Hello everyone and welcome to a new week and a new challenge at Crafty Catz. Thank you to everyone who entered last week, the winner will be announced shortly.


Before we move on to the challenge we have some sad news. Kirsty who ran and created this fantastic blog has sadly had to say goodbye to us due to increasing work commitments and the success of her wedding stationery business. We are all very sad to see her go but didn't want the challenge to end as we all love it too much so I, Suzie have taken the blog over and all the fabulous DT girls have been very supportive and we hope to continue making it a success and very much hope to see Kirsty back with us every so often.

Now onto this week's challenge, this week I would like to see stitching on your cards, this can be faux or real, whatever you like just have fun !

Our sponsor this week is Digital Delights and they are offering a $10 gift voucher to spend in their store.


Here is a little info about Digital Delights:

Welcome to Digital Delights, a magical place filled with my little digi creations from all walks of life. We have a wide range of digital stamps which are delivered straight to your email 24/7!!

Wendy also has her own line of Clear Acrylic stamps at Clear Dollar Stamps.

Please remember to link your entry through Mr Linky and please link directly to card and not just to your blog so we can find it easily and only one entry per person please.

Below are all the great cards from the DT, please pay them a visit if you have a moment and give them so love!
