From The Heart.......


Welcome to another week of wonder from the Digi Doodle Shop's Best!  This week our challenge is Punch or Cut Me!!!!! You can use any punches or die cuts from any type machine!!!! I know you use these on your projects every day so there is NO reason not to join in!

All of the girls on the DT have been working so dang hard to give you inspiration so hop on over and take a look at what they did and then leave them a little lovin! We are sad to have to say goodbye to our Guest DT Melanie after this week.  She is a electrifying artist and it was a pure pleasure having her as part of the team.

 For my card this week I went vintage and chose the vintage school bench.  Funny thing is my grade school had these yet when I started there.  I colored it with copics and then highlighted a few areas with glossy accents.  I tried something new for me this week. I used Distress Inks for the very first time.  I had fun with them but still have to practice a bit!   I also got a present from my hubby and I got to use that also on this card. He bought me a Cuttlebug so I used it to cut my corners and my sentiment out. Much easier than using the first generation Sizzix!!!!!  My sentiment was computer generated and reads" The best teachers teach from the heart; and not from a book."  I find that to be oh so true!!!  


So won't you pop on over and join us and try your hand at the challenge. Don't forget to check out the Digi Doodle Shop. You will not beleive all the new stamps that have been added. If you do not keep checking back you will miss sooooooo much!!!  The winner of the challenge will get a $10.00 gift certificate to use at the shop!
