Hi I am Carmen, I am thrilled to have joined the Digitally Sweet Challenge design team. Just a little about me, I am a stay at home mom to 4 kids.  I spend most days driving my kids to and from school and sporting events.  In my spare time I enjoy papercrafting, playing with my computer and pottery.  I love working with my hands and keeping my mind active with new techniques or ideas. In 2007 I purchased a commercial embroidery machine which opened  my world to graphics and converting them into embroidery designs.  Along with "digitizing" embroidery designs I learn Paint Shop Pro. Before long I began selling my embroidery designs as well as graphics online, which naturally then had me creating scrapbook kits as well as hybrid card and project kits.  I have since closed my online shop but still love playing with Paint Shop Pro.  I hope to be able to create some digital projects that will inspire you to learn more about the digital world. 

Reminder & New Winner



It's been brought to my attention that our winner yesterday did not link up to us, nor follow the challenge theme clearly. This is what I get for doing posts right before bed when my eyes are closing on their own. I hate to do this, but it's clearly stated in the rules: 
  • We reserve the right to remove any links not linked properly or that we feel doesn't meet our challenge criteria
Therefore, we have chosen another winner, one who has followed all the rules

AMANDA!

Congrats Amanda, please contact Karen to claim your prize. 

Again, PLEASE follow the rules as stated below to be eligible to win :)

A new DT Member!

Hello!!! We have added another new member to our team! Please help us welcome Dorothy! Visit her very first post with us here showcasing her first challenge with us, which is being sponsored by Lacy Sunshine and we're looking for Stars on your creations! Find our current challenge HERE



And here's a little about Dorothy!


Hiya, I'm Dorothy also known as Dorothy'sCreations. I've been crafting all my life as my Mother was an aritst and my best friend loved to sew, knit and crochet. While in my 20's I even worked in a craft store and taught crafting classes. In 1996 I was in a car accident that left me in a wheelchair but I don't let it slow me down. I first got into paper scrapbooking because of my sister but in 2005 I discovered digital scrapbooking and my digital artist journey began.

I quickly went on to design my own kits and did sell in 4 digital scropbooking online shops for a few years but I eventualy went back to crafting real life. I missed the paper and glue! Nothing better than inky finger too...lol. BUT I almost always use something from my printer on my cards. I LOVE hybid crafting, it was meant for me! I'm American but I live in the UK with my British hubby, my 21 yr old daughter, my 2 dogs and 2 giant goldfish. I hope you enjoy my crafting designs and if you want to know how I did something, all you gotta do is ask me!

Hugs, Dorothy

Thanks for visiting and helping us to welcome our newest team member!

Please Welcome ..



Hello! If you're looking for our current challenge, please click HERE! Come join the fun!

We'd also like to take a moment and welcome Faith A to our design team! We are super excited to have Faith join us here at DSC and even though we just contacted her yesterday, she's already on the ball and rolling! So let's 'meet' Faith!


Hi I'm Faith Anderson, known as Faith A across Blogland.  I have done some sort of craft since my early years from dressmaking, home decor, weaving etc etc, then I came across Digital and I LOVED it. I could do things I wouldn't have been able to to before.  I suppose it was in the 1990's that I started, but now I use Photoshop and can't get enough of it.

And, here's her creation for this week's "Black and White with ONE other color" challenge!


Welcome to the team, Faith!!

DSC #78 'Inspirational Photo'

Morning everyone! Before we get to this weeks challenge, we have a winner to announce!

The winner is...


Congrats! You've won 3 images from Broken Box Stock. Please email Karen to see how to claim your prize!

This week we are being sponsored by Di's Digi's!


I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at College many years ago, I now work as a Medical photographer part time but my love was always drawing. I started cardmaking about 4yrs ago when I bought my daughter a cardmaking kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug! My daughter preferred scrapbooking. I then started looking online at other blogs and this then became my passion and I loved sharing my cards with likeminded people. I love stamping and loved finding images, but sometimes I could not find what I wanted so I started to draw myself. This then has become my second addiction and I have never looked back, I love thinking of new images, and its just fabulous to see others take them and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue!

One of you will win a $12 voucher to her store!! So lets get to it! Our challenge is based on this inspirational photo:

What inspires you? Here's what inspired us!
