10th Anniversary from 2010 to Present

  Good morning and welcome to my blog.  Well 10 years ago in June 2010 I became a Design Team member for

Sweet Sketch Wednesday where I worked with an amazing family and friends on the team.  Sweet Sketch Wednesday ran from 9th June 2009- 25 December 2013 for 4 and a half years it was a weekly Challenge in those days.  I did enter challenges before being accepted onto the team.

Here is my 1st DT card in June 2010 using a Bugaboo Image

Sketch #56

Then in 2014 Sweet Sketch Wednesday was renamed to 

Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 with someone new at the helm.

Cornflowers

Good morning everyone.  Well I know that winter is just around the corner, it's currently autumn here in New Zealand and it's usually quite mild but this morning I woke up to 

5 celsius, it's very fresh this morning but it is a beautiful sunny day, here on day 43 in lockdown. 

This month over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2

our sponsor is Sheepski Designs.

I find it so hard to choose an image of Andrea's as I want them all to play with.

Some other shots of my card.  I love the colours and the design paper was very subtle I wanted the image to take the focal point of my card.  I'm very happy with my card and how it turned out.
