Mum's Wedding Day

Welcome to my blog.  Today we celebrate a milestone it's

10 years ago this week that Sweet Sketch Wednesday started and then went on to Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.  So please hop over to SSW2 and see my posting and join us this month to celebrate 10 years in Blogland and it's also my 9th year with Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 this month.

Here is my celebration card using 

A Day for Daisies Image

Mum's Wedding Day

A Day for Daisies is our sponsor this month as I love Tammy's images.  If you don't know by now you may have read that Tammy is closing down ADFD.  This really saddens me and I wish her all the very best in her new artistic adventure.

Celebrating 10 years we've decided to use the first original sketch used back on 9th June 2009.

From seriously snarky to sugary sweet to sublimely soulful all the way over to the other side of the super sexy spectrum, you're bound to find all that you need and more to create your paper projects.  Jodie works very hard to provide New Releases and Freebies every week!!  If your taste runs to rubber (and you know who you are), you can find Bugaboo Stamps at Totally Stampilicious.  And finally, join the Bugaboo Stamps DT for the weekly Challenges at Catch the Bug.
