Week 831 - dies and/or punches

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you had a great week last week.  Thank you so much for your entries into last week's 'think pink' challenge; as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations. Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing our lucky winner of the 3 digi images courtesy of Colour of Love Digis and we will also find out who Karen  has chosen as her top 5 passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Marlene from Team 1, and she has given us the theme of ‘dies and/or punches’. Marlene doesn't mind what you make this week as long as you include some die cuts or punched pieces. This is always a very popular challenge and I know I can’t make a card anymore without reaching for the dies, so hopefully this week’s challenge will have lots of entries and we cannot wait to see what you create. Please remember 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 RAM Stamps and they are offering one lucky winner a £10.00 voucher to spend in their online store.  All of the DT have used images from RAM 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):

Stay safe and sending our love to you all.

Week 830 - think pink!

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week and enjoyed the sunshine. Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘make it bloom’ 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 lucky winner who will receive the 2 digi images courtesy of All Dressed Up Stamps and we will also be finding 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 lovely theme of ‘think pink’ to inspire you this week.  Karen doesn’t mind what you make this week as long as the dominant colour on your creation is pink; you can use other colours but we must see lots of pink.  We all love making our girly creations so hopefully this will be a popular theme.  We hope you’ll have fun and can’t wait to see what you create this week.  The only rule we have is to hand colour your image using your markers.  

Our generous sponsor this week is Colour of Love Digis and they are offering one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store.  Most of the DT have used images from Colour of Love on their creations this week. 

The design team have created beautiful cards once again this week (please click on their names to visit their personal blogs and leave them some love!):
