Sketch #57

Hi everyone hope that you are all OK and having a nice week :)

Hugest of thanks to everybody who joined in last week –  it must have had an effect as we in the UK have had a bit of a mini heatwave – verrry unusual for us !!

As always there were some fantastic entries and I hope that  the sun is still shining for you today:)

So who was our winner?

So that’s what we did and now it’s over to you, and if you get a sec, don’t forget if you get a sec to check out our individual blogs and see what else we have been up to.

As always, could we ask a huge favour peeps please.

Could you help to make our job at leaving comments easier by turning off comment verification and enabling comment moderation instead please pretty please xxxx. It’s ever so easy to do – see our sidebar – and you won’t get spam comments as you can easily reject the comments that you don't want to appear. And also, can we remind you nicely that’s it’s fine to combine challenges but please, no back linking. We hope you understand that it’s only fair to those who make a new card xxx

And also, can I just give you a nice gentle reminder to ask if you could make sure that you link your card and not your blog when using good old Mr Linky please my lovelies. It makes life so much easier for our DT if they don’t have to go searching for your cards.

Thanks ever so muchly – we really do appreciate

Hugs from all of us to all of you xxx

Here Comes The Sun!!

Hi everyone hope that you are all OK and having a nice week :)

Hugest of thanks to everybody who joined in last week –  there were some fantastic entries and I hope that all the dads and lads enjoyed their day xxx 

So who was our winner?

Well done chick and if you e-mail me I’ll pass your details onto Katharina and hugest of thanks to Whiff of Joy  for their wonderful sponsorship xxx

And check out Jan’s card peeps …..

… I LOVE the colours and that image :)

Something else we all loved this week was this fab card here …..

It was made by Matthew who is 9 and he made it for his dad to match the prezzie he got for him  …

You can read all about it here – we think he did a great job and bet his Dad loved it.

So onto this week and when I set this challenge back at the beginning of the year, I just knew that was being ever so optimistic as our theme this week is

Here Comes the Sun

It was here yesterday but now it’s gone again, so for most of the UK girlies we will really have to use our imagination as we don't see the sun that often lol!!

So quite simply you just need to create a card that reminds you of summer or has a sunny summery feel.

We are sponsored today by the fabulous Mary and our very own Andrea  - yes it’s The Ribbon Girl

And our winner gets to choose …..

Ribbon Kits

Thank you so much Mary & Andrea  xxx
