Gathering Spring

Good morning and welcome to my blog.  Today is Wednesday the middle of the week and time to look at our new sketch over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.

Next week I'll be away in very sunny, tropic Cairn Queensland Australia to spend sometime with my sister, so next weeks posting will be scheduled so hopefully scheduler will work in my favour.

Congratulations to last weeks winner and to our Top 3 cards great work everyone.

This week we have another wonderful sketch by Sally, when I first saw the sketch I thought it wouldn't show off our design papers but I was so wrong it's worked perfectly and it isn't hard so please we would love to see your creations.

Also we're using one of my very favourite sponsors this week.
