Week 330–Clean & Simple (CAS)

Good morning dear crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for all your gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘flower power’ challenge.  You certainly kept the DT busy and as always they had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations.  Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing our 2 lucky winners, one who will receive the 6 pack of neon markers courtesy of Letraset and the other who will win the €10.00 voucher courtesy of Michele R Designs.  We will also be finding out who Marie has chosen as her top 5 Passionista.

Before we announce the new challenge we have a DT update to share with you.  As I mentioned previously Lotta has stepped down from the DT but that means we have a new DT member joining team 2 from 9th February – please give a warm welcome to Karen – check out her wonderful blog, you won’t be disappointed. 

Onto the new challenge, which was originally set by Lotta from Team 2.  However as Lotta has now stepped down from the DT I (Denise) will be taking over her challenge this week.  Her brilliant theme this week is  “Clean & Simple (CAS)”.  We would like you to simply make your image your focus of your card using very few (none if you can manage it) embellishments at all.  Please remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card.  As always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letrasetproducts (promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, aqua markers or metallic markers) and of course follow the theme.  Please can you help us by stating which Letraset products you have used on your creation i.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc.  Thanks x x

Our generous sponsor this week is LC Designs (formerly Little Claire Designs) who are offering one lucky winner 6 digi images of their choice.

Before we announce the new challenge we have a couple of DT updates to share with you.  Kelly has stepped down from the DT.  She had already decided to step down when we heard the heartbreaking news that her husband had passed away and we all send our heartfelt condolences to her and her family.  Also Lotta has decided to step down due to family commitments.  On a happier note we have a new DT member – please give a warm welcome to Elaine – check out her wonderful blog, you won’t be disappointed.  Huny (our GDT) from the last few months is also staying on with us for the next few challenges. 

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Lorraine C. from Team 2 and she has given us the brilliant theme of “fantasy”.  Lorraine C. would like you to simply use a fantasy type image i.e. fairies, dragons, mermaids, etc.  Please remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card.  As always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letraset products (promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, aqua markers or metallic markers) and of course follow the theme.  Please can you help us by stating which Letraset products you have used on your creation i.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc.  Thanks x x
