Sketch Free For All Time Again :)

Hi peeps and hope you are all OK and having a nice week so far.

Hugest of thanks to everybody who joined in last week -   your ‘bow’ cards were so gorgeous :)

So who was our winner then ?

Woohooo  Lindathis week it’s you chick :)

Well done to you and if you e-mail me, I’ll pass your details on to Mary & Andrea over at The Ribbon Girl  and hugest of thanks to them for sponsoring us xxx

And check out what Linda  did peeps …..

What beautiful colours, and I’m sure that Jean will love it  :)

So onto this week and as it’s the last one of the month, we have a little sketchie for you.

and here it is – sketch #75.

But as we are doing now,  if you would prefer to use another sketch, then please feel free to use any Papertake Weekly sketch you fancy because we have another

Sketchie Free For All

All you have to do is to use any PTW sketch (it has to be one of ours please) and just add the number of the sketch you’ve chosen when you post the link back to us :) To make life a bit easier, we now have a sketches page at the top here so there are a fair old few to choose from. Hopefully this will save you having to go back through the archives to find one that you like :)

As always, please feel free to resize, flip and rotate the elements - as long as you can still see the sketch, it’s completely fine so fill yer boots!!!

And of course, as it’s the last challenge of the month, we are sponsored by those fabulous people across the pond.

Yes it’s the one and only

Before we get to the cards, we have  to say goodbye to our wonderful GDT who have been with us for the last 2 months. Thank you for sharing your lovely work with us – it’s been a pleasure having you as part of our team and we hope that you enjoyed your stay.

And finally, you will probably notice that we are using Inlinkz now instead of old Linky. It’s a trial thing for the mo but if it works out better then we will stick with it.

So without further ado, lets see what our fabulous team have done -

 

Vicky (GDT)

Judy Corner (GDT)

 

 

Jill 

 

 

Mary 

 

 

Lols

 

 

Andrea 

Natalie

Sheila

 

 

Lisa 

 

 

Jane

 

 

Sharon

 

 

Dozy Dawny P will be here as soon as the camera has recharged – doh!!!!

So that’s what we did and now it’s over to you, and if you get a sec, don’t forget to check out our individual blogs and see what else we have been up to.

As always, could we ask a huge favour peeps please.

Could you help to make our job at leaving comments easier by turning off comment verification and enabling comment moderation instead please pretty please xxxx. It’s ever so easy to do – see our sidebar – and you won’t get spam comments as you can easily reject the comments that you don't want to appear.

Can we remind you nicely that’s it’s fine to combine challenges but please, no back linking. We hope you understand that it’s only fair to those who make a new card xxx

And also, can I just give you another  nice gentle reminder to ask if you could make sure that you link your card and not your blog when using good old Mr Linky please my lovelies. It makes life so much easier for our DT if they don’t have to go searching for your cards.

Thanks ever so muchly – we really do appreciate it xxx

Finally,  just to let you know that sometimes it is not possible for the Design Team to leave a comments on every entry, with these Blogger issues that some of us are having at the mo – grrrrrr what a nightmare. But please be assured that we do stop by and we are doing our best and every single eligible entry goes into the draw for our prizes even if we don’t manage to leave you a comment.

Thanks for bearing with us and huggiest of hugs to all
