SOUS Project Life Challenge - Stickles


     If you are looking for my SOUS Die Cut Challenge please just scroll down. Thank you. Hi, and welcome again to my blog where today I have a new SOUS Project Life Challenge for you. Today the challenge was Using Stickles. Stickles are a fine glitter suspended in a colored glue and can be used on everything crafty. They come in a lot of different colors making it easy to match whatever color you are using. It is kind of hard to tell in my photo but I used different colors of Stickles on my Project Life. First I used Glam Pink on the Today in the first card on the left. Then I used it several different colors on the third card from the left middle. And finally I used Yellow Stickles on the & in the second card from the left on the bottom.
     As you can see Stickles can used anywhere and it is a fun and different addition to your Project Life pages. So give it a try on your next page! To give you more incentive this month at SOUS we are having a sponsor with a great prize. It is:

SOUS Project Life Challenge - Yellow



Opps! I'm sorry, but I totally forgot to update this post. Yikes! Where was my brain on Monday? Oh well, better late then never. The challenge this week at Stuck On You Sketches for Project Life was to use the color yellow primarily on the whole spread. I wanted to have various shades of yellow too, but this was not required. I started with my date card which is from Scraptastic's TLN kit along with the bottom right. The top left, middle middle, and bottom left are from my cardstock stash. The middle left and right are from We R Memory Keepers Tangerine kit. I had so much fun with this layout, that I am going to have an try it with other colors as well. This is a very easy spread to do as you can use scrap paper as I did. And as an added bonus for doing this week's challenge you will be entered into a drawing for a great prize from:


You have the chance to win any 3 sets from their store! What a great prize. I hope you will enter this challenge and thank you so much for looking. Have a great weekend. :)
