The CHA 2012 Previews .....

Coming in thick & fast now, I just love looking through them to see what's new & going to be hot for the next 6 months. I am always on the look out for Tim Holtz launches, because there is always something there to wet the appetite. Take a look at his blog HERE for sneeky peeks of what he is launching this time around. I am particularly interested in his Distress Pens, complete with a transforming white one!

Quick Card for ......



Stella Owen Hibbert's Sketch Challenge in The Craft Cupboard's Show & Tell group over on facebook! 
I'm not completely sure I like it, I'm not used to skimping on the embellishments. For this sketch we were limited to only adding 3 flowers & MUST include the 3 sentiments, I felt a bit daunted by the simplicity of it. So I started off with a bold background, then that in turn had me scratching my head. In hindsight, I wish I had inked the edges of the dies cuts, but that's what a challenge is all about, so well done Stella!
If you would like to take part in Stella's Sketch Challenge yourself, feel free to give it a try & then pop over to The Craft Cupboard blog & link back to your cards page, so that we can view it, we would love to see it & I'm sure that you will do better than me!!

To get rid of the Christmas header on the blog
I'm a little sad to see it go, so think I will keep it to use again later on this year
