November 15 2017 Challenge Featured Layout #2

It's time for another beautiful featured layout from one of our followers. But before we show you this inspirational page that was submitted to our November 15th sketch challenge, we want to recognize our sponsors.

A big thank you goes out to Lindy's Stamp Gang for sponsoring this challenge. They are offering one lucky participant a $25.00 gift certificate to their online shop!

Lindy's luscious luster is all uniquely two-toned! With vibrant shimmery sprays, flat sprays, vintage sprays, embossing powder and lots more! Lindy’s Stamp Gang is the creative” baby” of Lindy Plakinger. She passed away in 2008 after bravely battling illness. She was a self-made cartoonist, loved drawing, crafting, designing new products, and creating her funny cartoon characters! One of her greatest joys was traveling to stamping and scrapbooking conventions across the US, demo-ing to her heart’s content with her sister, and giggle partner, Vicki! Lindy’s Stamp Gang will continue, as was her hope, and dream. Her husband and daughter have taken over the company keeping her creativity alive. Tracey, (her daughter), has always been a “jar filler” in the background of Lindy’s Stamp Gang, but is now trying to fill some incredible shoes!

Miki is our featured artist today. She made the "Go for it" theme work so well with the background paper and stitched-down stars. And I love that shaker element!

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

Here's another look at the sketch:

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.

ALSO, We want to show you how much we appreciate that you play along with us and share your designs and talent with us so we will be choosing one scrapbooker from each challenge to guest with us at a later date! For example, our chosen scrapbooker from our November 15th challenge will guest for our January 15th challenge! 

Now let's get started with the challenge, here is your sketch....

Please help us welcome Barbara Hoffman-Ludwig as our guest designer for this challenge!!

I will let Barbara tell you a bit about herself....

"Hello, my name is Barbara and it’s a great honor to be a guest designer at Stuck?! Sketches. I live with my husband and three kids in a cute little town near Frankfurt in Germany. I started scrapbooking after the birth of my oldest daughter, at first to use the million photos of a newborn child, and now I try to document our family life and all the other beautiful things in my life.

I love sewing and using watercolors on my layouts and I love trying every new technique which pops up in the world of scrapbooking. On my Pinterest board I have a large number of sketches – I really love scrapbooking after sketches and challenges – they give me the motivation when my mojo has left me. You can find my work on my blog: www.tausend-schoene-sachen.blogspot.de. And on that note – Happy Scrapping!"

Here is Barbara's layout based on our sketch.

Thank you for joining us Barbara, we love that stitched ring of leaves!
