Week 229 - Theme

Happy New Year dear crafters.  We trust you all had a very Merry Christmas and are now looking forward to a happy and healthy 2014. However I know there was quite a lot of illness around this year, so hopefully if you were feeling under the weather during the holidays you are starting to feel better now.  I hope I’m not the only one who thinks the last 4 weeks have flown by……what happened to December lol!

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your support during 2013 and we hope you will continue to support our challenges in 2014.  On the topic of challenges we had a brilliant 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 Kelly from Team 2 and she has given us a theme of “clean and simple”.  Basically we want you to make the image the star of your card this week and keep the embellishments to a minimum.  As always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letraset products (promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, aqua markers or metallic markers) and of course follow the theme.

We are delighted to introduce a brand new sponsor to PFP this year - Sassy Studio Designs – I know a lot of you will have already seen and purchased their amazing digi images but if not you must check them out.  They are offering one lucky winner a prize of 4 digi images of their choice. 

The design team are back and refreshed after their little break and they have created amazing cards for your inspiration (as always click on their names to visit their personal blogs):

Stunning cards as always girls and I’m sure you cannot failed to be inspired to join in.  We cannot wait to see what you create and look forward to visiting your blogs.
