Hello again crafters, we’re back to announce the lucky winner and top 5 passionista for last week’s “add sparkle” challenge.  It was fantastic to see so many entries, even more than last week which is wonderful.  The DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your gorgeous sparkly creations.  We’ll be announcing Pinky’s top 5 passionista in a minute but firstly let’s find out who the lucky winner is!

The winner of last week’s challenge will receive 1 stamp of their choice courtesy of Whiff of Joy stamps and to be fair we used random.org as always to choose our winner (there were 91 linked entries and 1 email entry) and that is:

No. 8

Gorgeous card Rachel.  I love the beautiful image and colour scheme.  Please email us and we will arrange for you to receive your prize. 

Now onto Pinky’s top 5 passionista and she was so pleased to see so many entries for her challenge but at the same time this made her decision so much harder as she could have chosen so many more.  However after much deliberation here are her favourite 5:

Week 184 - Theme

Good morning dear crafters.  Can you believe we are in February already – what happened to January lol!  We hope you all had a good week last week and are now ready for our brand new challenge.  Before you announce the details we would like to say a BIG thank you for all your gorgeous entries for last week’s “add sparkle” challenge.  We were delighted to see so many entries once again and the DT had a fantastic time visiting your blogs.  Please call back later to find out who Pinky has chosen as her top 5 passionista and also to see who the lucky winner of the stamp from Whiff of Joy stamps will be. 

Onto this week’s challenge and it is the turn of Edna from Team 1 to set the theme and she has chosen “boys and their toys”.  Now I know male cards are not always our favourite cards to make but they are needed sometimes and if you just look at our DT cards this week you will see how amazing they can be too.  You just need to be a little bit more imaginative with your embellishments (buttons, stars, brads and gems are all well received by my boys).  Don’t forget to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letraset products (i.e. promarkers, aqua markers, flex markers, tria markers, metallic markers or neon markers) and of course follow the theme. 

Our generous sponsor this week is Letraset and they are offering 2 packs of Promarker collectors sets – so that means 2 winners this week!!

The DT have worked their magic once again this week and created amazing samples for your inspiration (please click on their names to visit their personal blogs):

Week 183 - Theme

Good morning dear crafters.  We hope you had a good week last week and thankfully most of us have seen the snow disappear at long last.  Weren’t the storms crazy on the weekend, it literally lit up the sky in South Wales and the thunder was so loud!  I hope that if you have been affected by any flooding that it passes really quickly and doesn’t leave any lasting damage. 

Before we announce the details of the brand new challenge we would like to say a huge thank you for all your wonderful entries into last week’s “favourite colour combo”.  The DT had a fantastic time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations.  It was certainly a popular challenge and it was really lovely to see some many entries.  Don’t forget to check back later to find out who Nic has chosen as her top 5 passionista and also to find out who the lucky winner of the 7 digis courtesy of Bugaboo stamps will be.

Ok onto this week’s challenge, which has been set by Pinky from Team 2 and she has chosen “add sparkle” which I think will prove equally as popular this week.  You can add your sparkle in lots of different ways i.e. gems, glitter, stickles, glittered backing papers etc.  I think it’s going to be a very girly week this week lol!  As always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letraset products (i.e. promarkers, flex markers, aqua markers, metallic markers, neon markers or tria markers) and of course follow the theme.

Our generous sponsor this week is Whiff of Joy stamps and they are offering a prize of 1 stamp of the winner’s choice.
