Week 774 - all about love

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; 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 lucky winner who will win the £10.00 voucher courtesy of RAM Stamps and we will also find out who I have chosen as my Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which was chosen by Wendy from Team 2 and she has given us a theme of ‘all about love’  As Valentine's Day is fast approaching Wendy thought it would be a fun challenge to make a love themed creation this week.  It doesn't have to be a Valentine's card at all, it can be anything you like as long it has the word love, or is love themed such as an anniversary card.  It really cannot get any easier than that can it?  Such a great challenge and we cannot wait to see what you create.  You can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card but whatever you make please remember you must include a hand coloured image to be eligible for our prize draw.  So come on, grab your markers, and have fun! 

Our generous sponsor this week is All Dressed Up stamps who are offering one lucky winner 2 digi images of their choice from their online store.  All of the DT have used images from All Dressed Up Stamps 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.

Hugs, Denise, Gina and DT x x

Onto the new challenge, which was chosen by Lisa from Team 1 (before she stepped down from the DT) and she has given us a theme of ‘birthdays’ (as it happens to be her birthday today - happy birthday Lisa!).  This is the easiest theme you could have - we simply want you to make a creation suitable for a birthday.  It can be for anyone , any colours and any design.  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card although you do have to include a hand coloured image; so grab your favourite markers and get colouring.
