Hello Everyone
Just to let you know, that over the last 3 months we have had a postal strike here in South Africa, specifically Gauteng. So any of the prizes that I have sent, could very well still be sitting here in Johannesburg.
So apologies, if there was any prize supposed to be sent by me, then it has probably not reached you and I am not sure when it will either.
Please accept my sincere apologies for the delays, but there is really not much that I can do at this stage.
Many Thanks
Denise

Sketch Challenge no.36
Hello Everyone
We have an awesome new sketch challenge for you today and we really hope that the sketch will inspire you to play along with us.
Here is the sketch.
We have a super and amazing Special Guest Designer for this challenge - Mariusz Gierszewski
Mariusz is such a talented and creative scrapper. His work is divine! ;-)
My name is Mariusz Gierszewski and I come from Poland. I'm
23 years old and I'm studying management of public administration and
non-governmental organizations. Recently I'm new Prima Marketing Educator. I
live in a small village, Modrzejewo. My passions are politics, scrapbooking,
and card making.
First work I ever made was in August, 2012. My favorite
styles are vintage and shabby. Today I created a card full of layers,
flowers, and other embellishments in my beloved style. The pastels perfectly
complement each. As always I was inspired by nature.
Mariusz created this gorgeous card.
I love the softness of this card and the colouring is just amazing! Such beautiful work! ;-)
Mariusz is a Prima Educator and his blog holds many wonderful creations and much inspiration.
Pop over and take a look. I am sure we would appreciate the visit!!
We have two more Guest Designers, who were winners from previous challenges.
Olga created this gorgeous page.

I love this design and just the little pops of colour! Really a fabulous page! ;-)
The lace and blooms make for a very pretty combination!
Birgit created this stunning page.
.jpg)
I love the cool, fresh colours of this page and the layering is so awesome! The photo also, just makes one want to sail off into the big, wide blue! Gorgeous page! ;-)
Thanks soooo much to Mariusz, Olga and Birgit for your beautiful inspiration!
To really get more of those creative juices flowing, the DT have whipped up some gorgeous projects too.
..using the circles and flowers from the sketch in this card...
Thanks so much to the Design Team. Your projects are stunning! ;-)
