Week 598–CAS (clean & simple)

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you had a great week last week.  Oh dear our ‘keep it slim’ challenge didn’t really grab you last week but we are grateful for the gorgeous entries we did have and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations.  Don’t forget to pop back later to find out who won the 2 digi images courtesy of Dr Digi’s House of Stamps and also who Lisa G. has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Lisa M. from Team 1, and she has given us the theme of ‘CAS’.  Lisa doesn’t mind what you make this week, as long as it is clean and simple.  This is Lisa’s favourite style of card and I know it is sometimes difficult to step away from all the embellishments but the effect is very striking. We hope this week’s challenge is more appealing so hopefully we can see lots of entries.  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Bugaboo stamps and they are offering one lucky winner a $12 voucher to spend in their on line store.  Most of the DT have used images from Bugaboo stamps on their creations this week.

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):

Week 597–keep it slim

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for all your gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘summer colours’ challenge.  We were delighted to see lots of lovely entries and as always the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and seeing your beautiful creations.  Please pop back later to find out our lucky winner of the 2 images courtesy of All Dressed Up stamps and to see who Julie has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Lisa G. from Team 2 and she has given us the theme of ‘keep it slim’.   Lisa knows how popular the slimline shape card has become over the last few months and she would love to see how you decorate them this week; if you’ve never made one before why not step out of your comfort zone and take the plunge.  We will allow mini slimline too if that’s your preferred size.  There is so much more scope on a slimline card so we hope you’ll have fun and can’t wait to see what you create.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Dr Digi’s House of Stamps who are offering one lucky winner a prize of 2 digi images from their online store.  Most of the DT have used images from Dr Digi’s HOS on their creations this week.

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):
