Week 101–special anniversary winners!

Hello again crafters, we’re back to announce the lucky winners of our special anniversary challenge last week.  As you know there are so many winners from last week that we won’t be having a top 5 passionista but rest assured it is back to normal for this week’ challenge. 

There were so many gorgeous winners that it would have been impossible for us to choose our winner’s so we have relied on good old random.org to select the lucky ones!  We think we’ve kept you waiting long enough so without any further ado here are the lucky winner’s from last week’s “all the 2’s” challenge:

The winners of the 2 stamping kits courtesy of Letraset are:

Week 102 - Theme

Good morning dear crafters, we trust you’ve had a good week. After all the excitement of last week’s anniversary it’s back to normal this week but from this week we now have design team 2 showcasing their work for the next 6 months.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all the lovely comments you left us last week and for taking part in the challenge and making it such a brilliant success. Your entries were as gorgeous as always and it was fantastic to see all your different versions of the ‘all the 2’s’ challenge. We will be using random.org (as always) to choose our winners so don’t forget to check back later to find out if you are one of our lucky winners.

Onto this week’s challenge and the lovely Denise has set the theme and she has chosen “sporting marvels” so we would like to see all your images featuring sports of some sort. It doesn’t have to be a male themed card but it must include a sporting activity of some kind. Please remember to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your promarkers or aqua markers.

Our sponsor this week is Sugar Nellie stamps and the lucky winner will receive 4 Manga stamps.

We hope you will be able to join in with our challenge this week and we can’t wait to see what you create.

We are trying out Inlinkz this week (we know you’ll all be pleased) but if for some reason it disappears please leave a comment as usual. As you will appreciate commenting on each entry is very time consuming so the design team will now be following a commenting rota, so you will only receive 3 comments, but we’re sure you understand.

Hugs, Denise, Gina & DT x x

Week 101–2nd Anniversary!

Long post alert – you may want to grab a cuppa and some cake lol!

Woohoo everyone, we are super excited today as we are celebrating our 2nd anniversary.  Can you believe it’s been 2 years since we began this challenge blog?  We’ve had a fantastic time and it’s been wonderful to see our followers grow and the participation in our challenges remain, with many of your becoming regulars of our weekly challenges.  We would like to thank everyone who has made our challenge the success it is today – YOU!! 

Before we announce the challenge and all the amazing prizes up for grabs – yes prizes plural, we have some news for you.  This week is the last week for Team 1 as their 6 months is up and it’s time for team 2 to take over the reins.  So as it’s our anniversary we’ve decided to ask both teams to share their cards with you this week.  Unfortunately we’ve lost a member of team 1 so we have a brand new design team member to unveil and that is Lisa Nowacki from Wishcraft cards.  I’m sure many of you know Lisa and her wonderful work so I hope you will all welcome her to passion for promarkers. 

So onto this week’s challenge, which is a nice easy one for you “all the 2’s”.  Basically we want you to use two of things, i.e. 2 papers, 2 images, 2 colours, you get the drift.  Please can you tell us in your post what your “2’s” are.  Don’t forget to be eligible for our prizes this week you must use your promarkers or aqua markers.  As we have so many generous sponsors this week we are going to be very strict so please make sure you follow the theme. 

Here are the amazing prizes up for grabs:

** Letraset are offering 2 x stamping kits **

Have a wonderful week.
