Week 444–gems and/or pearls

Good morning lovely crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘inspiration photo’ challenge.  It was lovely to see your entries (sadly not as many as we had hoped) but 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 Time for Tea Designs and we will also find out who Shelly has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Linda from Team 2, and she has given us the lovely theme of ‘gems and/or pearls’.  As the title suggests Linda doesn’t mind what you make this week as long as you have some gems or pearls (or both) on it.  Now we know how much crafters love bling so I’m sure this is going to be an easy challenge for you all.  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 Ppinkydolls and they are offering one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store.  Their images are cute so why not pop over to their store and check them out.  Some of DT were lucky enough to use images from Ppinkydolls 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):

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Donna from Team 2, and as this weekend will be Mother’s Day in the UK she has given us the very appropriate theme of ‘only girls allowed’.  As the title suggests Donna would like you to make something for a girl/woman.  We appreciate that sadly not everyone is lucky enough to still have their mums with them so any female inspired creation will be accepted.   We can’t wait to see all your girly makes this week!  Unfortunately Donna is still not well enough to re-join the challenge so I will be choosing the top 5 passionista on her behalf.  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

Good morning lovely crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘pretty pastels’ challenge.  As always it was lovely to see your wonderful creations and 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 win the $6.00 voucher courtesy of Little Miss Muffet stamps and we will also be finding out who Lisa has chosen as her top 5 passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Kitty from Team 2, and she has given us the fantastic theme of ‘monochrome’ (for those of you unsure what that means the definition is ‘a photograph or picture developed or executed in black and white or in varying tones of only one colour’).  So in other words Kitty would like you to create something using predominantly shades of one colour.  You can of course use skin/hair colours and accent colours but we want your creation to be basically shades of one colour.  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 Letraset products you have used on your creation I.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc.  Thanks x x
