Week 844 - transport

Good morning dear crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week and for all of you in the UK I hope the temperatures are now returning to normal and you are feeling cooler.  It's definitely better here and I'm not melting any more lol! Thank you so much for your gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘add flowers’ 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 3 digi images courtesy of Polkadoodles and we will also find out who Kitty has chosen as her top 5 Passionista.  

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Sue from Team 1 and she has given us the fun theme of “transport”.  Sue would like you to create something with some form of transport on it i.e. car, bus, bike, aeroplane, horse, you get the idea!.  Hopefully this will be a popular challenge and we can’t wait to see what you make.  Please remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card but whatever you make you must use your markers and include a hand coloured image to be eligible for our prize draw.  So join in and have some fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is RAM Stamps and Rachelle is offering one lucky winner a prize of a £10 voucher to spend in her online store.  All of the DT have used images from RAM 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.
