Week 249 - Theme

Good morning dear crafters, I hope you all had a brilliant week and for those of you in the UK I hope you enjoyed the extra day off due to the Bank Holiday! Thank you all so much for your lovely messages and gorgeous entries to celebrate our 5th anniversary last week.  The DT had a fantastic time visiting your blogs and seeing all your wonderful creations for the “use your die cuts” challenge.  As we explained we won’t be choosing a top 5 for last week’s challenge but don’t forget to check back to see if you are one of our lucky winners, as we had lots of generous sponsors last week.    

Onto this week’s challenge which has been set by Marie from Team 1 and she has given us a lovely theme of “pearls and pins”.  Please remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card.  Don’t forget, as always, to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letraset products (i.e. promarkers, flex markers, aqua markers, tria markers, metallic markers or neon markers).

We have a lovely new sponsor this week – A Day For Daisies – who are generously offering one lucky winner a $12.00 gift card to spend in their online store. 

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).  Some of them used gorgeous images from our generous sponsor:
