April Sketch Competition

Soon as it is so close to April, and it's the weekend we have decided to launch our April Sketch Competition details tonight. This months sketch was based upon another awesome layout by Renae... So here is the sketch.....

And here is Renae's sample....

The sketch competition runs for the entire month of April, giving you lots of time to get your entries in. You can interpret the sketch anyway you like, you can flip it, turn it etc... as long as the sketch is still recognisable. You can complete the sketch in whatever size you like to work in, (8.5x11 or 12x12) or even as a card sketch. This month the prize will be a $20 voucher to spend in our Scraploot online store.

To enter this months challenge, email your layout to info@scraploot.com.au or upload it to our Facebook page... here.

Our winners are chosen at random, so get scrappin, you've got to be in it to win it.

All entries must be recieved by 11:59pm, Monday 30th April 2012.

Till next time,
