Top Tip Tuesday #43

Good Top Tip Tuesday Morning 

This week it's my turn to share a tutorial with you.

However, this tutorial is a little different...

Challenge - 'Shaped Cards'

I didn't want to limit my 'tutorial-time' to one shape of card so I thought I'd give you a few ideas for a few shapes!

That way you may be able to get some ideas and go and see what you have in your stash that you could turn into a Shaped Card!

***********************************************

Firstly lets see who's sponsoring us this week.......

Brand New Sponsor to TTT:

Hi there, I am Deb Mitchell & own The Emerald Faeries Garden Online Store based here in beautiful sunny Rockhampton, Queensland, Australia. I started my own business last year as I wanted to work from home & wanted to put a product out there that the world's cardies would fall in love with. So the EFG Stamps were born with the help of my brilliant Designer. So loving what I do & stay happy Ladies- always do what your heart tells you!

Debbie's Prize is 2 digi Faeries.
