Week 44 – top 5 passionista

Hello again, we’re back to announce the top 5 passionista for last week as chosen by Denise.  We have to say the standard of entries for last week was exceptional and Denise had a very tough job narrowing it down to just 5.  You all loved making your Easter/spring cards last week and it was a pleasure visiting all your blogs and seeing the cutie animal images you used. 

So without any more waffling from me, here are Denise’s top 5 passionista for week 44:

Week 45 - Theme

Hello again and welcome to our new challenge.  Before we give you the details of the challenge we would like to a big thank you for all your gorgeous entries to the ‘springtime including an animal’ challenge last week.  There were some gorgeous and cute projects entered and Denise is going to have a tough time picking her top 5 passionista.  Don’t forget to check back later to see who will be the lucky winner of the £10.00 voucher courtesy of Angel Crafts and also to see if you are one of Denise’s top 5 passionista. 

So onto this week’s challenge, which has been chosen by Gina.  She would like you to ‘use 2 images on your project’ – you could stamp two separate images, or use a focal image and background stamp or even merge two digi images – it’s entirely up to you.  You can use any colour promarkers to colour your images but your must follow the theme to be eligible for the prize draw.
