Allsorts Challenge #741/2 - All Creatures Great & Small

 Hi Crafters,

It's turned rather warm here over the past few days and it's looking good for the weekend but before I head off for some R&R I'd like to share my design team card for the new two week challenge starting at Allsorts today.

Anything Goes/All Creatures Great and Small


I have chosen to use this cute cat die, I have no idea what make it is as it was bought in a bundle from Ebay. The Frame however, is a Crafters Companion die and I have embossed the background using a Daisy Mae Designs Dotty EF. The design paper is from an older Craft Consortium 12 x 12 pad called Bluebells and Buttercups by Helz Cuppleditch.

Challenges I'd like to enter:

to be added

We have lovely prizes from  AALL and Create and a £15 voucher from WOWVOW.



Come and join in the fun this week, the design team have some fabulous inspirational projects for you, take a look at them here.

Have a great weekend!
