Week 794 - masculine

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week. Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘animals' challenge; as always the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and seeing your beautiful creations. Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing our lucky winner who wins the 2 digi images courtesy of All Dressed Up Stamps and we will find out who Nat has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which was chosen by Sarah from Team 1 and she has given us a theme of ‘masculine'. As the title suggests Sarah would like you to make something for a man or boy this week.  We know male creations are difficult, and they are not our favourite things to make, but we always need them so come on take the plunge and join in the fun.  Please remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card but whatever you make you must include a hand coloured image to be eligible for our prize draw. So come on, grab your markers, and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Dr Digi's House of Stamps who are offering one lucky winner a prize of 2 digi images of their choice from their online store.  Most of the DT have used images from Dr Digi's HOS on their creations this week.
The design team have worked their magic once again this week and have created beautiful cards to inspire you (please click on their names to visit their personal blogs):
(using Dr Digi's image 'man about the house')
(using Dr Digi's image 'dumb-bell Derek')
(using Dr Digi's image 'baking Brian')
(using Dr digi's image 'Ambrose dunderton')
Another week of wonderful inspiration from the DT!! We hope you can join in with our challenge this week and we look forward to seeing what you create.

Stay safe and sending our love to you all.

Hugs, Denise, Gina and DT x x

Week 793 - animals

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘use a circle' challenge; as always the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and seeing your beautiful creations.  Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing our lucky winner who will win the £10.00 voucher courtesy of RAM Stamps and we will also find out who Sue has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which was chosen by Nat from Team 2 and she has given us a theme of ‘animals'.  Nat knows how much we all love our animals so she simply wants to see your cute critters (including birds) this week. It doesn’t have to be an animal image it could be animal themed patterned paper or an animal die-cut/embellishment as long as you also include a hand coloured image. Hopefully this will be a popular challenge and we can’t wait to see what you make.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun! Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  So just grab your markers, join in and have some fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is All Dressed Up Stamps who are offering one lucky winner a prize of 2 digi images of their choice from their online store.  All the DT have used images from ADU on their creations this week. 

The design team have worked their magic once again this week and have created beautiful cards to inspire you (please click on their names to visit their personal blogs):

(using ADU image 'butterfly bunny')
(using ADU image 'a time to give')
(using All Dressed Up image 'hedgehog flower')
(using ADU image 'two little mice')
(using ADU image 'woof u' - not in the shop at present)

Another week of wonderful inspiration from the DT and so many different shaped cards! We hope you can join in with our challenge this week and we look forward to seeing what you create.

Stay safe and sending our love to you all.

Hugs, Denise, Gina and DT x x
