This week our challenge is to use colouring pencils only, wow it was hard not to use my promarkers...lol, i just cannot imagine been without them these days.

Our sponsor this week is The craftypad and they are offering two stamps of your choice.

We were lucky enough to be given a choice of a few images to use from the craftpad and i chose this fab cat image, so cute, would work for male or female cards.

I am also adding this card too.....

The first card cupcake kisses was made from a down loadable sheet from crafts u print, link in side bar. it's such a quick and easy card to do also comes with a stand, but i attached it to a bigger card with embossing dots on.

This baby one is to go with a nappy cake which i have just made for a work colleague, who leaves the end of this week.
