PageMaps: A Sweethaven Summer sketch contest

A Sweethaven Summer sketch contest

As I hinted in a post yesterday, I recently read "A Sweethaven Summer" by Courtney Walsh, and I was serious when I said it was captivating ... a truly rewarding read. I don't want to give too much away, as I've always thought a book should unfold for each of us privately, so we'll have a contest to win a copy instead. Along with a signed copy of Courtney's novel, we're als including a copy of her scrapbook how-to called "Scrapbooking Your Faith," another madly wonderful book to inspire your faith-based papercrafting. To sweeten the pot a bit more, I've added a copy of Scrapbook PageMaps 2 and some wonderful BasicGrey goodies into the mix. :)


To enter, choose one of the theme prompts listed below and create a layout based on this sketch, in any size, any orientation, any way you want to interpret it and using any products you would like. Post a comment on this thread with a link to your entry. The contest starts today and ends at midnight, Sunday, May13, 2012 (MST). This contest is open to everyone, everywhere!




THEMES:

• Create a layout about a friend or friends you haven't seen in a long time (or "create a layout that celebrates a special friendship).
• Create a layout about a place that's special to you.
• Create a layout about a dream that came true (that is the theme of Courtney's sample page above).
• Create a layout about your first love.
• Create a layout inspired by the cover of "A Sweethaven Summer."

This contest will be running both on the PageMaps blog and on Courtney's blog, so feel free to enter on either one. Here's a link to her post.

Good luck all!

Becky
