This week we are featuring creations from the Sale a Bration Catty! You can directly CASE (Copy and Share Everything) or use a sketch/layout, colour combo, embellishment, just to name a few examples, as a springboard for your own creations. 

Our challenge closes on Thurdays at 5:00 pm (AEDT). We have a few rules to keep things fun and fair!

• Create a new project for the current challenge.
• Mention CTC Challenges in your blog post and link back here so others can join in on the fun.
