Spring is in the air

Hiya everyone,

We had a phenomenal amount of entries last month to our Love is in the air challenge. Thanks so much to each and every one of you who took part. Also a big thanks to Lindsay who was our Guest designer.
Unfortunately, there can be only one winner and this month drawn by random.org is:-


Congratulations Izzwizz!!! - If you contact me on cheeky_monkey_24@hotmail.com I will sort out your prize!!!

Our Guest Designer as picked by out DT Jane is Lyndsey - If you contact me on the above e-mail I will send you out the GDT blinkie and the challenge info.


In no particular order the top 3 favourites also picked by Jane are:-

Sharon
Ellie
Congratulations to you all!!! Feel free to snatch our "I made the top 3 blinkie" off our sidebar!


Well, it's the 1st March and I have a definate spring in my step! You just can't beat the lighter evenings and the little green shoots popping up all over the place!

This goes hand in hand with our new challenge which is:-

Spring/Easter

We want to see all of your springy creations! I'm thinking pastels/ginghams/daffodils/easter eggs/bunnies - you get the idea! They can be any sentiment at all as long as they have a springy feel to them!

The prize up for grabs to the random winner is a £30 gift voucher to spend in the on-line shop.
Suzi will also be picking one of the entries to join us as a guest designer for one of our forthcoming challenges as well as their favourite top 3!

Our DT has come up trumps this month with some great designs as well as some more fab tutorials for you. Please click on the DT members name to go to their blog for more info on their cards. If it says that there is a tutorial, then please click on the piccie to be taken to that tutorial.

Please add your name to the Linky - Make sure you link your specific blog post to the Linky and not your whole blog as it can take a while to find your entry if you blog a lot!

Thanks for looking!
