iCopics Second Chance Challenge!

For those of you in The States, how was your gobble day?  Hope you didn't stuff yourselves too much - on pie and on Black Friday shopping!!! 

Well, you know us!  We just can't keep away from you.  Since we didn't do a regular Sketchy Thursday challenge this week, we're just going to have to bring you a shorter Second Chance Challenge instead. 



We're gonna go easy on you, give you a break from all the holiday festivities...A card sketch...



Now, just because I say it's a card sketch doesn't mean you have to make a card. 

I figured tis the season for holiday card making, though, so why not facilitate the process a bit.

Here's what our wonderful Design Team made for your inspiration:











A special thank you to Jennifer Campbell for having been our November Guest Design Team Member!  She did such an awesome job!!  Please click on over to her blog and leave her some love!

This might facilitate the holiday card making process a bit, too...The sponsor of this Second Chance Challenge is iCopic.com

iCopic.com is your destination for great selection, the best prices, and fast delivery for all your Copic needs.  iCopic.com is a Copic Authorized Dealer.

They have GENEROUSLY donated these kits for our lucky winner!!!



AND...if we have more than 60 players, this set will also be thrown into the pot:




I kid you not!  How's that for a great way to start your holiday season?  One lucky crafter will win these awesome goodies all for herself! 

Now, as I mentioned, this is a shortened challenge.  You have until 11:59pm Wednesday 12/2 to hook up your creation to Mr. Linky in the sidebar.  The random winner will be chosen and revealed on Thursday, 12/3. 

** Be sure to give us a direct post to your creation in Mr. Linky! **

Be sure to spread the word!!!  The more players, the more Copics you can win!!!!

Happy Creating!!
