And here’s a little bit about Sharon and her fabulous on line shop -

Truly Scrumptious Crafts is a new on-line craft store selling papercraft embellishments. We have a lovely selection of ribbons, buttons & charms and our range of items will continue to grow. You will find our prices extremely competitive so please come and have a browse through our shop.

And here’s what you could win this week if Mr Random thing chooses you -

And as the prize includes buttons and ribbons, we thought we’d stay with that theme, so our challenge this week is

Buttons, Bows, Brads & Bling :)

You can use any combination of these embellishments on your card. You can use just one or if you are feeling brave, all 4!!

So without further ado, let’s have a look at what the fabulous Papertake girlies did.

This week we are so pleased to introduce a new sponsor for you and it is Stitchy from Stitchy Stamps

And here is a little bit about Stitchy and her work -

I have been creating stamps for about 8 months now and absolutely became addicted when I learned how..I started with paint shop pro about 6 years ago and use to design scraps for scrapbooking..I introduced a good scrapper friend of mine to digi stamps and she decided to open a store - Digital-Ink,Co - about 5 months ago and the rest is history lol...

So our challenge this week is

Check This Out

And quite simply we just want to see some gingham or checks included in your work. It could be a ribbon or included on the design paper. As always, this is entirely up to you.

We also have some DT news as well.
Firstly, we are saying goodbye to our GDT, Sandra and Tami who have been with us for the past 4 weeks, so hugest of thanks to them for being part of our team and for sharing their wonderful work with us. We will have a new GDT for you next week once Mr Random Thingie has done his stuff and I've contacted those peeps to see if they are free to join us.

And we have a brand new team member for you.
But when we say new, she isn't really new at all, as she was one of the original PTW girls from way back when Steph started it all off. So a mahoosive welcome back to Caroline. We are thrilled to have her back with us :)x

So what did our girlies do with the challenge?
Well most of the cards you can see have been made using Stitchy's fabulous images, so let's 'check it out' and see lol xxx
