 challenge so pop over and have a look at what our fab design team created!

Our sponsors:

Stamp and Create 
 

and

Stash Books 

Before I proceed with this weeks challenge card I want to tell you of a very important date...

***6th September***

...TTT 1st Birthday!

 We will be holding a Birthday Bash you won't want to miss!

We have some fantastic prizes up for grabs that week from Digi Images and Vouchers to Die Cuts and Goody Bags....in total about £200 worth! Mark it in your diary now!

Have you voted yet on what the Birthday Bash Challenge should be?

The last time I looked Easel Card was in the lead.....if you'd rather 'Recycle' or 'Anything but a Card' make sure you vote now as it is closing very soon! Pop over to Top Tip Tuesday blog to vote.

My take to Masculine Card challenge and my tip:

When heat embossing, gently rub the surface with anti-static bag to remove fingerprints and prevent stray pecks of powder.

I'm entering my card into the following challenges:
