Sponsor Spotlight

Welcome to this week's Sponsor Spotlight where today I'm going to tell you about our fantastic host this week.. JUST SOME LINES

Just Some Lines is a relatively new digital shop where lines bring characters to life. It has approximately 200 digital stamps which were drawn by Jehanne, the owner. Jehanne is a self taught artist and a stay at home mum who enjoys drawing whimsical characters.

Jehanne has graciously donated a $15 gift certificate to the JSL store for this week's challenge winner so you want to make sure you get in on the challenge. We're looking for your non square/rectangle shaped cards and projects this week. You can find the challenge here

Some of the Design Team have put together a few more inspiration pieces for you, using some of JSL's great images...
