My name is Heidi Erickson, co-owner of The Stamp Shoppe in Schofield, Wisconsin since 1997. I started drawing images for Stamp Shoppe Creations in October 2009. We started with a Penguin line of stamps, but have expanded to other cute animal stamps and sentiments as well. Our stamps are made from deeply etched rubber and are available unmounted or cling mounted.

And here is the fab prize on offer for one lucky winner this week...

Here is what Ellie had to say...

"I am Ellie, the owner of the Digital StampOasis. We are a small family owned/operated digi-stamp company offering digital images for coloring and using with your paper crafts. The images are all hand drawn by my dear husband Robert and turned into digitals by me.

Digital images are a true space saver and a great way to add several images to your collection without having to break the bank. They will be emailed to the winner in a zip-file and after you unzip the file, they can be printed out again and again on card stock, and used just as you would use a stamped image. Copics (or similar) markers, as well as prismacolor pencils blended with odorless mineral spirits work GREAT with digital images. Just color and start creating!"

And here is the fab prize on offer for one lucky winner this week...


Ellie is offering one lucky winner their choice of FIVE images from her store.

As always the winner will be chosen using Random.org

Challenge 111 - Boyz to Men!

Thank you to all of you who took the time to join in with our challenge again last week, another fantastic week.

I also want to remind everyone that to eligible for the prize you must follow the theme with a NEW card or project and link back to this blog. Any cards made and posted on your blog before the date of this weeks challenge will not be eligible to win our prize this week.

The Design Team have asked me to make a plea to you all.....Word Verification is a real drag when we are trying to leave comments on your cards....but when you also have Comment Moderation....why!!! Please would you all consider turning off Word Verification and turning on Comment Moderation...that way it saves us time leaving comments, but still protects you from spam comments as you can just publish the ones that are ok. On my blog I have neither and I don't get that many spam comments....and because I have set up my blog to be emailed whenever I receive a comment, I can go straight in and delete the offending ones....So join in the campaign and get rid of Word Verification!

The winners of the fantastic prizes kindly donated by The Stamp Shoppe
