Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 February 2025

Hello and welcome back dear crafty friends,

 I'm Doris - known as Kleido - and this month I'm your hostess.

Every month we have 2 amazing sketches for you, designed by Kathie, which you can also rotate and/or flip - but we should still be able to recognize them.

If you still need more inspiration we have a sketch from our archives too.

We hope we can inspire you a little with our work and look forward to your participation.

Sketch #296

Sketch #297

Our guest designer this month is Heather from Wire Wrapture. Here is the card she created using Sketch #296


We will share Heather's card using sketch 297 in our winner's post on the 19th.

And these fantastic inspirations were created by our design team.

 Hello and Welcome to our first challenge of 2025

We have two new sketches for you this month and a retro sketch.

You can enter up to three projects per month so why not try out all three of our sketches we would love to see your entries.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to enter our December Challenge during what for many is a very busy time.  We visited so many lovely cards on your sites and now we'll be choosing our winners. On the 15th of January, we'll be back with another post announcing our winner and the Top 3 cards for the November challenge along with some more inspiration.

So without further ado here are the sketches for January.

To start 2025 I have chosen sketch 25





Remember these sketches can be flipped and or turned it's entirely up to you as long as we can see the original sketch in your card. 

Now onto some inspiration.
First up is our Guest Designer Julie with this card using sketch #294
