Sweet Sketch Wednesday Sketch #139

Elisabeth Bell

Good morning everyone.  Well summer is really here now and the boys are back at school.  It's been very warm here in the last week or two.  The problem is we don't get the dry heat we get very high humidity which I think is worse. 

 Today is Wednesday and that means it's the 1st of February already and it's Sweet Sketch Wednesday.  Congratulations to last weeks winner and our top 3.  Our entries were down on previous weeks which is a little to be expected with our new rules . Don't forget them I'll put them on the bottom of this posting.

Arlana has another lovely sketch for you this week and it's just so good because it really shows off all of our wonderful design papers.

Good morning it's Wednesday 25th January my boys have had 6 weeks summer vacation and this time next week they'll be back at school.  Our start to our summer here in New Zealand wasn't the best when it came to the weather and the amount of wind and rain we had and now the boys are due back to school we're having wonderful hot sunny days and they'll be scorching  in their school uniforms in shirts and ties.


So it's Wednesday and that means it's another wonderful 
Sweet Sketch Wednesday

Good morning today is Wednesday and that means it's another wonderful Wednesday and it's Sweet Sketch Wednesday.
