For this challenge we have Digi Doodles as our sponsor.

They have the cutest images. You should definitely go check them out. They are giving the winner $10 Gift Certificate to the store.


Here is a little bit about them...


"Digi Doodle Shop is the results of a mother and daughter’s love for the arts and crafts. It was started just a couple of months ago with a little more than 100 stamps, and has since then grown to over 250 stamps - now available. Joy (the mother of this team) designs realistic images, while I (Judy aka/daughter) love the “fun side of life”, and create images with cartoon flair. Having these two complimenting styles have enabled Digi Doodle Shop to offer just about any type of stamp. Plus, we also offer “custom made stamps”, and blog designs. Our best work comes from request, so if you don’t see what you’re looking for, just send us an email and before long you’ll see it in the shop. It is a real honor and pleasure to sponsor this challenge, and we look forward to seeing all the amazing creations. We thank the design team for their incredible creations, and wish all the participants the very best of luck in this challenge. Thank you so much for having us, and again the very best of luck to all of you. Sincerely, Judy and Joy"

For this challenge we want to see A Sentiment/Card For A Child.

This time around we are lucky enough to have Sassy Studios as our sponsor again. They have such fun images to play with as you will see from the wonderful work of the DT.

Here is a little bit about Sassy Studios...

"Sassy Studio Designs is a fresh new company. We have been designing and selling for a year now, and we have been kindly received into the community of digi stampers and crafters. I started designing images shortly after I started stamping, reason being...I didn't hardly like anything else out there I was a young adult woman at the time I was engaged, had no kids, I wanted fun sexy images that I would enjoy using and my friends and hubby would enjoy receiving. I designed images for 2 other digi stamp companies when my wonderful hubby kept trying to get me to go out on my own. So in June 2009 thanks to the few faithful followers I had, Sassy Studio Designs was born! It has been a wonderful journey starting my own store. We have just grown so much these past months.I still try to keep Lindsay Dyer: keep with my original philosophy and reason for designing stamps, make them fun and keep them sassy...and yes sometimes even sexy! Lindsay"

They are giving the winner 4 digi images of your choice.



For this challenge we want to see Get Well cards. These are always good to have on hand so let's see your beautiful creations!

I am so excited to announce that we have My Time Made Easy as our sponsor for this challenge. I have been using Lauren's templates for a while now and I was so excited when she said yes to sponsoring us! If you haven't had a chance to use any of her products you should definitely try them out. She has some freebies on the site. Here is the link.


Here is a little bit about the company...
My Time Made Easy provides you with the basics for creating your own coordinating handmade cards, tags, and gift packaging in no time. It is fun, affordable, and we made it easier than ever! I have always said that it really is all about the TOTAL package. Now you can afford to create and dress up the simplest of gifts on your own, and make them appear to be that much more special. Nothing says love like something handmade.

For this challenge we would like to see Birthday cards, gift packaging or gifts.


Here are the beautiful projects from the DT using My Time Made Easy stamps, templates and digital papers...
