Week 817 - add some bling

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you so much for your gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘cool winter colours’ challenge.  It was lovely to see your wonderful entries and as always 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 voucher courtesy of RAM Stamps and we will also find out who Lorraine has chosen as her top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Elaine from Team 2 and she has given us the super easy theme of 'add some bling'. Elaine would simply like you to make a creation that includes some type of bling on it e.g. gems, stickles, glittery card, sequins etc.  At this time of year it is very easy to 'bling it up' so we hope to see lots of gorgeous entries.  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  Just remember your entry must include a hand-coloured image to be eligible for the prize draw; so grab your markers and have fun! 

Our generous sponsor this week is Clearly Besotted Stamps and they are offering one lucky winner a £15.00 voucher to spend in their online store.  

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 and see more views of their amazing makes this week):
