PMS Digi Makeover Challenge: Sketch Challenge

Sorry for the posting delay everyone! Jami is in bed with a nasty nasty cold! Let's all send her cyber get well hugs!!!!

A quick reminder that our rubber closeout sale is still in full force!

While the digis will remain on the site, we are clearancing out all of our rubber stamps. You can read THIS POST for more information. Orders are being shipped on a first come first serve basis and no new rubber will be ordered.

Ok... now onto our regular post for Mondays!!!

You can flip the sketch or modify is slightly, but you must follow the sketch in order to be eligible for the prize given out next week!

Cardabilities Sketch Challenge

This year, Paper Makeup Stamps is taking a different approach to our challenges. While we will still bring you challenges now and then directly from us, we have decided instead of hosting our own challenge every friday, this year we are sponsoring many of the challenge blogs that you may or may not already participate in!

Today starts the challenge from the Cardabilities Sketch Challenge blog that we are hosting.

Karan has provided this awesome sketch for your motivation...

Now the Cardabilities Design Team has made some awesome samples for you to see and many of them even use Paper Makeup Stamps! So be sure to check them all out!

But before you go over there, many of our designers have already played along and made these fun samples for you as well!
