Going Sketchy At MAWTT!!

Hi all & welcome to the start of a new challenge here at Moving Along With The Times. Its Team A's turn this week & my (shell) turn to be your hostess!

Firstly thank you to you all who joined in with Claire's 'Love Is In The Air!' challenge last week, there were some absolutely stunning creations. Please scroll down to see if you were our lucky winner!

Anyhoos on with this weeks challenge, I don't know about you but I always follow a sketch when making a card, I think it makes things easier to layout & the design is already done for you. So this week I decided to design a sketch, I hope you like it!

You can add your sentiment or extra embellishments where you like, as long as we can

see the original sketch!

Our sponsor this week is the fab Meljens Designs, the winner will receive 4 images of their choice from instore! I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Meljen for letting the DT play with some of her fab images x
