Week 806 - 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 'animal friends' challenge. It was lovely to see all your entries and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your gorgeous creations. I’ll be announcing Lorraine'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 The Paper Shelter and they offered one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store. As always we used random.org and he chose:

Week 806 - animal friends

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week. Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘for a boy' challenge; it obviously wasn't your favourite challenge 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 £10.00 voucher courtesy of RAM Stamps and we will also find out who Wendy has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which was chosen by Lorraine from Team 1 and she has given us a theme of ‘animal friends'. Lorraine knows how much we all love our animals so she simply wants to see your cute critters (including birds) this week. It doesn’t have to be an animal image it could be animal themed patterned paper or an animal die-cut/embellishment as long as you also include a hand coloured image. Hopefully this will be a popular challenge and we can’t wait to see what you make.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun! Don’t forget you can enter 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 The Paper Shelter who are offering one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store. Most of the DT have used 'cozy winter wishes' image from The Paper Shelter 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):

Another week of wonderful inspiration from the DT!! We hope you can join in with our challenge this week and we look forward to seeing what you create. 

Stay safe and sending our love to you all.
