Week 720 - new beginnings

Good morning and welcome back to our lovely crafters; we can’t wait to share our first challenge of 2024.  We hope you’ve all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year and managed to fit in some crafting over the holiday period.  The last month has just whizzed by hasn’t it!  We would like to say a big thank you for all your support in 2023 and we hope you will continue to support us in 2024.  We were blown away by all your lovely entries for our Mega Christmas challenge; it was amazing to see them all and as always the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and seeing your creations.  Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing all of our lucky winners – how exciting!

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Linda from Team 2, and she has given us the very appropriate theme of ‘new beginnings’.  As the title suggests Linda wants to see something new on your creations this week; i.e. new house, new baby, new job etc.  We will also accept using new crafty goodies (please tell us what they are so we can go shopping).  I don’t think it can get any easier than that to start us off this year.  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  So pull out your favourite markers and get colouring. 

Our generous sponsor this week is Uniko Stamps and the lovely Bev is offering one lucky winner 1 product of their choice from her online store (can be a stamp, stencil, die - any value).

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):

Linda

Nat

Wendy

Elaine

Karen

Kitty

No card this week

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.

Don’t forget to pop back later to see if you are one of our lucky winners from our Mega Christmas challenge; as we have lots of winners there will be no top 5, but this will re-start again this week with Linda's challenge.  

Stay safe and sending our love to you all.

Hugs, Denise, Gina and DT x x

Week 179 - Theme

Happy New Year dear crafters.  We trust you all had a very Merry Christmas and are now looking forward to a happy and healthy 2013.  However I know there was quite a lot of illness around this year, so hopefully if you were feeling under the weather during the holidays you are starting to feel better now. 

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your support during 2012 and we hope you will continue to support our challenges in 2013.  On the topic of challenges we had a brilliant response to our month long Mega Christmas challenge and the whole of the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations.  Don’t forget to come back later to check out the exciting bit – finding out who the lucky winners are!  As we had multiple sponsors there will be lots of lucky winners so come back this evening and see if you are one of them!

Before we announce the first challenge of the brand new year we have some announcements regarding the DT.  Unfortunately we are saying goodbye to Anja from Team 2 and we would like to thank her for all her gorgeous creations for us and wish her well in the future.  On a happier note we have two new DT members joining us in January! 

Firstly we have CATHY and she will be joining Team 1 on 8th January 2013

and

 

we have FRIDA and she will be joining Team 2 on 15th January 2013

 

The new girls will be joining us in the next few weeks but of course you can welcome them straight away!  I’m sure they will appreciate your comments.

 

Ok onto the new challenge, which has been chosen by Kim from Team 2.  As it’s a brand new year she has given us a theme of “new beginnings”,  i.e. new baby, new job, new home etc.  As always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letraset products (promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, aqua markers or metallic markers) and of course follow the theme.

 

Our sponsor this week is the ever generous Letraset and they are offering a prize of a New Promarker Collectors set.

 

The design team are back and refreshed after their little break and they have created amazing cards for your inspiration (as always click on their names to visit their personal blogs):

Kim (who made 2 cards!)

one for new baby

 

 

and one to celebrate a new Canadian citizen

 

 

Nat – new baby

 

 

Pinky – new home

 

 

Andie – new baby

 

 

Eileen – new job

 

 

Jane B. – new puppy

 

Jen – new job

 

 

and finally Julie from Team 1 got a little mixed up and made a card by mistake but it was too cute not to share

 

 

Stunning cards as always girls and I’m sure you cannot failed to be inspired to join in.  We cannot wait to see what you create and look forward to visiting your blogs.

 

Have a great week (but don’t forget to pop back later).

 

Hugs, Denise, Gina & DT x x
