'Make it personal'
Also we have a great sponsor, Diane of Di's DigiDownloads. So be sure to pop over to the challenge blog to see some great inspiration from our design team, and details of how to enter.

I have used a great Dustin Pike image on my card and personalised it for my son Jacob. His birthday isn't until July, he is dinosaur mad so thought it a perfect time to make his card and personalise it for this challenge.

I have made 2 cards this week and both are made using digital stamps. I couldn't find a border punch so used my decorative edge scissors to do my fancy edges. I have also used lace on one of the cards as this has a fancy edge too.

The card I have made is dedicated to one of my favourite films Sex and the City. I just loved the movie and I'm looking forward to the sequel. I used 2.5mm stick on gems in pink for the wording.

Then layered the backing papers in different shades of pink (very girly) added ribbon and paper flowers. Also added extra bling in places.

Popcorn the Bear Acetate Card

Well, I have been looking out at the snow (going a bit slushy as we have only had sleet today) and making cards.

I wanted to do something a little different and new to me so I made an acetate card. I have only used acetate to make shaker cards so this has been a lovely change and I am pleased with the result.

I have used, A4 acetate cut to 130mm square and creased. Popcorn the Bear Birthday Hugs Stamp Set, promarkers, adhesive, backing and flowers from my stash.

I would also like to say what a fantastic response we have had so far on our challenge blog with the DT call. There is still plenty of time to enter, so if you fancy click on the link in the side bar for the challenge blog where you will find details.

To finish we are holding our biggest ever sale for a limited time there is a massive 40% off everything online, but must end soon!!!!

I hope everyone is surviving this cold weather here in the UK, we missed the snow today but more is planned for later in the week. Will have to get wrapped up while I'm making cards in my conservatory (trust me to get the coldest room in the house, lol....lovely in summer though).

Bye for now
