May Sketches at SSW2

  Hello and Welcome to our May challenge

It's Anne here as your hostess for May. I am from Yorkshire in the north of England famous for Yorkshire puddings among other things but a very diverse county with everything from cities to moorland to beaches. We are just coming into spring and next doors clematis is looking wonderful trailing over the gazebo in our garden, I think we have more of it on our side than they have on theirs.


The blue-tits have returned to our nest box as well this year. The picture is of a previous visitor but it reaaly feels like spring is well and truly here when we see them and hear the chirruping coming from the box.

So onto the challenge for this month.

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 April Challenge.  We visited so many lovely cards on your sites and now we'll be choosing our winners. On the 21st of May, we'll be back with another post announcing our winner and the Top 3 cards for the April challenge along with some more inspiration.

So without further ado here are the sketches for May.

and a retro sketch.
I have chosen sketch 128 from 17th January 2018

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 GerJanne with this card using

We'll have another card from GerJanne to share later in the month.

Now it's on to the lineup of cards our lovely design team have made.
