Week 689–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 ‘layer it up’ challenge.  We had some really lovely entries and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your gorgeous creations.  I’ll be announcing Marie’s Top 5 Passionista in a moment but firstly let’s find out who our lucky winner is!

For last week’s challenge we were sponsored by Jan’s Digital Stamps and they offered one lucky winner a $6.00 voucher to spend in their online store.  As always we used random.org and he chose:

Week 689–layer it up

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘use a cute character’ challenge.  It was lovely to to have you join us and 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 Elaine has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Marie from Team 1, and she has given us the fantastic theme of ‘layer it up’.  Marie wants you to use as many layers on your card as you like, the more the merrier!  Apart from the obvious multiple layers of paper option you could use a stamp that features an image of something layered up like a cake or perhaps a layered die cut. No one-layer, CAS cards allowed this week, sorry!  Remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card.  So just grab your markers, join in and have some fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is new to us this year – Jan’s Digi Stamps - and they are offering one lucky winner a $6.00 voucher to spend in their online store.  All of the DT have used images from Jan’s Digi 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):

Stay safe and sending our love to you all.
