Yvette is our featured artist today. Her mix of bright colors and pops of black go so well with her selection of playful photos. And I love all the bits and bobs she has sprinkled about to highlight the action.

We are so glad you joined us, Yvette. Please grab our "featured" button below and wear it on your blog.

Now here's another look at the sketch:

Please link up your layouts over in the sidebar by January 29th to be in the running for one of our prizes. All prizes will be drawn randomly using Random.org to pick a number.

When linking your layouts, please make sure it is linked to the specific post your layout is in, not your blog as a whole as it can be hard for our team to find your layout, especially if you blog often. You can also link from any gallery including Facebook and Flickr (though we may not be able to comment in all forums).

Feel free to combine this sketch challenge with other non-sketch challenges, such as colour challenges.

Please post a link back to Stuck?! Sketches on your blog entry for our challenge. We would also love for you to share the sketch!

Thank you for visiting us today. If you haven't yet tried your hand at creating with this sketch, please do and then let us see what you've made. We really love to see your work.
