Week 693–for a man or boy

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you had a great week last week.  Thank you for all your gorgeous entries for our ‘make it square’ challenge; it was so lovely to have you join us and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations. Don’t forget to pop back later to find out who won the 2 digi images courtesy of Rachelle Anne Miller and also who Marlene has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Kitty from Team 2, and she has given you the theme of ‘for a man or boy’.  Kitty doesn’t mind what you make this week, as long as it’s masculine themed.  Now we know that male creations are probably not your favourite but you know you have to make them sometimes so why not join in our challenge and get ahead on those masculine makes on your list. We can’t wait to see what you create.  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Dies to Die For 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.

Week 692–make it square

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week and enjoyed our special anniversary challenge.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘anything goes’ challenge.  It was lovely to have so many of 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 9 lucky winners – yes 9!!  Just for this one week there will be no Top 5 Passionista as there are so many winners. 

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Marlene from Team 1, and she has given us the fantastic theme of ‘make it square’.  Marlene wants you to see all your square creations this week – it could be a square card, journal page or even a scrapbook layout.  As long as you have used your markers to do some colouring you can make whatever you like.  Remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card.  So just grab your markers, join in and have some fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Rachelle Anne Miller and she is offering one lucky winner 2 digi images of their choice from her online store.  All of the DT have used images from Rachelle Anne Miller’s new ‘positivity’ release 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):
