Week 660–food and drink

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you had a great week last week.  Thank you for the gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘use a rubber (or clear) stamp’ challenge.  It was so lovely to have you join us 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 £15.00 voucher courtesy of Dies to Die For and also to see 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 ‘food and drink’.  Lisa M. doesn’t mind what you make this week as long as you include images of food, drink or both on your creations.  It can be as simple as a birthday cake, cup of coffee or even Christmas treats; whatever you choose remember you must include a hand coloured image to be eligible for our prize draw.  Easy peasy, so let’s 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 Polkadoodles who are offering one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store.  All of the DT have used images from Polkadoodles 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 659–use a rubber (or clear) stamp

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you had a great week last week and enjoyed our ‘use your favourite tool/embellishment’ challenge.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries; it was so lovely to have you join us 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 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 ‘use a rubber (or clear) stamp’.  This week Lisa G. wants you to forget about the digital images for one week and dig out those forgotten rubber stamps; if you don’t have any rubber stamps we will accept clear stamps but it has to be a physical stamp – no digis allowed.  We hope you will rise to the challenge and we see lots of entries.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Dies to Die For and they are offering one lucky winner a £15.00 voucher to spend in their online store.  Tracy has so many fantastic brands at amazing prices, including all the US brands we know and love.  Check out her sale pages too and grab a bargain.
