Tuesday Morning Sketches #410

Good Morning TMS friends!  We're so happy that you're here.  Happy 4th of July to all - I hope you're enjoying your family, friends, good food and stunning fireworks displays.  Maybe that was over the weekend.

Although this is fun day of celebration for America, it's a personal celebration for Tuesday Morning Sketches.  We're 8 years old!  It doesn't seem all that long that ago and it floors me that we're almost 400 sketches.  I say almost because we always revisit previous year's sketches.  It's been a lot of fun and I hope TMS is around for more years to come.

We have a special month planned - yes, we are celebrating all month long.  We'll feature new sketches each week and there will be a theme, too.  There will be a prize weekly and the link tool will remain open until the end of the month leading to the last week.  But one thing to note, even though the link will remain open, at precisely 8pm ET I will do the random draw and keep note of the numbers.  So no sneaking in those late entries.  This means you have up to 4 chances to win the prize at the end of the month.  It's a pretty big prize so you'll want to get in on that.  It's also a surprise so I won't say anymore on that.

This week's prize... (note C.C. Designs is not sponsoring)



Here's the Sketch....



And the theme is....

Use a die cut

Now, before we go looking through all the great cards our design team created, please give a warm welcome to our newest DT member, Carol!  She's been a faithful TMS player for a long time and we've long admired her work.  I am thrilled that she is joining us!

Alright that was a lot to read and some great cards to look at it!  Now it's your turn to let all your creativity out.  Have fun with this gorgeous sketch by Debbie, break out those dies and have some fun!

  8. In reading the rules I notice that you have a sketch every week; but this particular sketch appears to be valid for a full month? Is this an accurate link close date due to the summer? Please let me know. Thanks.
