Sneak Peek: Plaid Craft TV



Plaid Craft TV
 Coming this Spring to www.plaidonline.com.

Steve and I are so thrilled to share a sneak peek of our new crafting web-series, Plaid Craft TV!

Backstage antics...or lack of!


Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of the world’s most glamorous catwalk shows? As much as we would love to reveal a scandalous world of tantrums and catfights the reality is far less exciting, especially for the models. Check out these shots of Elite girls behind the scenes at the couture shows...backstage must haves include: ipod, phone, snack, book and a cup of tea!

only the image in colour


Don't forget our challenge is now open. Anyone can play along and you DO NOT need to use a Wags 'n Whiskers image.


Each challenge we have two prizes:

One random participant will win a

Wags 'n Whiskers Rubber stamp of their choice.
Any entry using a Wags 'n Whiskers image on their card will be entered into a drawing for a W'nW Digital stamp of their choice!!

Therefore, anyone who uses a Wags 'n Whiskers image will be entered into both prizes of a rubber stamp and a digital stamp!!

The only requirements are that you link directly to your challenge project - not to the main page of your blog. You must have a new project (no back linking) and you must link your card to the challenge post.

If you do not have a blog, you can still enter the challenges by uploading your cards to an open gallery such as Splitcoaststampers.
