Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Karen from Team 2 and she has given you the lovely theme of ‘let’s celebrate’ to inspire you this week.  Karen would simply like you to create something for any kind of celebration i.e. birthday, new baby, wedding, Halloween, Christmas etc.  A nice open theme this week so let’s see lots of entries!  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun!  Just remember your entry must include a hand-coloured image.

Our generous sponsor this week is All Dressed Up stamps and they are offering one lucky winner 2 digi images of their choice from their online store.  All of the DT have used images from All Dressed Up on their creations this week.

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):
