Week 625–embossing

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you had a great week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries for our ‘use a die’ challenge.  It was so lovely to have so many of you join us and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations.  Don’t forget to pop back later to find out who won the 2 digi image courtesy of All Dressed Up Stamps and also to see who Nat has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Lorraine C. from Team 1, and she has given us the theme of ‘embossing’.  Lorraine doesn’t mind what you make this week as long as it has some embossing on it.  We will accept dry or heat embossing so grab your embossing powders, heat guns and embossing folders and let’s see some texture on your creations.  Such a fun and easy theme this week and we cannot wait to see all your gorgeous entries.  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Sheepski Designs and they are offering one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store.  Most of the DT have used images from Sheepski Designs on their cards this week.

The design team have worked their magic once again this week and have created beautiful cards to inspire you (please click on their names to visit their personal blogs):
