Week 750 - animal magic

Good morning lovely crafters; we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week's 'Christmas in July' challenge.  It was lovely to have you join us and as always the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and seeing your beautiful creations.  Don’t forget to pop back later to find out who won the 3 digi images courtesy of Sheepski Designs and also who Wendy has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Lorraine from Team 1, and she has given us the theme of ‘animal magic'.  Lorraine would like to see animals (including birds) on your creations this week.  It doesn’t have to be an animal image (as long as there is a hand coloured image on your creation) it could be animal themed patterned paper or an animal die-cut or embellishment; as long as we see an animal somewhere on your creation. We can’t wait to see what you make. Don't forget you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card but whatever you make please remember you must include a hand coloured image to be eligible for our prize draw.  So come on, grab your markers, and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Hetty Clare and she is offering one lucky winner 2 digi images of their choice from her online store.  Most of the DT have used images from Hetty Clare on their cards 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):

Lorraine

is taking an extended break but she will be back in November

Marie

No card - not feeling too good this week

Marlene

Sarah

Sue

Lisa

*As Lorraine is not taking part this week I will be choosing the Top 5 Passionista on her behalf.

Another week of wonderful inspiration from the DT!! We hope you can join in with our challenge this week and we look forward to seeing what you create.

Stay safe and sending our love to you all.

Hugs, Denise, Gina and DT x x
