Well ladies as we have hinted before, we have a good number of changes
coming to our blog! Some of which are very exciting not
to mention adding some amazing new talent to our Design Team!
We hope that these changes will be as inspiring to you all as
they have already been to us!

Some of the changes are a bit sad, we've decided to end our

May 10 Sketch Layout Challenge


Welcome to another challenge here at Stuck on U Sketches!
We'd like to extend our warm wishes for a lovely
Mother's Day this coming weekend!
Such a wonderful and creative time as fellow
crafters get their hobby mojo flowing to show
the woman in our lives how much they mean to us with
something homemade! 
We hope that ALL you ladies out there have 
a great weekend! 

Diagonals are a huge trend right now and that is what
inspired our newest sketch! This basic sketch 
certainly comes alive with the amazing interpretations
from our always uber talented team!

We hope you like!

Die Cut Challenge ~ The Word Mom or Mother ..

Happy Friday, bloggers! We are back today with another great Die Cut Challenges .. so get those Die Cutters humming.

Believe it or not "Mother's Day" will be here in the blink of an eye, so what better way to get prepared than to make a project commemorating Motherhood.  Now, not just any Mother's Day project will do. We are asking that you use the Die Cut words Mom or Mother. Or if you do not have access to a font, then a Die Cut silhouette of a woman or mom will do. Just be sure that you a Die Cut machine or a Die Cutting die. As always, you will have 2 weeks to complete and upload your project!

Now, are you ready for some inspiration? I know that we are! So here is what our fabulous Die Cut team has created for this challenge:
