Week 771 - 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 'for the girls' challenge.  It was lovely to see so many entries and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your gorgeous creations.  I’ll be announcing Sarah'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:

No. 18

Jane Savage

Congratulations Jane, what an adorably decorated gift bag.  The image is super cute and your colouring is perfect. Please email us at passionformarkerschallenge@gmail.com and let us know which images you would like and we will arrange for them to be sent to you. We hope you will proudly display our winners badge on your blog:

Now onto the Top 5 Passionista and Sarah had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations. It was a really tough decision but after much deliberation here are her favourite 5:

Chris

Gale K.

Jenimc

Miss Lorraine V. Lowe

Nancy E. 

Congratulations everyone, you can now proudly display the Top 5 Passionista blinkie on your blogs. If you need any help with this please email us at passionformarkerschallenge@gmail.com.

Unfortunately we have had to redraw some more winners as the originally chosen winners did not contact us to claim their prizes.  For last week's challenge we had a £15.00 voucher courtesy of Clearly Besotted Stamps and our re-drawn winner is:

No. 2

MeSi

Also two of our redrawn winners for the Mega Christmas challenge did not contact us to claim their prizes so we have re-drawn another two winners:

For the Leann's World 101 prize of 2 digi images our 2nd drawn winner is:

** No. 77 - Michelle L. **

For the RAM Stamps prize of a £10.00 voucher our 2nd redrawn winner is:

Week 771 - for the girls

Good morning lovely crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for all your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘include an insect’ challenge.  It was lovely to see your entries and 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 £15.00 voucher courtesy of Clearly Besotted Stamps and we will also find out who I have chosen (on behalf of Linda) as my Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has be chosen by Sarah from Team 1 and she has given us a theme of ‘for the girls’.  Sarah would like you to make something for the girls in your life.  It can be for a baby girl, a child, a teenager or a lady.  It’s up to you what you make as long as it’s suitable for a female.  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card although you do have to include a hand coloured image; so grab your favourite markers and get colouring.  

Our generous sponsor this week is The Paper Shelter who are offering one lucky winner a prize of 3 digi images of their choice.  There are so many gorgeous digis in their store you will be spoilt for choice.  Most of the DT have used the 'vintage Amy' 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):

Lorraine

Marlene 

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.
