This week, I am pleased to welcome a new sponsor to our line up. Star Stampz has joined us and we are delighted. They have provided some super cute images for the team this week as well as 3 images to one lucky winner! Here's a little bit about them:

Hello! My name is Sarah though I am commonly known by friends and online as Star (thus came Star Stampz!) My nick name derived back from the early days when I first began signing my artwork as Stargirl (and have done so ever since.)

Art has has a big influence on my life and who I am. Though I have dabbled in many styles and types discovering Japanese anime and it's art style is what renewed my vigor to draw. It helps that I'm also a complete geek ~ anime, Japanese culture, books, writing, fantasy, cartoons, music, musicals, etc.

I am not very crafty with paper scrapbooking or putting together beautiful cards and creations but when I discovered the world of digital stamping I was fascinated what others could do with the same art stamp. I have also always been fond of inking pen drawings in my sketchbooks. I have focused a lot on my digital art and other freelance projects but digital stamps is that perfect niche for being creative and getting back line art drawings. I always look forward to see what creations others have turned my stamps into!

Our challenge this week is to use Buttons on your card....with all the new embellies around buttons sometimes get forgotten, so dust off your button jar and let's see them! Here are some great cards made by my design team featuring images from Star Stampz.

I sure hope you will join us this week. You could win 3 images from Star Stampz just for playing along. Be sure to follow the rules listed be low as well so that you are eligible for the prize.
