Week 486–for a child/include stitching (real or faux)

Good morning lovely crafters; I hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘springtime’ challenge. As always it was lovely to see your gorgeous entries and the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs. Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing the lucky winner of the $12 gift code courtesy of Bugaboo stamps and we will also be finding out who Shelly has chosen as her top 5 passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which was chosen by Elaine from Team 2 and her theme is ‘for a child/include stitching real or faux’.  Elaine would like to see your cards for the young people in your lives this week but to spice things up she always wants you to include some stitching on your creations too.  As you can see most of the DT have used stitched edge dies on their creations but we would love to see some ‘real’ stitching too if you’re feeling extra creative.  As always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Winsor & Newton (formerly 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 products you have used on your creation I.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc.  Thanks x x

Our generous sponsor this week is Di’s Digi Stamps and they are offering one lucky winner a $6.00 voucher to spend in their online store.  Their images are so cute so why not pop over to their store and check them out.

The design team have worked their magic once again this week and have created beautiful cards to inspire you (please click on their names to visit their personal blogs):

Another week of wonderful inspiration from the DT!! We hope you can join in with our challenge this week and we look forward to seeing what you create.
