Week 841 - favourite colour combo

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your entries in last week’s 'summertime' challenge.  As always it was lovely to see 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 who will win the 3 digi images courtesy of Colour of Love Digis and we will find out who Marie has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.  

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Karen from Team 2 and she has given you the theme of ‘favourite colour combo’. Karen is being kind to you this week and has chosen a really simple challenge; you can make anything you like just let us know what your favourite colour combo is (it’s always nice to find new colour combos isn’t it?).  Obviously we know that our favourites can change from day to day and week to week so don’t worry you are allowed to enter more than one favourite.  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.  The only rule we have is to use your markers and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Clearly Besotted Stamps and they are offering one lucky winner a £15.00 voucher to spend in their 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
