WINNER AND TOP 3 OR TOP 5

Hello followers, please check our Tab at the top of this blog to see if you're a winner or one of our top creations as we are finding that winners aren't claiming the prizes that they have earned. 


March Sketches here at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2

Hello and welcome to Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 for March 2023.   To our followers welcome back and anyone new please come and become a follower of our very friendly monthly challenges.  Each month we have two new sketches for you to choose from or you could create with both sketches which would be fantastic.

 I'm Kelly from snowy Southern Alberta and I'm your hostess this month.  We are gradually warming up and hope that the bitter cold is over for this winter.

 We have two new sketches every month for you to play with.  Of course, you can also rotate and/or flip the sketch - but we should still be able to recognize the sketch and if extra embellishments are your thing please bling up your cards it's entirely up to you.

FEBRUARY HERE AT SWEET SKETCH WEDNESDAY 2 2023

Hello and welcome to Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 for February 2023.   To our followers welcome back and anyone new please come and become a follower of our very friendly monthly challenges.  Each month we have two new sketches for you to choose from or you could create with both sketches which would be fantastic.

 I'm Kathie from New Zealand and I'm your hostess this month.  Down here in the southern hemisphere, it's summer and February is usually one of our hottest months so far it has been a very wet summer.

This challenge will run until the 10th of January to give you all a little extra time to create over the festive period.

This month we say farewell to our DT member Olga and would like to take this opportunity to thank Olga for all the inspiration and lovely comments she has given over the last couple of years.

We also have a guest designer this month, Marie who won one of our challenges earlier in the year, we always offer our winner a guest designer spot and Marie chose to design with us in December. She chose to use sketch 243 for both of her cards.
