A SWEET hello from Arlana this week. I am posting from Stockton, Utah. Last week our weather was a little warmer here. I am hoping for the same this week. First off, I want to tell all my followers about my new blog. I am starting to teach craft classes at my local scrapbooking store. On my new blog I will be posting my classes and kits for sale. I will also be selling my numerous cards and posting some of my cooking. My husband and I love to do Dutch Oven cooking. You won't want to miss out on those recipes. So to kick off my new blog I am offering blog candy. All you need to do is bug on over and become a follower and leave a comment on my blog. I will pick a winner as soon as I receive 100 followers. So when you're done here on Sweet Sketch Wednesday just bug on over to SWEET THINGS HANDMADE. Remember to have a chance to win you must leave me a comment and become a follower.
I hope you are all ready for another SWEET week at Sweet Sketch Wednesday!
