JULY CHALLENGE

Good morning and welcome back to Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2!  We're happy to have you join us for July- yes, July already. We are over halfway through the year.

Hi, it's Kathie here this month, from New Zealand.  At this time of year in the Southern Hemisphere, it's winter, and I woke up to 2 Degrees Celsius.  For me, that's cold. I have a friend living in the South Island of New Zealand in Queenstown, a stunning part of our country where parts of The Lord of the Rings were filmed.  She woke to 0 this morning, to a beautiful day, but won't get any warmer than 6 Celsius.

 

I would like to thank everyone who had the time to answer Anne's questions about our Challenge Blog last month.  We'll be sitting down and having a team talk via Messenger about what and if we make any changes to our challenge.  

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our June sketches.  Be sure to join us again on the 15th July to see who our winner is.

 So, onto our July sketches. Remember, you can enter up to 3 projects per month, and luckily, we have 2 fab new sketches and a retro sketch to choose from.

July Sketches:

And here is our fun retro sketch #165 from 28th December 2019.  Please follow the link for inspiration from our wonderful design team back then.

***A reminder that one of our rules is to include the sketch that you used on your entry.  This helps you be eligible as the winner or in the Top 3 or 5, and it also promotes Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 to other crafters who read your blog, and if you enter other Challenges, others see your entry and might love the sketch you've used and wonder where you got your idea from.  Thank you for helping us***
