Week #200 - 24th March - Sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps

Good Morning sketch fans!

It's a special week this week at Sketchy Towers, for 2 reasons.

Firstly, we have reached week 200, WOW!

and some of you are still joining in after all this time aren't you?,

A HUGE THANK YOU, you know who you are! xx ;)

Secondly, we are taking part in a DT swap with our sponsors of this weeks challenge, Bugaboo Stamps. 

More about the swap after this message from Bugaboo...

"Everything That You Ever Wanted to Know About Bugaboo Stamps:

As if raising five children in the frozen land of the North was not enough of a challenge, Jodie Mackrell decided to dip her cold little Canadian toes into the world of papercrafting by opening an online store full of her illustrations. That was two years ago. Today Bugaboo Stamps is one of the leading companies in digital images, and we're still growing!  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 Stampalicious. And finally, join the Bugaboo Stamps DT  for weekly challenges at Catch the Bug."

If you are our challenge winner this week, you'll get to choose 7 free digis to add to your Bugaboo collection! Thank you Jodie and everyone at Bugaboo xx

About the DT swap...
