“Devil is in the Details” - ribbons

August 15th already … I have been amazed by the fabulous layouts that have been created for the “In touch with his…” Challenge …remember you still have until the end of the month to complete that challenge… just make sure you link that layout on the “In touch with his…” Challenge post.
Now for the “Devils is in the Details” challenge (which is also due at the end of the month)…
Every month we will be bringing you a sketch and detail challenge…the sketch component is optional however the detail (or element) component is not…have fun

Here is what our talented team did with the challenge criteria :)annemarie Anthea ebony Kim OFP Wendy Tracy from my2angels

Once you have created your “Devil is in the Details” layout for August...upload it to your personal blog or an online gallery and then using the “linky” tool below please follow the prompts and create your thumbnail link back to your layout here.

Please when you leave your name also pop your country…ie. Susan Longman – AUS

Then we will pop over to your blog, have a looksee and leave some love… to be in the running for the prize you are required to have your layouts linked by the end of the month. (All prizes are strictly for Australian residents only due to shipping…if we are able to secure international sponsorship I will post in the forthcoming challenges.)

emailheader (2)

Thank you to Susan for inviting Anna’s Craft Cupboard to sponsor the Scrap The Boys Blog for July and August.   Anna’s Craft Cupboard began as a small online store approximately four years ago and is now one of the leading online Australian Scrapbook stores.   I  strive to bring my customers new product as quickly as possibly mostly sourcing direct from the US.

Located in Western Australia, Anna’s online store stocks a wide variety of scrapbooking manufacturers to suit all tastes and budgets. The store has an up to date blog with step by step projects featured weekly, created by the talented design team. The store also offers inspiration to scrapbookers with monthly product showcases designed by her team using both brand new and older lines. The gallery has a Monthly Sketch challenge with a generous prize of $40 gift voucher and free postage.

There are also 3 random draws for customer order per month with generous prizes. New customers receive 10% off their first order. Anna’s Craft Cupboard is now also on Facebook and twitter to keep customers up to date with the latest information about the store so connect with Anna’s Craft Cupboard online here too.
