Spotlight and Weekly Winner

Good morning Sweet Stampers!  It's another glorious Spring day, although not quite as much warmth as some of you may be enjoying.  Things are starting to emerge in the garden (mostly weeds in my case) and so it seems very appropriate to be announcing the winners from our Green challenge!

In the Spotlight this week we have a fabulous interpretation of the challenge theme:

Well done, #60 Carole of Brum!  Your colouring on this wonderful card is just fantastic!  Please take our Spotlight blinkie (go to the "Badges" tab above) for your blog!

Our weekly winner this week will receive goodies from our lovely sponsor The Emerald Fairie Garden.  And lucky winner is...

#48 Tracy B!  Congratulations!

We have another prize to give away today as we're having to do a redraw for the $10 Stamp Fairy voucher, which was unclaimed.

Congratulations go to #21 Shirley! Tracy and Shirley, if you contact Abi and Fi via the email link in the sidebar they will arrange for you to receive your prizes.

Well this week's challenge is everybody's favourite - Anything Goes!  You can make anything you like, in any colour, on any theme, but please remember, you must stamp if you want to be eligible for a prize!

Enjoy the sunshine and Happy Stampin'!

Use lots of Green!

Happy Saturday Stampers!  So glad to have you coming to join us in another weekly challenge!  I'm sure many of you know that today (Saturday 17th) is St Patricks Day & to mark the occasion we want to to see GREEN on your projects, as much as you can muster!  No shamrocks or leprechauns needed lol!!

We've got some wonderful cards to inspire you & wonderful sponsors as always, first up Joanna Sheen  with a £10 voucher for one lucky winner drawn at the end of the month from all the entries.  If you're using a spring theme, you can enter it over at Joanna's challenge too.



This week we're sponsored by The Emerald Fairie Garden.  You'll see that they were kind enough to give the team some images to work with & boy did we have fun with them, so cute!  Thank very much & if you're inspired to make an easel card, link it up at their challenge.




Now for some wonderful inspirations:

Good morning Sweet Stampers and what a lovely morning it is in this part of the world!  It looks like Spring has finally arrived - at last! 

Well, this week over at Sweet Stampin' Towers we learned that you certainly like your layers!  What a fabulous collection of entries we had and it was lovely to see that so many of you liked Janneke's fabulous sketch.  My Spotlight choice this week is a beautiful interpretation of the layers/sketch theme:

We're going Green for this week's challenge! Yes, in honour of St. Patrick's Day we'd like to see the colour green on your creations.  Remember, you can make anything you like - a card, tag, altered item, scrapbook page etc. - but you must use a stamp (rubber or digi)  in order to be eligible for a prize.  And with the Emerald Fairy Garden as our weekly sponsor and Joanna Sheen offering a monthly prize, you have at least 2 very good reasons to join in the fun!

Have a fabulous week everyone and Happy Stampin'!

Let's see those Layers...

Good morning sweet stampers and what horrible weather we have been having....Wednesday here in Scotland we had all four seasons in the one day would you believe and today it's very wet and blustery so a day for indoors...so get that mojo out and join in with our challenge this week. Our challenge this week if you've not guessed already it "lots of layers" and remember to include something on your project that has been stamped. We thought we would make it easy for you to join in with our challenge as layers are not everybodys thing so the lovely Janneke created this sketch specially to fit in with the challenge this week...it's a fab sketch. Now you don't have to use the sketch but if you feel it will help with your layers then feel free to use it.




Our sponsor this week is very special because if it wasn't for her then Sweet Stampin' wouldn't be here today. Emma was the founder of Sweet Stampin' back in 2009 but has since hung up her boots to concentrate on her business Sew Sweet....you have to check out her website as she the most wonderful collection of buttons, ribbon, twine etc...

Emma is kindly giving one lucky winner a £10 voucher for her store.

We also have The Stamp Fairy sponsoring us as an added bonus this week...

Spotlight and Weekly Winner

Good morning Sweet Stampers! Hope you are all enjoying a relaxing weekend - hopefully with a bit of crafting time built in!

We had a fabulous array of entries for our Bugs challenge last week, so much so in fact that I had to ask the Sweeties for some help in picking our Spotlight winner!  Between us we decided to go for something we felt was a little different...

Congratulations to #15 Ria!  Please grab our Spotlight blinkie which you'll find under the tab at the top of the page.

I would also like to give a special mention this week to a very talented and very young lady:

Raen is just three and a half years old and she made this lovely card with a little help from her mum!  Well done, sweetheart!

Now we need to find out who has won our fabulous prize donated by Emma of Crafty Emma's Store.

Mr Random chose

Congratulations #13 Kietha!

Unfortunately our winner of the February monthly prize - a £10 voucher from Joanna Sheen - hasn't come forward, so we have had to have a redraw.  The lucky winner is

#24 Pepi Urdova!

Ladies, please contact Abi and Fi via the link in the sidebar in order to claim your prizes.

This week we are looking for Lots of Layers.  Our very talented Sweetie Janneke has designed the most gorgeous sketch for you to follow if you wish - I think I'm going to use this one again and again! 

Have a fabulous week everyone and Happy Stampin'!
