Week 661–hobbies/pastimes

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you had a great week last week and enjoyed our ‘food & drink’ 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 3 digi images courtesy of Polkadoodles and to see who Lisa M. has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Nat from Team 2, and she has given us the theme of ‘hobbies/pastimes’.  Nat would like to see your creations featuring hobbies and pastimes you (or whoever you are making your entry for) enjoys i.e. photography, reading, gardening etc.  Such an fun challenge, with so much possibility, and we can’t wait to see what you make.  The only rule we have is use your markers and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Crafty Sentiments Designs and they are offering one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store.  Most of the DT have used images from Crafty Sentiments Designs 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):

Onto the new challenge, which has been set by Lisa M. from Team 1, and she has given us the theme of ‘food and drink’.  Lisa M. doesn’t mind what you make this week as long as you include images of food, drink or both on your creations.  It can be as simple as a birthday cake, cup of coffee or even Christmas treats; whatever you choose remember you must include a hand coloured image to be eligible for our prize draw.  Easy peasy, so let’s see lots of entries.  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 Polkadoodles who are offering one lucky winner 3 digi images of their choice from their online store.  All of the DT have used images from Polkadoodles on their creations this week.
