Challenge 7 - A Simply Sweet Sketch

Thursday 18 February 2010
Good Morning
&
Welcome to The Thursday Charisma Cardz Challenge, Week 7!

Your entries this past week were amazing. It seems the general consensus is that very few people like to make "men" cards. With that being said, Tasha's theme was fabulous as it made us get outside our comfort zone. Good Theme Tasha. Thanks to everyone who joined in.

This week the challenge is being set by me, Sally. I have chosen a very simple sketch for a change. This will give you time to reset your Mojo from Valentine's Day to something new as there is no theme. Just a sketch for you to have fun with. Sky is the Limit! Our sponsor this week is All That Scraps.
We offer a little of everything for one stop shopping, including card stock, pattern paper, many stamp companies and great shipping rates. Home of C.C. Designs Rubber Stamps which is my passion, I love to see my drawings come to life on someones card or project.

Donna has very kindly donated a sweet Joanna sheen Messy Rabbit stamp and a backing paper pad for 1 lucky winner! Donna's Den is a fantastic Den of all crafts! you must go have a browse and spend some pennies too! :-)

And also the lovely Regina is back again from the cutting cafe.....
She has been kind enough to award a winner of the challenge the 'Little love birds ' (which is so adorable!) & everyday greetings (which is mega fab also!!) by Regina Easter from The Cutting Cafe. Plus if that isn't enough the winner can choose three other sets of their choice! Be sure to check out the Cutting Cafe!
