Week #31 -27th December - Your Choice!

Hello Everyone......... Surprise!!
Didn't expect to see a new post this week did you?

I do hope that you are all well & happy, and have everything that you hoped for.

Did Santa, leave you some craft stash in your stocking? ;)

Just incase there are some of you who are itching to try out your new craft goodies, then this week is for you ;)
This week is your choice!
I know some of you look forward to seeing a new sketch here each week, and that you don't like to miss a sketch, so I decided to let you choose the sketch that you liked the most from the last 30 weeks. That way, you won't miss a sketch because there isn't a new one this week to miss!

It will be interesting to see if there's a sketch which is the most popular with you all, or if there will be a mixed bag of your favourites.
Don't forget to tell me what sketch you used! ;)

Only new work though please, because one of you taking part this week will receive this DCWV 'Thank You' Card Kit from me.
which could come in handy for letting people know how much you appreciated the gift that they gave you this year eh? This kit can make 20 cards!





There are no DT examples this week, the girls are taking a week off, and they soooo deserve it!




So it's wave goodbye to 2008....

On a personal note, I'd like to thank my friends, the totally brilliant design team for their continued support and outstanding work that they give each week, you are all amazing xx

From the team as a whole, we'd like to thank each of the sponsors and of course we'd like to thank you, the challengers, for making Sketch Saturday all worthwhile.

On behalf of the whole of the design team, HAPPY NEW YEAR!

If you are going out partying on Wednesday night, I hope you all have a fantastic time, but please above all...... stay safe!

We look forward to your continued support in 2009!


Jo xx




P.S. Remember, next week (#32) is DT week! and there's a fantastic sketch to start the new year :)
