We had another wonderful response to the challenge, so on behalf of the team, a huge thank you to everyone who joined in last week.

Before we get onto this week's challenge, this is just to tell you that we have a brand new feature coming very soon - maybe next week if I can get it organised in time :) So stay tuned for that.

So onto THIS week.
Well it's time for another sketch and this week it is sponsored by....

Liz has given the sketch a really modern twist which I really like - so much so in fact, that I kind of nicked the idea myself for one of my cards this week.

Sadly, we are saying goodbye to Emma and Kathrin who have been our guests for the last 4 weeks. I have loved every one of their cards and on behalf of the team, I would like to thank them both for the wonderful work they have produced for us xxxxx. We hope you have enjoyed your time with us girls :)

We will have another 2 lovelies next week, but you'll have to wait and see who they are - hee hee lol xx

We hope that our work has inspired you to have a go, so let's see what you do with the sketch.

Don't forget that as always, you can twist it, rotate it, re-size the elements and generally do what you like with it, as long as you can still see the sketch in there somewhere.

We can't wait to see what you do and until next Tuesday, have a great and crafty week xxx
