Week 156–sketch

Good morning dear crafters. We hope you all had a great week last week. I know some of the kiddies have already broken up for “summer” so I hope you are managing to keep them occupied during the poor weather we’re having at the moment. Let’s hope it turns a little more summery before the summer is over this year lol! Before we announce the new challenge we would like to say a big thank you for all your gorgeous entries to Heidi’s “ice-cream/cupcakes” challenge. You had the DT drooling over your amazing creations. Don’t forget to check back later to find out who Heidi has chosen as her top 5 passionista and also to find out the lucky winner of the £10.00 voucher courtesy of Joanna Sheen.

Onto this week’s challenge and it is Donna from Team 2 to set her very first theme and she has given us a fantastic sketch to work with. Here is the sketch:

You can make anything you like and add extra embellishments/alter shapes etc. as long as we can recognise the basic sketch you’re fine! As always you must use your Letraset products i.e. pro, flex, aqua or metallic markers to be eligible for our prize draw.

Our sponsor this week is Letraset and the lucky winner will receive a Promarker Stamping Kit.

Good evening dear crafters. We’re sorry for being late again this week with the post but I’m full up with ‘flu and had to ease myself gently into writing the post this evening lol!
