Please leave a comment with your full name on this post to claim your prize and Sue will be in touch ASAP thereafter.

Congratulations to both Ursula and Pascale

What is the challenge you ask for this fortnight?  Well the challenge is "fantasy" so that can be anything like fairies, pixies, mermaids, unicorns, witches etc.

While I was having a little clear out the other day , I found 3 Sweet Pea Rubber stamps that Lynette had sent for prizes SO I need to give them away . So for this week only you could win THREE stamps instead of one digital one , if you use a Sweet Pea Stamp on your project.

It's time for Team A to show you their cards/creations but some members of Team B have played along as well.  Here is some inspiration for you:
