Week 847 - under the sea

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you had a great week last week and are enjoying the sunshine.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries for our ‘CAS (clean and simple)’ 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 £15.00 voucher courtesy of Dies to Die For and also to see who Sarah 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 theme of ‘under the sea’.  Wendy would like to see your images include things such as mermaids, fish, sharks, whales, shipwrecks 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. The only rule we have is you must include a hand coloured image using any type of markers.

Our generous sponsor this week is Leann's World 101 and they are offering one lucky winner 2 digi images of their choice from their online store.  All of the DT have used images from Leann's World 101 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):

Stay safe and sending our love to you all.

Week 846 - CAS (clean and simple)

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week. Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘animals’ 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. Don’t forget to pop back later to find out who won the £6.00 voucher courtesy of Di's Digi Stamps and also who Nat has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge which this week has been chosen by Sarah from Team 1 and she has given us the fab theme of 'CAS (clean and simple)'. Sarah doesn’t mind what you make this week, as long as you keep it clean and simple. This is Sarah’s favourite style of card and I know it's sometimes difficult to step away from all the layers and embellishments but the effect is very striking. We hope you are up for this week’s challenge and we see lots of entries. Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card; the only rule we have is to 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.
