Good morning a little late but been a busy girl doing behind thing to do with the challenge and realised I hadnt done my post.
This week at Crafty Catz we have 2 sponsors Yes you read that right and we have a new sponsor which we are really excited about.
Nick is our host and she picked our optional challenge - HUGS
However as always our challenge is ANYTHING GOES and you can enter 3 times.
We had a massive turnout last week.
if we didnt get round to leave a comment please be assured it was due to time being short and they where all views when picking our Top Three.
So our sponsors for this week are

Sponsor #1



Prize 3 digis in our shop






Sponsor #2



Prize 5 images for their page under label new release

I love these images so much I had to make a card with each and you will see that the girls all where all the same.

So here is my 1st card using Mother and Baby (Star Jam Lines)


Image coloured with promarkers
Dp is from a A5 pad from a local pound shop
Ribbon from stash
Sentiments are Rubber stamps from WOJ sadly no longer
Diecuts are Cottage Cutz
few Pearls to finish


I have used the set Some Coffee for this one from Little Blue Button
Coloured with promarkers
Novo drops
Rubber stamp sentiments from Swedish house
Dp from my stash a loose sheet
Corner punch

Well I really enjoyed making these and as we have 2 baby boys due in the family very soon the top one will be sent out and I am sure we all have friends we are missing so a card to send a hug and hopefully a cuppa and catch up soon.

Craft Challenge - Heros

Good Morning
It’s time for a new challenge over at
This week the theme is …
Hero

This challenge is in honour of all heroes of all times, including those of World Wars I and II, and all the current heroes amidst the COVID-19 pandemic

It is doubly important at this horrendous time that we acknowledge the thousands of heroes working tirelessly to keep us alive, refuse collectors, doctors, nurses, hospital cleaners, food workers, delivery men, food producers, farmers, shop workers, social workers, care workers and teachers caring for the children of our key workers and volunteer workers within the community.
Thank you to each and every one of you.

We have two fantastic sponsors this week.

For my card I chose a image from Jan's digital Stamps called ''Angel of Mercy"


Image coloured with promarkers
Martha Stewart punch
Glittered card and Ribbon from stash
Blue card to mat to tie back to the colour of clothing and ribbon

Now there are lots of inspiration for our heros on the challenge blog.
Did you see the number of cards Captain Tom received for his 100th Birthday wow what he must have seen in his life time.
Thanks for popping by have a fabulous day.

Have you been busy crafting or like me Mojo gone on holiday without me. I have found my cake tins lol so made some cakes which will not be eatten by me as they are being dropped off to son and and nephews. I even found my Bread maker. Trouble is no flour in the shops.

Anyway back to my DT post for PASSION FOR PROMARKERS
This week it is Julies turn to pick our theme and she has asked for 
Add A Sentiment

For my card i have used a old Saturated Canary image called Over Due.
Now i see from facebook that Krista has opened a Etsy shop or will be shortly with her digi images
so for my card I made a Birthday card for my sons partner who is expecting.
Something a little different not sure you would get a birthday card like this do you.
