Week 658–use your favourite tool/product or embellishment

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you had a great week last week.  Thank you for the gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘a night on the town’ challenge. Unfortunately it failed to spark your interest but the entries we did have were lovely and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations.  Don’t forget to pop back later to find out who won the 3 digi images courtesy of Sheepski Designs.  If the entries stay below 5 then you will all be awarded the Top 5 Passionista badge and Linda will have a week off!

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Julie from Team 1, and she has given us the theme of ‘use your favourite tool/product or embellishment’.  Julie has given you a free reign for her challenge this week.  She just wants you to use any of your favourites on your creations; please let us know what your favourite is in your post please. You must also include a hand coloured image as always to be eligible for our prize draw.  Easy peasy, so let’s see lots of entries.  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Dr Digi’s House of Stamps who are offering one lucky winner 2 digi images of their choice from their online store.  Most of the DT have used images from Dr Digi’s HOS 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):
