

Now remember, you can only be the Swanky Stamper if you play. Create your masterpiece and upload it to the guestbook by the end of the month to be eligible to win.

So who is the winner of the Who's That Bear Contest? We'll post the winner in just a couple of hours. Midnight PST
