Week 761 - autumn friends

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘anything but square’ 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 4 digi images courtesy of Lili of the Valley and also revealing who Lisa has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.  

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Wendy from Team 2, and she has given us the fantastic theme of autumn friends'.  Wendy has given you a fun theme this week and wants to see images depicting friends enjoying autumn such as squirrels, hedgehogs, bears etc.  We can’t wait to see what you make. Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card but don't forget you must include an image coloured with markers.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun! 

Our generous sponsor this week is Di's Digi Stamps and she is offering one lucky winner a £6.00 voucher to spend in her online store.  

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.

Hugs, Denise, Gina and DT x x

Week 760 - anything but square

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 ‘make it masculine’ 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 3 images courtesy of Sheepski Designs and also revealing who Nat has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.  

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Lisa from Team 1, and she has given us the fantastic theme of ‘anything but square'. Lisa would like you to think outside the box this week and make a card that is not square.  It could be round, star, snowflake or simply just a rectangle card.  Sounds like fun doesn’t it!!  Such a brilliant theme, don't you agree and we can’t wait to see what you make.  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 Lili of the Valley and they are offering one lucky winner 4 digi images of their choice from their online store.  All of the DT have used images from LOTV 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):

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.
