Week 152 - Theme

Good morning dear crafters. We’re hope you’ve all had a wonderful week and especially enjoyed your long Bank Holiday weekend, although I can’t believe it’s almost over. Even though the weather has been typical for a Bank Holiday I hope you all managed to have your street parties/outdoor activities you may have had planned. Before we announce the new challenge we would like to say thanks for all your amazing entries to last week’s “Olympic Rings/Inspiration Photo” challenge. There were so many gorgeous cards for the DT to drool over once again! Don’t forget to check back later and find out who Debs has chosen as her top 5 passionista and also to see if you are the lucky winner of the £10.00 voucher courtesy of Joanna Sheen.

Onto this week’s challenge and Andie has given us a very apt colour theme of “red, white and blue” this week. You can make whatever you like, it doesn’t have to be Jubilee/Queen related! Please remember to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letraset products (i.e. pro, flex, aqua, metallic or tria markers) and of course follow the theme.

Our sponsor this week is Letraset and one lucky winner will receive one of their Promarker Stamping Kits.

The design team have created amazing samples as always for your inspiration (please click on their names to visit their personal blogs):

Gorgeous cards as always I’m sure you’ll agree. We hope you can join in with our challenge this week and we look forward to seeing what you create.

Keeping you in suspense!

Evening crafters, I know I’m supposed to be announcing the winner’s from last week’s special challenge but I’m really sorry but I’m going to keep you in suspense for one more night.  I will be announcing all the lucky winners for our 3rd birthday challenge tomorrow evening.  I’ve had a hectic family night and rather than rush to do it now I will do it early evening tomorrow.  I’m sure you can manage to wait one more night, especially if you’re one of our lucky winners lol!

Thanks for being so patient and understanding.

Hugs, Denise x

Week 151–inspiration photo

Good morning dear crafters.  Wow what fantastic number of entries to last week’s “birthday” challenge.  Thank you all so much for celebrating our 3rd birthday with us.  It was wonderful to read your lovely comments and we’re so glad that a lot of you have been with us since the beginning.  The DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and there were so many gorgeous entries for us to drool over.  Don’t forget to check back later to find out if you are one of our many winners.  We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our generous sponsors who made our celebrations go off with a big bang! 

Before we announce the brand new challenge we would like to welcome a new member to Team 2 and her name is Donna and she was one of our short-listed entries from the last DT call.  As we’ve had a space open up in Team we immediately thought of Donna.  Please take a moment to pop over to her blog and give her a lovely welcome.  She will start next week when Team 2 share their cards with you. 

Onto this week’s challenge and the lovely Debs has chosen to give us an Olympics themed inspiration photo to work with, which is very on topic at the moment!  Here is her photo:

You can use the rings themselves, a sporty theme or even just the colours, it’s entirely up to you.  As always you must use your Letraset products (i.e. pro, flex, aqua or tria markers) to be eligible for the prize draw and of course follow the theme.

Our sponsor this week is Joanna Sheen and she is offering a £10.00 voucher to spend in her online store.  We are so honoured that Joanna is one of our regular sponsors and we are so grateful of her ongoing support of our challenge.
