Week 790 - Winner & Top 5 Passionista

Hello again friends; we hope you’ve had a great day so far. We’re back to announce our lucky Winner and Top 5 Passionista for last week’s '4 legged friends' challenge. It was lovely to see your entries and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your gorgeous creations. I’ll be announcing my Top 5 Passionista (on behalf of Marlene) in a moment but firstly let’s find out who our lucky winner is!

For last week’s challenge we were sponsored by Polkadoodles and they offered one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store. As always we used random.org and he chose:

No. 18

Congratulations Wendy, what a pretty card.  The image is so sweet, your colouring is perfect.  Please email us at passionformarkerschallenge@gmail.com with your choice of images and we will arrange for them to be sent out to you.  We hope you will proudly display our winners badge on your blog:

Now onto the Top 5 Passionista and I had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations. It was a really tough decision and my shortlist wasn't very short at one point but after much deliberation here are my favourite 5:

Alexandra

Bettascrap

Ileana Artuffo

Silke

Wendy R.

Congratulations everyone, you can now proudly display the Top 5 Passionista blinkie on your blogs. If you need any help with this please email us at passionformarkerschallenge@gmail.com.

We hope you all have a wonderful week and find some time to join in with our current challenge 'let's get in shape' - full details in the post below.

Stay safe and keep on crafting.

Hugs, Denise, Gina and DT x x

Week 791 - let's get in shape

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘4 legged friends' challenge; as always the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and seeing your beautiful creations.  Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing our lucky winner who will win the 3 digi images courtesy of Polkadoodles and we will also find out who Marlene has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which was chosen by Kitty from Team 2 and she has given us a theme of ‘let's get in shape'.  Kitty doesn’t mind what you make this week as long as your card base is not a basic square or rectangle.  She would love to see any shapes such as circles, ovals, stars, whatever your creativity can think of.  Such a brilliant theme, don't you agree and we can’t wait to see what you make.  Just remember your entry must include a hand-coloured image to be eligible for the prize draw.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Leann's World 101 who are offering one lucky winner a prize of 2 digi images of their choice from their online store.  All the DT have used images from Leann's World 101 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):

(using Leann's World 101 image 'belly dancing Bella')
(using Leann's World 101 - 'roses') - not in the store at the moment

Another week of wonderful inspiration from the DT and so many different shaped cards!  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

Week 790 - 4 legged friends

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week and had a fun Bank Holiday weekend (in the UK at least). Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘special anniversary challenge - ATG'; as always the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and seeing your beautiful creations. Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing our lucky winners - yes multiple winners - who will win the amazing prizes offered by our very generous sponsors.  Just for this one week there will be no Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which was chosen by Marlene from Team 1 and she has given us a theme of ‘4 legged friends'. As the title suggests Marlene would like you to simply use images of things that have 4 legs – simples!  We don’t have to see all four legs in the image but we are only accepting animals with 4 legs i.e. dogs, cats, bears, monkeys etc.  Please remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card but whatever you make 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 Polkadoodles who are offering one lucky winner a prize of 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):
(using Polkadoodles image 'Bella bear bouquet'
(using Polkadoodles image 'surprise cake - Horace & Boo')
(using Polkadoodles image 'Scruff dog with heart cookies')
(using Polkadoodles image 'Scruff the dog gardening')

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.
