Onto the new challenge, which was originally set by Sue from Team 2 (however sadly Sue has now stepped down from the DT) and she is has given us a theme of “spots and/or stripes.  We would like you to simply make something that includes spots, stripes or if you’re feeling brave both spots and stripes!  We can’t wait to see what you make.  As Sue is no longer able to choose her top 5 I will be doing it instead.  Remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card.  As always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letraset products (promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, aqua markers or metallic markers) and of course follow the theme. Please can you help us by stating which Letraset products you have used on your creation i.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc.  Thanks x x
