If you are up for it, please email me 3 of your favorite creations and it doesn't matter if they are cards, altered items, etc and please put DDCC DT Call in the Subject line. Please tell me a bit about yourself as well. The call will be open until June 1st!


Can't wait to see your entries!

Our sponsor this week is Pattie's Creations

and here's a bit about Pattie in her own words...

"I am an Internet Technology Professional and an Artist. I always dreamed of being an artist, but I found out quickly that I needed another field to support my family so I pursued a Degree in Information Technology. I love to use Adobe Photoshop and Fireworks to enhance my work. I just recently started selling my very own digital images and I am so excited to be here sponsoring the Dutch Dare Challenge.

I created a character called Pattieboop and her cat named Allie. I have had so much fun coming up with different images so I also created a site to sell them. You can go to my store to find out more about Pattieboop & Allie. I know you will just love them when you see them.

My store: http://www.etsy.com/shop/pattiescreations"

Pattie's work is wonderful, I encourage you to stop by her shop and have a look at everything she has to offer, you won't be disappointed!

Here's our sketch....feel free to flip or rotate it or substitute shapes, just make sure we can recognize that the sketch is there.
