Happy Tuesday, everyone! You know what that means...it's time for another Tuesday Sketch Challenge, but this week I have a very special treat for you all! As you already know, each month I am be featuring a "Guest Muse" who will be creating a sample for each of the sketches during his/her month. This month's lucky guest is none other than my friend and fellow-Georgian, Silke Ledlow from "My Life"!
Here are a few things you may want to know about Silke from the lady herself:
"Hi everyone!!! My name is Silke Ledlow, and I live in the beautiful state of Georgia close to Savannah. I'm married to my wonderful husband, Jerry, and we celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary this past summer. We have three beautiful daughters, Sarah 11, Rebecca 8, and our little Miriam is almost 5. Last year we added a boxer puppy *Luke* to our family. I started stamping in 2001, and was pretty much hooked immediately. Shortly after I started my own blog *My Life*, and participated in the SCS Challenges. I have been extremely blessed to serve on several different Design Teams over the last 1-1/2 yrs. When I am not stamping, I enjoy reading, shopping, and hanging out with my friends and family. I'm so thrilled that Mercy has asked me to be her *October Muse* since this is my birth-month, and hanging out will all these fabulous ladies makes it just extra special for me !!!Thank you Mercy for asking me, and I'm looking forward playing along with you all!!! Hugs ~S~"
Now for this week's Tuesday Sketch #42 :
You will notice that one Muse is missing this week. Our precious Shannan is in the hospital battling a kidney stone, and is under observation to determine whether surgery is needed or not. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers as she is in horrible pain, and the medicine has done very little to ease her discomfort. We love you and miss you, Shannan!
Now let's see what the other Muses have created for our viewing pleasure today:

- Silke Ledlow (October Guest Muse)
Now it's your turn! Create a card or scrapbook layout using the sketch above, and link your creation below in Mister Linky. Be sure to use the keyword MTSC42 when uploading to a public gallery. I will be checking out each submission, so don't be surprised if I contact you about being a guest designer for an entire month of Tuesdays! I also have another surprise for you all...one lucky participant this week will win the Up, Up And Away stamp set from Verve! We will announce the random winner along with next Tuesday's Sketch Challenge.
Good Luck & Happy Stamping!
