Week 524–grandparents or older people

Happy New Year dear friends!  We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and are now looking forward to a happy and healthy 2020. I’m sure you were all good girls (and boys) and Santa brought you some lovely new crafty goodies to play with!  Unfortunately there seems to have been quite a lot of illness around this year, so if you were feeling under the weather during the holidays we hope you are starting to feel better now.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your support during 2019 and we hope you will continue to support our challenges in 2020.  On the topic of challenges we had a fantastic response to our month long Mega Christmas challenge and the whole of the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations.  Don’t forget to come back later to check out the exciting bit – finding out who the lucky winners are!  As we had multiple sponsors there will be lots of lucky winners so come back this evening and see if you are one of them!

Ok onto the new challenge, which has been chosen by Linda from Team 2 and she has chosen ‘for grandparents or older people’ – what an awesome challenge, don’t you agree?  As the title suggests Linda would like you create something for your grandparents or any older people.  There are some fun images around so I’m sure you will find this a simple challenge.  Remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card.  Please can you help us by stating which markers you have used on your creation i.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc.  Thanks x x

Our generous sponsor for our first challenge in 2020 is Dr Digi’s House of Stamps and they are offering one lucky winner 2 digi images of their choice from their online store. 

Sadly we are starting off the new year saying goodbye to Jacky from team 2 – we wish you well Jacky and thank you for all your gorgeous creations for us at PFP.

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 the their personal blogs).

A great start to the year from the DT.  Such wonderful inspiration for you! We hope you can join in with our challenge this week and we look forward to seeing what you create.  Don’t forget we are back to normal this week so Linda will be choosing her top 5 at the end of the challenge. 

Hugs, Denise, Gina & DT x x
