We have a brand new challenge over at CraftyCatz for you, with two more fabulous sponsors again this week.....It's our lovely Beth's turn to set the theme, she wants you to use Dies and/or Punches, we were very lucky to get some images to use from one of this weeks sponsors, Digi Stamps for Joy....


We also have Crimson Cloud with us and as always you can grab yourselves some lovely Die-cuts....
My card is very simple this week, Just used the sentiment from DS4J, papers are from an old pack I have and ribbon is Dovecraft......Used some Kraft card to matt and stamped round edges with my old fav stamp in TH distress ink....

CraftyCatz challenge # 170 BINGO..

Good Morning and welcome to a brand new challenge at CraftyCatz....
This week it our lovely Naomi's turn to choose a theme, she went for a game of Bingo.....


We have two sponsors this week, so double the chance to win...first up is the fab StampFairy, who also gave the DT some images to use...they have a fabulous $10 gift voucher
Next up we have the wonderful MeiFlower Crafts with a brilliant $20 voucher, oh I could so use that....

OK, I had to use a Sugar Nellie image for my card this week as I am having printer probs...as in my ink dried up..lol....and I do confess to not being able to craft much as, yet again, I have been ill, YES, just for a change I ended up taking a nice afternoon ride last Saturday in an Ambulance....now I have Kidney troubles and am waiting on a x-ray, you know the one with the die....oh it's all great, and extremely painful......Fortunately for me, I have a great family, friends and teamies, and as for the  boss, Carol, she has been brilliant, always so understanding, thanks Carol.....

I chose the Embossing, Pearls and Lace, everything was from stash and the pearls are actually Viva Decor, the image was printed such along time ago I can't remember the font I used....

I had made this in hand for my Daughters friend who was due this month, well, so convinced was I she was having a Boy.....NO...it's a girl, so I have a card ready for a boy now...lol...
I am entering this into the challenge over at the SugarBowl....it's there 100th challenge can you believe...wow....and you can make anything you like as long as it has Sugar stuff on it....
Thats all for now, I am sorry but I have little to no energy at all, am just hoping that my appointment comes through quick, my Doc assures me it's being rushed through as urgent, but if you see the NHS up close, you will be as afraid as I became last week-end, we can not let this carry on...hate to be political, but it is being sold out from under us, it will end up privatised and then what....alot of people still remember what it was once like, heaven help us if that comes around again in our life time....
Sorry, rant over..lol....have a great week-end and take good care of yourselves, hugs Janette.xxxxxxxxx
