Week 492 - feminine

Good morning lovely crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week. We were lucky in the UK to have another Bank Holiday yesterday so I hope you all enjoyed the extra day off from work!  Thank you for all your gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘lots of layers’ challenge; as always it was lovely to see your wonderful creations and the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs. Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing our lucky winner who will receive the 2 digi images courtesy of Lee Holland Designs and we will also be finding out who Lisa has chosen as her top 5 passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Kitty from Team 2 and she has given us the theme of ‘feminine’.  As the title suggests Kitty wants you to use a feminine image and make your creations as girly and pretty as possible!!  So easy right? Remember you can enter using any type of creation but as always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Winsor & Newton (formerly Letraset) products (promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, aqua markers or metallic markers). Please can you help us by stating which products you have used on your creation i.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc. Thanks x x

Sadly we don’t have a sponsor this week, so I will be offering one lucky winner a 6 pack of promarkers of their choice (from the Cowling & Wilcox store). 

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):

Kitty

Linda

Lorraine C.

Nat

Elaine

Jacky

Jacky is poorly so no card this week.

Karen

Another week of wonderful inspiration from the DT!! We hope you can join in with our challenge this week and we look forward to seeing what you create.

Hugs, Denise, Gina & DT x x
