Congratulations ladies! and a warm welcome to our design team! :)

Bente and Karita will share their first cards as SS DT members on Saturday 5th February :)

Can I just say a huge thank you on behalf of all the design team to everyone who entered our DT call,
You are all wonderful cardmakers, it's a shame that we can only choose just 2 of you.

Many thanks!

2 more lovely ladies have joined us!

I'm so happy to announce that we have 2 more new DT members here at Sketch Saturday :)

Please give a warm welcome to:





some of you may notice that Leonie is a past GD of ours way back in June 2009 :)

We are very happy that Cazza & Leonie have joined our little family.
They are both as excited as we are and are itching to get started straight away, their first DT cards will be shown this coming Saturday for our DT week challenge!

Please click on their names to stop by their personal blogs to see just how talented these 2 lovely ladies are.

Thank you xx

Thank you Lena, take care xx

It is with great sadness that I tell you that due to personal reasons and a heavy workload that Lena has decided to leave our design team :(

Lena, as you all know, makes the most stunning cards and gift items, and we will miss seeing her awesome work each week,
Tomorrow's challenge will be her last DT work for us, but I can tell you, it is another beauty!

It may be her last DT card, but we hope that Lena will join in as a challenger now and then when she has the time to do so.

To Lena... a HUGE THANK YOU for your inspiration, commitment, wonderful creations and most of all your friendship.
Much love from all your friends here at SS xx

Fabulous new Design Team Members!!

It is with GREAT PLEASURE that I can announce that Sketch Saturday has 3 new DT members! :)

Please give a warm welcome to:







These ladies as SO TALENTED, and I am very excited to be able to work alongside them.
They will be showcasing their first DT cards with tomorrow's sketch challenge, I have seen their cards and they are fabulous so please stop by tomorrow to see for yourself how lucky we are to have them join our little family!

Please click on their names to stop by their personal blogs and give them some love.

Thank you xx

We say bye bye to Ria

Sad news for sketch saturday :(
Ria has decided to leave our design team, I know it was a difficult decision for her to make and she will be greatly missed from the team.
Ria joined the design team from the beginning, so she has been inspiring you with her beautiful cards using our sketches for 2 years now,
I'm pleased to say that she isn't giving up crafting altogether, so you will still be able to see her fab work on her blog.
Ria, Thank you so much for all you've done for SS these past 2 years.
We'll miss you, and wish you all the very best.

Love, The girls xx

Please welcome our newest Design Team members :)

We are delighted to announce that we have 2 new Design Team members! :)

Jill Sharp (Jilli) has been a regular challenger to this blog, and produces the most adorable and amusing cards, we are very much looking forward to seeing her DT work for us.

Lena Katrine as some of you may have noticed, was our guest designer in March this year. Lena not only makes stunning cards, but she also makes spectacular boxes, bags and gifts as well as layouts, so we are all in for a treat to see how she interprets the sketches into those :)

Jilli & Lena will have their first DT work for us next week! :)
Welcome to our little family ladies! xx

Welcome to...... Emma!

We have a new design team member! :)

We are very happy to announce that Emma Lockley has agreed to join our design team.
Emma was very close to joining our little family at the recent DT call, so rather than sending out another DT call for one member so soon after the last one, we decided it would be better to offer the position to the person who was closest last time...... which was Emma!

Emma has set to work straight away and has created a stunning card for tomorrows challenge, so please pop back tomorrow to see her gorgeous work and to snag the sketch for your own wonderful creation!

Welcome to our little family Emma! xx

Drumroll Please!.....

We would like to thank everyone who entered our DT call, with further thanks to the top 12 who created more superb cards and gave us all headaches deciding who to choose! lol
This has not been an easy decision as you are all wonderful cardmakers in your own right, but we can only choose 5 members at this time.
so without further ado, we would like to welcome the following talented ladies to our design team...

(in alphabetical order)

Louise
Maya
Paula
Simonne
Terry


Congratulations!! and welcome to our little family :)
we hope that you will enjoy working alongside us as much as we are looking forward to working with you :)
