Week 384–in the pink

Good morning crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for all your entries for last week’s ‘something new’ challenge.  As always it was lovely to see all your wonderful entries and the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs.  Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing our lucky winner who will receive the £10.00 voucher courtesy of DigiStamp Boutique and we will also be finding out who Ali has chosen as her top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Donna from Team 2, and she has given us the fantastic theme of ‘in the pink’.  Donna wants you see lots of pink on your creations this week.  You can use other colours but the predominant colour must be pink.  We know how much you all love your girly creations so this is not really a challenge this week is it!!    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 Winsor & Newton (formerly 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

Our generous sponsor this week is Bugaboo stamps and they are offering one lucky winner 4 digis of their choice from their online store.  Their images are so much fun and so quirky and the DT have had great fun using some of their images on their cards this week.
