Keeping you in suspense!

Evening crafters, I know I’m supposed to be announcing the winner’s from last week’s special challenge but I’m really sorry but I’m going to keep you in suspense for one more night.  I will be announcing all the lucky winners for our 3rd birthday challenge tomorrow evening.  I’ve had a hectic family night and rather than rush to do it now I will do it early evening tomorrow.  I’m sure you can manage to wait one more night, especially if you’re one of our lucky winners lol!

Thanks for being so patient and understanding.

Hugs, Denise x

Week 151–inspiration photo

Good morning dear crafters.  Wow what fantastic number of entries to last week’s “birthday” challenge.  Thank you all so much for celebrating our 3rd birthday with us.  It was wonderful to read your lovely comments and we’re so glad that a lot of you have been with us since the beginning.  The DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and there were so many gorgeous entries for us to drool over.  Don’t forget to check back later to find out if you are one of our many winners.  We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our generous sponsors who made our celebrations go off with a big bang! 

Before we announce the brand new challenge we would like to welcome a new member to Team 2 and her name is Donna and she was one of our short-listed entries from the last DT call.  As we’ve had a space open up in Team we immediately thought of Donna.  Please take a moment to pop over to her blog and give her a lovely welcome.  She will start next week when Team 2 share their cards with you. 

Onto this week’s challenge and the lovely Debs has chosen to give us an Olympics themed inspiration photo to work with, which is very on topic at the moment!  Here is her photo:

You can use the rings themselves, a sporty theme or even just the colours, it’s entirely up to you.  As always you must use your Letraset products (i.e. pro, flex, aqua or tria markers) to be eligible for the prize draw and of course follow the theme.

Our sponsor this week is Joanna Sheen and she is offering a £10.00 voucher to spend in her online store.  We are so honoured that Joanna is one of our regular sponsors and we are so grateful of her ongoing support of our challenge.
