ALLSORTS WEEK 16

Good morning everyone! Saturday is here again already (where has this week gone?) I hope you are all looking forward to a lovely Bank Holiday weekend. Lets keep the fingers crossed for some good weather.

This week it's my (Amanda) turn to set the theme and I am basically banning rubber this week!! Yup no stamped images or sentiments this week girls. (eeek) I will allow anything digital ~ so digital images, digital stamps, computer generated sentiments. If you're not a fan of digital images though remember there are hundreds of techniques out there that aren't stamping........parchment, iris folding, tea bagging, stitching, painting, decoupage........and thats just what I can come up with this morning!!

So get those forgotten techniques out and dust them off and, of course, enjoy yourselves!! Check out the fabulous DT samples, there is a wealth of inspiration for you there! This week as a prize I am offering this Stamping Up "polka dots" large background stamp. It's rattling around in the box so I will make sure to pad it out a bit with a few ribbons etc.


I hope you'll play along us with this week's challenge. We are all looking forward to blog hopping to see your non stamped creations. :o)

Thank you for this weeks challenge.I usually get in a mess with stamps,I always ink them too much and smudge them .This decoupage is quite big and I haven't had the chance to use it for any challenges before.I've left my card at Mr Linky,hope you like it.
