Flowers

Hello and welcome to another challenge here at Sweet Pea Stampers. Thanks so much for all the gorgeous entries into our Lace and Pearls challenge they were gorgeous. Please look out for the prize draw of the gorgeous Sweet Pea stamps later in the week!

This week we have a new theme of "Flowers". I think this is a real favourite of everyone's. We want to see flowers somewhere on your project, flowery papers, handmade flowers, flowers within the sweet pea image or even all of the above. Just let your imagination lead you.

The prizes on offer this week are these three fabulous stamps from Sweet Pea Stamps!


There is a great shipping deal on at Sweet Pea stamps but hurry as the offer ends today!



This week is the last time the challenge will be weekly. From now on the challenge will be fortnightly and also the day is moving to FRIDAY to give all the weekend crafters some extra time to join us. This will of course mean a bigger prize and more time to spend on your entries. So we will be back on September 10th with our next challenge.

Here are the wonderful Design Team creations to inspire you! Please visit their individual blogs to see more details on their fantastic projects.
