Week 419–shades of autumn

Good morning lovely crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘Halloween or use Halloween colours’ challenge.  It was lovely to see your wonderful creations and 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 $12.00 voucher courtesy of Bugaboo stamps and we will find out who Hazel has chosen as her top 5 passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Elaine from Team 2, and she has given us the brilliant theme of ‘shades of autumn’.   As the title suggests Elaine doesn’t mind what you make this week as long as you use autumn colours i.e. orange, yellow, red, brown, green etc.  Take your inspiration for the colours all around you at the moment as autumn has most definitely arrived now.  Remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card.  As always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Winsor & Newton (formerly Letraset) products (promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, aqua markers or metallic markers) and of course follow the theme.  Please can you help us by stating which Letraset products you have used on your creation I.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc.  Thanks x x

We have 2 fab prizes up for grabs this week.  Our first generous sponsor this week is Petal Lu and they are offering one lucky winner a 30% discount voucher to use in their online store.  Their flowers are so beautiful so why not pop over to their store and check them out.

The second prize up for grabs is a 6 pack of promarkers donated by myself and Gina.  At the moment the pens are packed away in my garage as I’m decorating my craft room and I have to admit I can’t remember which set of pens it is we bought!!

Week 418–Halloween or use Halloween colours

Good morning lovely crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you so much for all your gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘anything goes’ challenge.  It was lovely to see so many of your wonderful creations and the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs.  Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing our lucky winner of the 3 digi images courtesy of Crafty Sentiments designs and also we will find out who I have chosen (on behalf of Donna) as my top 5 passionista (not an easy task at all this week!).

Onto the new challenge which this week has been chosen by Hazel from Team 1 and as Halloween is just around the corner she has given us a very easy theme of ‘Halloween or use Halloween colours’.  Hazel would like you to create some Halloween themed creations this week but of course she appreciates that not everyone likes Halloween so she would also love to see your general creations made using Halloween inspired colours I.e. orange, green, purple, black etc.  Another fantastic theme and really simple I think you’ll agree.  Remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card.  As always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Winsor & Newton (formerly Letraset) products (promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, aqua markers or metallic markers) and of course follow the theme.  Please can you help us by stating which Letraset products you have used on your creation I.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc.  Thanks x x

Our generous sponsor this week is Bugaboo stamps and they are offering one lucky winner a $12.00 voucher to spend in their online store.  Their images are so much fun so why not pop over to their store and check them out.  Some of the DT were lucky enough to use Bugaboo stamps images on their creations this week.
