It's a special Friday today!
Taylor is celebrating the one year anniversary of the TE Cupcake Challenge! She asked each of the ladies on the Weekly Cupcake Crew to design a sketch for the celebration. I love circle cards, so this is the sketch I designed. I hope you'll all play along with the challenge! I will be selecting one random winner from among all the participants in my challenge to win a $10 gift certificate from Taylored Expressions!
All you have to do is make a card or scracbook lay-out using this sketch and post your creation to Splitcoast using the keyword: TECC52MD. The deadline to be eligible for the prize drawing is Thursday, January 29th. I'll do the drawing on Thursday evening and announce the winner on Friday, January 30th. Check out what some of the past Featured Cupcake Samplers came up with, using my sketch: Lori Craig, Lynn Put, and Frances Byrne.
I made 2 cards using my Spellbinders Nestabilities circle dies.
Stamps: A Year of Sweets 1 and Home Sweet Home (Taylored Expressions)...
Paper: Pacific Point and Baja Breeze (SU!), and Choice Snow White (TE)...
Stamps: Love is Sweet (Taylored Expressions)...
Paper: Valentine Key Ingredient pack (Taylored Expressons) and Choice Buttercream (TE)...
Don't forget to stop by Taylor's blog, the anniversary celebration headquarters, and check out the awesome grand prize for one random winner who participates in ALL 9 sketch challenges! You can find the rest of the 9 sketches on these blogs:Taylor, Ana, Vicki, Stephanie, Sherrie, Jami, Donna, and Jackie.
We hope you'll join us in celebrating this yummy occasion!
The Featured Cupcake Sampler this week is Christine Okken at ChristineCreations. Make sure you stop by and check out what she came up with. :o)
Thanks for looking!

Your card is so darn cute! I was finally able to get a card done with your sketch. It's so different than any of the others, I knew I wanted to play even after the contest ended.
