9.15 sketch and a Hop!

Occasionally we find wonderful partnerships in the scrapbooking community and team together to give you an opportunity to check out what might be a new site to you and also give you a chance to play for two prizes with one entry.

Pretty cool, huh?!

This time we are partnering with ScrapFIT, a challenge blog that offers two Workouts (challenges) per month. They are all about keeping you actively scrappin'!


ScrapFIT's prompt for this week is:

Workout #52- F Is For Friendship

Friends are the family members we pick out by hand. Let's dedicate this week's layout to a special friend(s). Show us who you hang out with or call when you need to vent!

And here is this week's Sketchy Thursdays sketch:

So for this week if you use ScrapFIT's "friends" Workout along with Sketchy Thursday's sketch you will have the chance to win multiple prizes. Not only will ScrapFIT have a prize for their Workout over on their site from Paper Issues but we will have our regular weekly sketch prize.


This week's sketch is sponsored by Burlap & Buttercups.

My name is Rachel Wagner, and I'm the owner of Burlap & Buttercups, an online scrapbook kit club that launched in May 2011. This new venture has allowed me to combine two of my favorite things: scrapbooking and shopping for scrapbooking supplies! It's been such a blessing getting to know others in the scrapbooking community and I've been amazed at all the incredible talent out there.



I've been scrapbooking since my oldest child was born and enjoy creating beautiful keepsakes featuring the people and places I love. With a background in writing and an interest in photography, scrapbooking is a natural fit for my hobbies ~ and the abundance of paper, embellishments and tools on the market today make it that much more fun!


In addition to running Burlap & Buttercups, I am married to Rob, my amazing husband of 11 years. I'm also a homeschooling mom to three wonderful children, and consider it a tremendous privilege to train and teach my kids. After being born and raised on Cape Cod, I've been transplanted to the foothills of the majestic Rockies, where I live here in Colorado Springs with my family.
