Hello again friends; we hope you’ve had a great day so far. We’re back to announce our lucky Winner and Top 5 Passionista for last week’s 'add ribbon' challenge. It was lovely to see your entries and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your gorgeous creations. I’ll be announcing Lorraine's Top 5 Passionista in a moment but firstly let’s find out who our lucky winner is!

For last week’s challenge we were sponsored by Dies to Die For and they offered one lucky winner a £15.00 voucher to spend in their online store. As always we used random.org and he chose:

No. 2

Congratulations Kathy; please email us at passionformarkerschallenge@gmail.com with your choice of images and we will get them sent out to you.  Please grab the winners badge for your blog too.

Week 797 - add flowers

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘add ribbon' 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 £15.00 voucher courtesy of Dies to Die For and we will also find out who Lorraine has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which was chosen by Elaine from Team 2 and she has given us a theme of ‘add flowers'.  Elaine has given you a super easy theme this week and would like to see flowers on your creations.  It could be a floral image, floral papers or even die cut flowers (as long as you also include an image coloured with markers).  Hopefully this will be a popular challenge and we can’t wait to see what you make.  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 just grab your markers, join in and have some fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Sheepski Designs who are offering one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice (the shop is closed but you will be sent a link to be able to choose your images).  Most of the DT have used images from Sheepski Designs on their cards 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):

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.
