Week 764 - Christmas

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for all your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘birthdays’ challenge.  It was lovely to have you join us and 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 winner of the S10.00AU voucher courtesy of Beccy's Place and also revealing who I have chosen as my Top 5 Passionista (on behalf of Elaine).  

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Marie from Team 1, and she has given us the fantastic theme of ‘Christmas'. Marie would like you to simply make a Christmas themed creation this week.  We know most of you have started your Christmas cards/tags etc production by now but I'm sure there are quite a few you that haven’t begun yet and hopefully this challenge will give you a little kickstart!!  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  Just remember your entry must include a hand-coloured image to be eligible for the prize draw; so grab your markers and have fun! 

Our generous sponsor this week is Polkadoodles and they are offering one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store.  All of the DT have used images from Polkadoodles 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):
