Well, just 4 more days and then it will be another year before next Halloween.  Lynne, owner and illustrator of STAMP-N-DOODLE loves Halloween, so let's all wish Lynne a VERY HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Since this NEW CHALLENGE won't be finished until next Thurs., Nov. 4, we are moving on to a new theme.  I think you will all LOVE the image the DT used this week.  Make sure you head over to both the STAMP-N-DOODLE SHOP & THE BOUTIQUE (links at top of this blog) and check out some of the NEW IMAGES available - they are AWESOME!!

Also, STAMP-N-DOODLE IMAGES are not required to participate in our challenges, but we'd sure LOVE to see one, and if you use them, you will get 2 entries for the week instead of 1 for purposes of our random.org drawing.  The challenge is open until noon on Thurs., Nov. 4, so please get your creations added using our Inlinkz tool by then.  Have fun, can't wait to see what you create.

We have a sketch for you to work with this week.  Please remember to include all the elements of the sketch, but feel free to rotate, resize, etc.
