It's Thursday again which means DT time for me over at
Wow did we have a massive response to Pami's Anything Goes challenge last week - over 400 fantastic entries - I'm glad I didn't have to choose that winner!
This week it's Shell's turn to host and she has chosen 'Have Some Cake' We have been sponsored by Bows and Berries who are offering the winner 2 Digi's from their store and everyone who enters can have a whopping 25% discount with this code BB25 whilst the challenge is running! We were lucky to be given some fun images to play with. 
For my card today I have tried my hand at paper piecing for the first time. I kept it nice and simple - glossy white and glossy black card and my top tier is spotty, I've 'net pieced' the veil if that counts! My sentiment is LOTV and along with some polka dot DP, a scrap of net and some ribbon that was that! I'm quite pleased with the outcome - believe it or not, this is very 'less is more for me! lol
Be sure to head over to the main challenge blog to check out the fabulous DT makes and I hope you will join us again this week for another great challenge.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Ladybugs Crafts Ink - Going Dotty
Simon Says Stamps - Paper Piecing or Piercing
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes
Divas By Design - Anything Goes
Thank you for stopping by to have a look and to those that do for your lovely comments.
Love 'n' Hugs
