Sketchie Free For All

Hi peeps and hope you are all OK and that you are having a nice week so far

Thank you to everybody who joined in last week -  your HOT cards were fabulous. And thank you as well to everyone who expressed an interest in joining our GDT. We will be in touch with whoever Mr Random Thing chooses very soon :)

So who was our lucky winner then ?

Well this week it's  you Norma )

Well done to you and if you e-mail me, I’ll pass your details on to Mary & Andrea  and hugest of thanks to The Ribbon Girl for sponsoring us xxx

And check out what Norma did peeps …..

Oh my this is absolutely fabulous and what better on a hot day than some nice cool ice cream (mind you, I'd eat it even if it was minus 20 cos I LOVE the stuff!!)

So onto this week and as it’s the last one of the month, we have a little sketchie for you and ….

and here it is – sketch #80.

But as we are doing now,  if you would prefer to use another sketch, then please feel free to use any Papertake Weekly sketch you fancy because we have another ...

Sketchie Free For All

All you have to do is to use any PTW sketch (it MUST be one of ours please) and just add the number of the sketch you’ve chosen when you post the link back to us :) To make life a bit easier, we now have a sketches page at the top here so there are a fair old few to choose from. Hopefully this will save you having to go back through the archives to find one that you like :)

As always, please feel free to resize, flip and rotate the elements - as long as you can still see the sketch, it’s completely fine so fill yer boots!!!

And of course, as it’s the last challenge of the month, we are sponsored by those fabulous people across the pond.

Yes it’s the one and only

And check this out - we've all gone for #80 this week.
That's the first time this has happened since we did sketchie free for all :)

So that’s what we did and now it’s over to you, and if you get a sec, don’t forget 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.

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 could we ask that you restrict your number of entries please to no more than 5

Thanks ever so muchly – we really do appreciate it xxx

Finally,  just to let you know that sometimes it is not possible for the Design Team to leave a comments on every entry, with these Blogger issues that some of us are having at the mo – grrrrrr what a nightmare. But please be assured that we do stop by and we are doing our best and every single eligible entry goes into the draw for our prizes even if we don’t manage to leave you a comment.

Thanks for bearing with us and huggiest of hugs to all xxx
