Nature, Bugs & Bees

I don't know about you but I've got some beautiful clumps of snowdrops in my garden, I'm waking to the sounds of birdsong & I saw my first bee of the year the other day!  So in honour of the approaching Spring we want to see

Something Nature related with some Bugs, Bees or Ladybirds on your creation.

We have our regular marvellous monthly sponsor

 

who are offering a super duper £10 voucher to be spent in the online shop & this week we have a superb paper pack from Crafty Emma too!!  Delicious!
           
Crafty Emma's Store             

Many thanks to Denise for guest designing during February & joining us for March, we have Lisa.

Now for your weekly dose of inspiration from the fabulousness that is Team Abi:

So head back to nature & find some wee beasties to go on your card!  Don't forget to STAMP something too.

Spotlight, Weekly and Monthly Winners!

Good morning Sweet Stampers!  And what a lovely morning it is as I'm typing this! The sun is trying to break through the clouds, the daffodils are starting to open up and the birds are singing!  Unfortunately this means that my garden is also full of rabbits who are happily eating any green shoots that are popping up! Well, you can't win 'em all, I suppose.

We had a fabulous response to our Masculine challenge last week - thank you so much for your amazing entries.  In the Spotlight this week we have this fabulous creation:



Well done #59 Carolyn!  I love the way this card has been put together, from the fabulous colouring to the perfect embellies!   Please help yourself to our blinkie, Carolyn - you'll find it under the tab at the top of the page.

Next up, our randomly chosen weekly winner.  Our sponsor for this challenge is the fabby Quixotic Paperie, who have kindly donated a £10 voucher.  A little shopping spree, then is going to...


#64 Liz! Congratulations!

And finally, as it's March already (didn't we only just have Christmas?!), it's time to announce the winner of our monthly prize, sponsored by the gorgeousness that is Joanna Sheen.  Joanna is giving away a £10 voucher for her online shop to...


 ... #48 Rebekah (3 in a row challenge)!  If you would both like to contact Abi and Fi using the email link in the sidebar, they will let you know how to claim your vouchers! Happy shopping!

Just time to remind you that our new challenge has started and it's a cracker (as the late Frank Carson used to say).  We want to see your take on Nature: Bugs, Bees & Ladybirds - remember, if you want to be entered in the prize draws, you have to STAMP!

Have a fabby week Sweet Stampers! Happy Stampin'!
