Welcome to the Sassy Lil' Sketches Blog Hop!

Sassy Lil' Sketches would like to welcome you to our "Going Green" Blog Hop. We hope you will join us in doing the "Going Green" Challenge! Each of the Sassies has created a "Going Green" project to inspire you along the hop route. They are fabulous and we are excited to showcase their crafty talent!!!

We will be offering a random grand prize for one participant.

Here are the details of "Going Green" Challenge:
Create a project (card, layout, or altered) using the "Going Green" sketch below AND one of the following "Going Green" criteria:

1. "Go Green:" Do a project that is predominantly green in color.
2. "Reduce:" Reduce your stash by creating a project where all the product used are at least one year old (no new stuff).
3. "Reuse:" Do a project with left overs from a previous project.
4. "Recycle:" Do a project with an item that was used for something else first.



My layout uses papers from my monthly kit from SCRaPDANGo. This is the Sugar kit featuring Scribble Scrabble patterned papers and Buzz and Bloom embellishments. In trying to keep "green," I've also inked my white letters with chalk ink and used a piece of cardboard from an album I recently purchased.
