Week 219 - Theme

Good morning dear crafters, I hope you all had a fantastic week last week. Thank you for all your entries to last week’s “lots of legs” challenge. It was lovely to see so many gorgeous entries once again and the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs. Don’t forget to check back later to find out who Andie has chosen as her top 5 passionista and also to see if you are the lucky winner of the 6 pack of Flex Markers courtesy of Letraset.

Onto this week’s challenge which has been set by Eileen from Team 1 and she has chosen “snow is falling” – Eileen thought that even if you hadn’t started your cards for Christmas yet, this week’s challenge may kick start your production!! Don’t forget, as always, to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letraset products (i.e. promarkers, flex markers, aqua markers, tria markers, metallic markers or neon markers) and of course follow the theme.

Our generous sponsor this week is Lili of the Valley and one lucky winner will receive a £10.00 voucher to spend in their online store.

The design team have worked their magic once again this week and have created gorgeous cards to inspire you (please click on their names to visit their personal blogs):
