All Dressed Up also have a blog where they run monthly challenges for anyone using an ADU digi stamp and they provide some freebies, but please respect the rules for using these. They also encourage junior crafters (under 16s) to send in an email of their creations using All Dressed Up stamps.

The DT were kindly given digital products to create sample projects. Our randomly picked winner will receive a choice of 3 digi stamps.

We're looking forward to seeing your anything goes projects!
