Thanks so much to everyone for playing along with this sketch, it was really great to see the entries and we loved visiting your blogs and seeing what you created!
The TOP 3 for this challenge were extremely close! Actually the top 2 got exactly the same points and 3rd spot was just 1 point away! So well done ladies.....some pretty close voting for you all! ;-)
Firstly, if you had a page for the last challenge and could not add it because the link was already closed, please accept my apologies! I had the time set incorrectly! I have opened up the link, so you have until tonight 23h55 to add your page! Thanks so much..
Okay, for today's new challenge we have a Washi tape and Twine challenge set for you by the really talented and creative Elizna Parsons.
So all you need to do is use some washi tape and twine on your project!
We have a super, talented Guest Designer for this challenge and you might just know her! Cathi O'Neill!
Here's what Cathi has to say about herself.
I
am so excited to guest design for Scrap Africa! My name is Cathi O'Neill, and I
am an American who married an Irishman and I have been living in Ireland since
1997. I live in a beautiful village on the Shannon River with my DH of 18 years
(wow, that makes me feel old!) and my two beautiful daughters, Aine (onya) 10
and Aisling (ashling) 9 who are the subject of many of my projects!!
I
have always love crafting since I was a little girl. My grandmother taught me
to knit and crochet and I remember sewing Barbie doll clothes with her on her
front porch! I am a knitter and quilter as well, but have recently in the last
two years found cardmaking and scrapbooking, and an obsession was born!! I
truly love creating and make vintage cards to sell here in our local village
cafe as well as stacks of mixed media and shabby/vintage style layouts of my
girls to keep and share with family! I also love to do tags, ATC and altered
projects, barely a day goes by when I haven't done something crafty!!
I
am currently on the design teams for several manufacturers: Couture Creations,
Molossi Chipboard, Paper Wings Productions, Tresors de Luxe Etsy Lace Shop,
Visible Image stamps and Paper Temptress specialty cardstock store. I
also design for challenge blogs Frosted Designs and Sugar Creek Hollow, and
have guest designed for challenge blogs Keeping the Best and Scrap it with a
Song, C'est Magnifique Kit Club, Scraps of Elegance Kit Club and Crop Stop
online store. I truly enjoy the challenge and inspiration that scrapbooking and
cardmaking bring me.

Hello Everyone Welcome to September and a happy Spring Day to all of you, in the southern hemisphere! It certainly does not feel like Spring here in Johannesburg, as it is verrrrry chilly today! We had a cold front pass through this weekend, which has really made the temperatures drop! BUT, I am really excited at the thought of Spring, and the signs are certainly everywhere. So with the start of a new month, we have a new challenge too and a new sketch.
This is such a fun sketch and can be interpreted in so many ways. The Design Team really does showcase this diversity and you are sure to like what they have created!
In the same breath, I would also like to welcome back Kasia and Billie-Jean, who had little leave of absences. We are thrilled that you are back! ;-)
We hope that you are inspired and hope that you will throw all your creativity at this sketch, and show us what you made! ;-) It would be awesome if you could play along!
As always we have some random giveaways.
Evgenia has these super goodies up for grabs.
There are also these yummies from me.
We really look forward to seeing all your creations.
