Week 747 - favourite colours

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘use a die’ challenge.  It was lovely to have so many of you join us 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 winner of the £15.00 voucher courtesy of Dies to Die For and also revealing who Sarah has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.  

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Nat from Team 2, and she has given us the fantastic theme of ‘favourite colours’.  Nat is being kind to you this week and has chosen a really simple challenge for you; you can make anything you like just let us know what your favourite colour combo is (or favourite at the moment, you know how fickle us crafters can be) and it’s always nice to find new colour combos that we might not of thought of isn’t it?   Obviously we know that our favourites can change from day to day and week to week so don’t worry you are allowed to enter more than one favourite. We hope you’ll have fun and can’t wait to see what you create this week.  Don't forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  The only rule we have is that you must have a hand coloured image on your creation.  So grab your markers, join in and have some fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Leann's World 101 and they are offering one lucky winner 2 digi images of their choice from their online store.  Most of the DT have used images from Leann's World 101 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):

Stay safe and sending our love to you all.
