Week 653–say it with flowers

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you had a great week last week and enjoyed our ‘dies and/or punches’ challenge.  Thank you for your gorgeous entries; it was so lovely to have you join us and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations.  Don’t forget to pop back later to find out who won the 2 digi images courtesy of All Dressed Up stamps and to see who Marie has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Karen from Team 2, and she has given us the theme of ‘say it with flowers’.  This week Karen would like to see flowers on your creations somewhere.  It can be as simple as a floral image, a die cut flower, floral background paper, or even flower embellishments (as long as there is also a hand-coloured element).  Certainly lots of scope with this challenge and we cannot wait to see what you make.  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card. The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Leann’s World 101 and they are offering one lucky winner 2 digi images of their choice from their online store.  Most of the DT have used images from Leann’s World 101 on their creations this week.

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):

Week 652–dies and/or punches

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you had a great week last week.  Thank you for the gorgeous entries for last week’s ‘let’s have some pink’ challenge. It was so lovely to have you join us and as always the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing creations.  Don’t forget to pop back later to find out who won the 3 digi images courtesy of Crafty Sentiments Designs and also to see who Elaine has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Marie from Team 1, and she has given us the theme of ‘dies and/or punches’.  Marie doesn’t mind what you make this week, as long as you include some die cutting or punched pieces on your creations.  This is always a very popular challenge – I know I can’t make a card anymore without reaching for the dies – so hopefully this week’s challenge will have lots of entries.  Just remember your entry must include a hand-coloured image also.  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is All Dressed Up stamps who are offering one lucky winner 2 digi images of their choice from their online store.  Most of the DT have used images from All Dressed Up stamps on their creations this week.
