EBTKS Challenge 10 - Fabric

Hey, Courtney here! It's been awhile since I've hosted. Recently I've been obsessed with all things fabric and sewing. So when I started to think about my challenge, fabric is immediately what I thought.
You are welcome to use fabric scraps you have, but we'd also love for you to think of fabric you have around the house. For example I used an old sweater that had a hole in it and needed to be thrown out. Or maybe you have a towel, t-shirt, pillow case.

The sponsor for this challenge is The Cutting Cafe! The winner will receive three sets of their choice. And since this is our 'Around the House Challenge' a guest design team spot is up for grabs! And speaking of guest designers, let's introduce this months, Tanis:


Tanis is such an incredible card maker! You won't want to miss her card for this challenge and where her fabric came from:

And here are the rest of the girls:

Around The House Challenge #5 -Box Tops

Good morning! Well it is time for another Around the House Challenge, and this time it is hosted by...Yours Truly (Winter)! :) And the item to use is a box top or the cardboard from a box. You should have seen all the empty cereal boxes at my house while making my projects! :)

And our sponsor this week is Kelleigh Ratzlaff from The Digichick. So we used a template from their store and our item (box top), to come up with these amazing projects! Here is what we came up with. You can go to each of our blogs to check out the details on what we did.

And stop by Kelleigh's shop at The Digichick for a template. She has some really cute ones and she are offering a supply a coupon code for 40% off a $15 purchase for every participant. How generous is that?! You do not have to use a template to participate, you just have to use a box top or something from a box. But the templates are really fun to use, so if you would like to purchase a template, you can email Courtney at courtneymbaker@gmail.com to get the 40% off code. I ended up getting two, and I think I will go back and get a couple more! :)

Sketch 3 Winner

Hi There!

This is Lynnette back to do the winner post. Before I get to that, I wanted to thank you all for helping out with Winter's card drive. She's had an awesome response and is so excited about it. I just know that those kids will be so blessed to receive their cards.
Now onto this month's sketch winner and divas. This was the first time I've ever come up with a sketch (other than my own little notebook), so I was a bit nervous about it. However, we were so excited with the number of participants and the amazing quality of the projects you created! I know it has been said before, but it was so hard to pick. This month's Winner and Domestic Divas are:



Check out their amazing projects:



Paloma, I will be emailing you to get your information to send the prize package to you. Please feel free to put the badge on your blog.
Thank you all for playing. Remember the next Household item challenge is coming up! Be sure to check back!
