Week 423–Winner & Top 5 Passionista

Hello again friends, I’m back to announce our lucky winner and top 5 passionista for last week’s “use your favourite colours” challenge.  It was a popular challenge and it was fantastic to see so many of your lovely entries.  As always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your gorgeous creations.  We’ll be announcing Karen’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 Lemon Shortbread who offered one lucky winner 3 digis of their choice from their online store.  As always we used random.org and he chose:

No. 7

NannaConnie

Congratulations Connie, such a gorgeous card.  I love the adorable image and colouring is perfect.  Please email us at promarkerchallenge@gmx.com and we will arrange for you to receive your prize.

Now onto the top 5 passionista and Karen had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations.  She had a really tough decision this week but after much deliberation here are her favourite 5:

Congratulations ladies, you can now proudly display the top 5 passionista blinkie on your blogs.  If you need any help with this please email us.

Unfortunately last week’s winner did not contact us to claim their prize so we have re-drawn another winner.  The prize up for grabs was a £10.00 voucher courtesy of DigiStamp Boutique and using random.org our re-drawn winner is:

No. 16

Marina

Congratulations Marina, such a super cute card.  I love the adorable image and your colouring is perfect.  Please email us at promarkerchallenge@gmx.com and we will arrange for you to receive your prize.

Hugs, Denise, Gina & DT x x

Week 423–use your favourite colours

Good morning lovely crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas’ challenge.  It was a popular challenge and it was lovely to see so many of your wonderful creations.  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 £10.00 voucher courtesy of DigiStamp Boutique and we will also find out who Lisa has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista. 

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Karen from Team 2, and she has given us the very easy and lovely theme of ‘use your favourite colours’.   As the title suggests Karen doesn’t mind what you make this week as long as you use your favourite colour schemes.  Obviously we know that this can change from day-to-day so just use your current favourite!  We’re always on the look out for different colour schemes so please can you tell us your favourite colours in your blog post?  Remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card.  As always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Winsor & Newton (formerly Letraset) products (promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, aqua markers or metallic markers) and of course follow the theme.  Please can you help us by stating which products you have used on your creation I.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc.  Thanks x x

Our generous sponsor this week is Lemon Shortbread and they are offering one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store.  Their images are so beautiful so why not pop over to their store and check them out. The DT were lucky enough to use images from Lemon Shortbread 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 and see more views of their amazing makes this week):

Hugs, Denise, Gina & DT x x
