Before we go any farther, you might not have seen yet that the awesome folks over at Hero Arts realized how crazy busy our lives are at the holidays and they wanted to give everyone more time to play with us, so they extended the sketch challenges until December 28th! BIG YAY! How awesome of them! So now you have no excuse! You can check out the beginning of our week here to see the very first sketch and learn about all the things you can participate in/sign up for to win goodies! AND while i'm at it, let me give a sneak peek into my "superdidooper" prize I was telling you about all week....
Tempt you yet?! This is only some of the goodies that are in that box. (Yes, that's an entire package of BasicGrey's Bittersweet you see there, too!) As I mentioned I keep finding more things to share, so I don't think you'll have to shop for months! Just remember to be entered to win this package, leave a comment telling me something (anything!) on one of the posts from this week (including this one). I'll leave comments open until 11:59 PM Eastern Time on Friday and will have a winner announced by Monday, so get those fingers typing!More tomorrow and enjoy your day!

Wow, what an awesome package. I love the color combo on the Poser layout--among many other favorites at Hero!
I am so glad I found you online!! You are truly an inspiration to everyone!!
You have opened up the doors to so many other talented and creative artists by following the links you provide.
I just wanted to say "Thanks" for all you do and Happy Holidays!
You had me at "Bittersweet." LOL. Seriously, those are so very much my colors. I'd love to see it in person (and even more so love to see it in my own mailbox!) :)

Wow I haven't been on in a few days! Great prize and just let me say that I am so excited about that "Conversation Hearts" page from a few days ago!! I have the perfect picture that I have waited to scrap of my grandpa and my daughter (she is 19 now and was almost 2 in the picture). They both have/had birthdays on Valentine's Day! My grandpa meant the world to me and died before my daughter really got to know him. Anyway I have to find that paper and do a layout like that - it would be perfect!!! Merry Christmas! and thanks for the inspiration!
Gee... what can I tell you... How about this:
Did you know that even though Pluto is not a planet, the toy makers are still including it on their solar systems? (Yes; we bought one for DD as a gift.) For some reason I thought they'd have removed it... guess not!
I can't imagine anything better
(in paper crafts) than the pairing
of my favorite paper (Basic Grey) and
my favorite stamp company (Hero Arts)!!!!
Bittersweet is easily my favorite line since urban couture... I know, I know. I just can't seem to move on from that line! Beautiful prize package. Thanks for the opportunity and the ever-present inspiration! -Jaime
I love your blog and check it daily! I love all of the fun things you do...you always keep it exciting! Keep up the great work!
Wow, what a yummy package, this is so tempting!
Wow, those basic grey and Hero Art goods look super sweet. So gorgeous. Thanks for sharing. Kim
Holy amazing package!!! That is awesome! I am enjoying the combined product showcase, too!
Oh My Gosh I would die if I won all those goodies. So many adorable products. I can't wait to pick up the BitterSweet line.
Love the new Bittersweet paper by Basic Grey. Once I saw it on your blog I ran to the scrap store but it had not arrived yet. Can't wait to use this paper. Thanks for sharing.
Katrina

i am new to your blog and OH MY WOWSERS!!! that superdidooper pkg looks awesome!-about the sketches- i am a freehand scrapper- if thats what you call it i guess-i could definitely see how they help, cutting time and pressure, but do you guys ever feel almost restricted, or like your not letting your imagination run wild by sticking to them?

Of course I had to buy them and I got the bonus of the 2009 catalog!! AWESOME!! I imagine this package would go with my new stamps perfectly!!
That's the BEST goody package I've ever seen...I would LOVE to have that delivered to my front porch!
