Week 78 - Theme

Good morning everyone.  We hope you’ve had another good week and are raring to go with our new challenge.  Wow wasn’t it really frosty yesterday, I had to clear the car windscreen before I could drive off – but at least it’s better than all the rain we had last week lol!  Enough waffling and let’s get on with what you really came here for!  We had lots of gorgeous cards for Julie’s ‘colours of old photographs’ challenge last week and even though it was a tricky one you all rose to the occasion.  Please call back later to find out who Julie has chosen as her top 5 passionista.  We will also be announcing the winner of the £10.00 voucher courtesy of The Secret Crafter

Onto this week’s challenge which has been set by Sue C and she has chosen “stitching and distressing” (your stitching can be real or faux it’s entirely up to you).  Don’t forget to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your promarkers or aqua markers.

Our sponsor this week is Stampeezee and the lucky winner will receive a £10.00 voucher to spend in their online store.

Week 40 – colour combo & theme

Well the week’s are just flying by aren’t they? It only seems like yesterday I was writing last week’s post!! The DT would like to say a huge thank you for all the wonderful entries to our ‘buttons and bows’ theme last week – Sue is definitely going to have a hard time choosing just 5 from all the gorgeous cards submitted. Please check back later to find out who has won the 5 pack of promarkers donated by Letraset and who Sue has picked as her top 5 passionista.

This week’s theme has been chosen by our GDT Tracy and she would like you to use the colours tulip yellow and baby pink and include stitching on your projects. You can dig out your sewing machines or even just add some faux stitching – it’s entirely up to you! Don’t forget you can use other colours of promarkers but the challenge colours must the predominant ones on your image.

Our sponsor this week is Craft Obsessions and one lucky winner will receive this gorgeous 8x8 album:

There will be another amazing tutorial on the Weekend Workshop on Friday so please drop by and check it out.

We are giving Mr Linky another try this week – let’s hope he behaves himself, as we know this makes life easier for you when linking your cards. If he is a good boy he may be able to stay permanently!!

Hugs, Denise, Gina & DT x x
