New DT members

Well you certainly kept myself and Gina busy with all your entries to our DT call.  We couldn’t believe how many applications we received, but it was really nice to know so many of you wanted to join our team.  It was such a difficult decision and we could have chosen at least 20 new members!!  However we were strict and kept to our original mission to choose just 4 new members.  We’re sorry if you’re name isn’t below as one of our new members but please don’t lose hope, when we’re looking again in the future we hope you will try again. 

Ok without any more waffling please welcome our new DT members:

** Jane Brown **

** Jane Millard **

** Jen Nelson **

** Lou Mac **

Congratulations ladies, we hope you enjoy working with us at PFP and we cannot wait to see your amazing work.  The newbies will start on 22nd May (which is a special challenge here at PFP) so look out for them.

Hugs, Denise, Gina & DT  x x

Week 147 - Theme

Good morning dear crafters. We hope you’ve had a good week and managed to survive the dreadful weather we’ve been experiencing. Definitely more like winter than spring but a perfect excuse to stay in your pj’s and craft!

Before we announce the brand new challenge we would like to say a big thank you for all your gorgeous entries to last week’s “cut it out” challenge – judging by the fantastic response we had you all certainly love your die cutting machines and dies. Don’t forget to check back later to find out who Nic has chosen as her top 5 passionista and also to see if you are our lucky winner of the £10.00 voucher courtesy of Joanna Sheen.

If you entered our DT call – please bear with us – we have been blown away by the number of people who have shown an interest to join our team !! It is going to take us a little while to narrow down that list to just 4 (oh my goodness how are we going to do it lol!) We will announce the new team members as soon as we possibly can. Unfortunately due to the vast number of applications we are unable to inform you if you are un-successful – I’m sure you understand.

Ok, onto this week’s brand new challenge which has been set by Vix and she has chosen “bright & light” – Vix would like to see either a brightly coloured image with light coloured papers or alternatively a lightly coloured image with bright papers – the choice is yours. Don’t forget to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letraset products (i.e. pro/flex/aqua/tria markers) and of course follow the theme.

We are delighted to welcome back Saturated Canary as our sponsor this week and Krista is offering the lucky winner 2 digi images from her online store.
