Welcome to Magazine Monday! I hope everyone had a great Mother’s Day weekend. Make sure you check back with us tomorrow as our managing editor (and new mom!), Brandy Jesperson, returns from maternity leave and shares some pictures of her cute little man.
We had so much fun with our first Go-to Sketch Challenge, we launched our second challenge three weeks ago. Based on two sketches from our special issue Go-to Sketches, submissions poured in for all occasions. We picked these four entries as our final winners!
Jennie's Hope Is...Card is a direct interpretation of Kim Kesti's sketch, p. 98.
Laurie also used Kim's sketch to create this fun Congratulations Card.
Alicia made this Thankful Pear Card from Betsy Veldman's sketch, p. 116.
Carol turned Betsy's sketch 90 degrees to create her Spools & Buttons Card.
Congratulations, ladies! Each of you has won either a one-year subscription to Paper Crafts magazine or the special issue of your choice. I’ll be contacting you shortly to discuss your prizes. If you’re interested in seeing all the projects from our Go-to Sketch Challenge #2, please visit our online gallery HERE.

I did my own Go To Sketches challenge this weekend. I challenged myself to use 1 sketch from each Go To Gal for my Mother’s Day cards. I have to say I think they are the best cards I’ve ever made. I’ll try to post a picture in the Paper Crafts Mag Gallery later today.
Thank you so much for chosing my card! Congrats to the other winners, I am honored to be in their company.
