Sweet Sketch Wednesday 90 and Sweet n' Sassy Stamps

Hello, Sweet Sketch Wednesday followers.  This week it is Nancy from Arizona posting for our Sweet Sketch Wednesday design team.  I would like to say that it is "Sunny Arizona" but we got snow on Saturday and Sunday and it is really cold here again. We are expecting more tomorrow. I hope things are warming up a bit in your part of the world.
. I keep wondering when spring will come. 
I am so happy today to be able to represent our team this week.  Every week we are thrilled at the wonderful entries.  We get as much inspiration out of seeing your cards as our followers do.......So, a great big thank you to all of you for joining us each week.  We couldn't do it without you.  Every single week we are adding new followers.  It is really a joy to see the growth we have had this past year.
Thank you for your continued support.
If there is one thing I could say to our followers, It would be: "Please, please leave us a comment.  We want so much to include everyone in our GRAND PRIZE DRAWING."  So, before you leave our blog, leave us a little note.  If you would like to stop by our DT's blog and leave them a comment, that would be wonderful too.  I can't tell you how much we love to hear from you.

So, without any further ado..the Grand Prize Winner of last weeks challenge is:

#8 KATHY CURRY

And, the Top Three are:

#1: MERKKARI (#61)

#2: MELISSA SACKMAN (#29)

#3: SUE KMENT (#42)

Our sponsor this week is Sweet n' Sassy Stamps.  And,the lucky winner this week will receive a $10.00 gift certificate.

Here is this weeks sketch.
