The first card Ive made for "me" in quite a few weeks!

The design team have made a wonderful selection of crafty makes, there are some brilliant ideas in each one, take a close look at them.

This week, we've been working with "Look at me" download available here.

This is a SKETCH challenge with a recipe thrown in so please enter using whatever stash you have at home.
The recipe for this week is, let me see:

1. Something pleated

2. Something floral

Good luck, we will look forward to seeing what you create.

WSC 29th April

Morning everyone, a new sketch along with a new recipe this week which has been set by me (Sharon). A thought I would try something a little quirky this week to get you all thinking, a very fun sketch that can be interpreted however you wish and using whatever items you have to play with at home, please feel free to change the dimensions of the sketch to fit in with whatever you choose to use.
The DT have done a fantastic job this week using Making Magic download by Willow Designs .
Take a look at how the DT have used her, lots of inspiration there!

Last weeks winner of the Willow Designs CD is Louise...., if you can email me here with your detials please.

The only thing left to do is give you this weeks recipe, bit of a thinker!


The recipe for next week is:
1. use a scrap of fabric (this can be anything from a tiny scrap to the size of the card)
2. Something green
3. some checks.


Enjoy!!, come back, leave a link so we can come visit you!
