...MTSC66 & TSG Spring Fever Blog Hop Challenge

Happy Tuesday, everyone! Today's post is going to be another double-duty one, so I apologize for the length ahead of time! LOL! Not only is this a sketch challenge post, but it is also a There She Goes preview post! So if you've come here from Lisa Henke's blog, then you're in the right place! Now let's get started!

First up, this week's Tuesday Sketch #66:
Dawn Easton's Sample: My Sample:
I don’t know about you guys but I definitely have Spring Fever! There is just something about Spring that is refreshing and invigorating and I love watching as nature comes alive again after a long winter. It makes my heart happy :) The first stamp set that the Trendsetters will be giving you sneak peeks of is named what else..."Spring Fever"! If you liked the mini set Treemendous, then you are going to love this delightful silhouette set that includes a large beautiful tree.

Would you like a chance to win the Spring Fever stamp set? Here’s what you need to do- go to each of the Trendsetter’s Blogs and leave a comment on their Spring Fever Blog Hop Challenge post. After you have finished checking out the eye candy and have left some love, return to the TSG Blog and add your name to the Mr. Linky at the bottom of the Blog Hop Challenge post. A winner will be chosen randomly using a random number generator to receive their very own Spring Fever stamp set! The winner will be announced Saturday (Mar. 27) during the Release Party Chat. Your next stop on the hop will be Pam Varnell!

Now let's see what the Muses have created for you to peruse today:

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 MTSC66 when uploading to a public gallery!

Happy Stamping!
