Week 712 - dies and/or punches

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘colour challenge - blue, green and purple’.  It was lovely to have you join us and as always the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and seeing your beautiful creations.   Don’t forget to pop back later to find out who won the £15.00 voucher courtesy of Dies to Die For and also who Wendy has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Lorraine C. from Team 1, and she has given us the ever popular theme of ‘dies and/or punches'.  Lorraine doesn't mind what you make this week as long as you include some die cuts or punched pieces.   This is always a very popular challenge; I know I can’t make a card anymore without reaching for the dies, so hopefully this week’s challenge will have lots of entries.  Please remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card but whatever you make please remember you must include a hand coloured image to be eligible for our prize draw.  So come on, grab your markers, and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Sheepski Designs and they are offering one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store.  All of the DT have used images from Sheepski Designs on their creations this week.
