New Scrappy Challenge!

brought to you by Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine!

Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine has a  NEW monthly sketch challenge! Design a layout inspired by their sketch and email it to sketchy@canadianscrapbooker.ca  They will post your layout in their website gallery  for all their readers to enjoy!


Want a chance to be published? OF COURSE YOU DO! They will be looking for one or two or three layouts to be published in an upcoming issue of Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine. In order to qualify to be published you have to use ONE Canadian manufacturer on your layout! That’s right! Doesn’t matter if you are from Canada, England, China or Africa – if you use one Canadian manufacturer on your design, you could be the next person published in an upcoming issue!


If you decide to not use a Canadian Manufacturer on your design – no problemo! They will still post your layout for all their readers to see in their Sketchy Gallery! Sounds cool, eh?


At the beginning of each new month a new Sketch will be posted! You have until the end of the each month to submit your designs!


Let’s get Sketchy!
