Week 495–Winner & Top 5 Passionista

Hello again friends, apologies for the very late post tonight; I went to visit friends in their new home and then time just got away from me!  So later than normal I’m back to announce our lucky winner and top 5 passionista for last week’s “add pearls and/or gems” challenge.  It was fantastic to see your lovely entries and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your gorgeous creations.  We’ll be announcing Linda’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 Cowling & Wilcox who offered one lucky winner a 6 pack of Promarkers (skin tones set 1).  As always we used random.org and he chose:

No. 3

Congratulations Huny, your card is adorable.  The image is so sweet and your colouring is perfect.  Please email us at promarkerchallenge@gmx.com with your full address and we will arrange for you to receive your prize.

Now onto the top 5 passionista and Linda had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations.  She told me that it was unbelievably hard to pick a Top 5 this week and it makes her want to cry to leave out so many lovely cards!  After much deliberation here are her favourite 5:

Week 495–add gems and/or pearls

Good morning lovely crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week. We were lucky in the UK to have another Bank Holiday yesterday so I hope you all enjoyed the extra day off from work! Thank you for all your gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘special anniversary challenge’ where our theme was anything goes.  We were delighted to see lots of lovely 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 7 lucky winners!

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Linda from Team 2 and she has given us the theme of ‘add gems and/or pearls’.  As the title suggests Linda simply wants you to add gems, pearls or both to your creations this week.  So easy right? Remember you can enter using any type of creation but 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). Please can you help us by stating which products you have used on your creation i.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc. Thanks x x
