Aud Sentiments Challenge Blog: May 2011

I just wanted to let all of you know that we have been having a lot of issues with blogger and are having a hard time commenting on your entries. Please know that we are visiting ALL of your blogs and hopefully this problem will be fixed soon.

It's time for a new challenge! I hope you had fun with the last one. Sometimes I love making cards that say nothing to have on hand, that way when I need a certain kind of card I can just add a sentiment to it.

The winner of a $10 Gift Certificate from Digi Chick is...

Our sponsor for this challenge is Digi Chick. What a fun company! You should pop over there and take a look. They let the entire DT choose products to use and we all had do much fun with them. Their kits have everything!

Here is a little bit about the company and their products...

"We're a digital scrapbooking community that exists to encourage, inspire and celebrate life's little moments with you. What is digital scrapbooking? Well, it's a bit like traditional paper scrapbooking, except that your layouts are created on your computer with dots and pixels instead of glue and scissors. It's an extremely versatile medium and we're sure you'll find that it's also quite addicting once you start to play around with it!
We work with .jpg papers and .png elements that will easily open in any photo-editing software, like Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Elements or Paint Shop Pro. You can change the colors of your supplies to suit your needs and fix mistakes with the magical undo button. And once you've created a page, you can easily share your layouts with friends and family on-line, as well as send off your work to be printed and bound into a family album. Or you can print off your digital supplies to use with your paper stash. There's a lot you can do with digital scrapbooking! So, come on in and check out what we're all about."

The sentiment for this challenge is NO SENTIMENT.

This is a great chance to make some all occasion cards, gift packaging and gifts.

We have another fabulous video from Catherine Pooler.
