Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! We are full of goodies over here - I am sure I am twice the size now! I won't be able to reach passed my belly to get to my crafting!
Welcome to the second week of our challenge. Just a reminder...this is a nice easy one to get us over Christmas, and its to use ANY SENTIMENT on your project.
Just a little update on the DT call...all successful peeps have been contacted - I have to say, it was very, very close for a couple of people and we would have taken more if we could have done! Thanks so much to those who tried out - whether you got in this time or not. Please, if you didn't get in this time, don't feel bad - we try to have a balanced team stylewise and sometimes we just have too many people with the same style! :)
We will hopefully, be unveiling the new DT next week - we are just waiting to hear back from a few people. Please, if you entered, check your emails and blogs, in case there is a message for you!
This challenge will run until Tuesday, Jan 1st. Good Luck!

We are working through the DT applicants and will be contacting our wonderful new peeps asap. It has been a really, really tough decision! When we have our final line up, we will introduce them to you all!
For this challenge we are so excited to have My Heart Pieces as our sponsor.
Here is a little bit about them...
Welcome to my art world. My art is inspired by fairy tale and fantasy, but I draw all type of Digi images. All images are hand drawn and scan so it preserve its originality.
OK, now onto the challenge. We want to see Anything with a sentiment! Couldn't get very much more open - we thought we would have a nice easy one this time!
Here are the beautiful creations from Team A. Stop by next Thursday for more inspiration from Team B
I would like to take this opportunity to wish all our lovely DT, sponsors and fellow challengees a wonderful holiday time - whatever you call it and however you celebrate. AND a Happy New Year!!!
This challenge will run until Tuesday, January 1st!
Welcome to the second week of our challenge and DT CALL! Just a reminder...we would like to see any creation as long as it includes a sentiment relevant to the holidays - so that could be Christmas, Hannukah, Kwanza etc. I can't stress this enough, PLEASE don't forget to include a sentiment!
Unfortunately we are half way through the challenge and have had to exclude a number of entries as they are either back-linked, don't have a sentiment, don't have a relevant sentiment etc. We hate having to do this as we love all the hard work and creativity that everyone brings to the challenges, but we need to keep it fair for everyone. If you are unsure of our general rules, please take a peek at the tab above.
If you would like to have a go at our DT call, more information is on the post here

As I mentioned the last couple of weeks, we have a design team member call - so we are looking for people who love crafting for the sheer fun of it! We are not looking for people with lots of experience - as long as you enjoy creating then you are in with a chance! We don't mind if your first craft is cardmaking, altered art, scrapbooking - whatever floats your boat! You will be expected to create an item for our challenges - these run over two weeks, so one project every fortnight. Sometimes our wonderful sponsors give us images to play with, so this is a great opportunity to play with images from lots of different companies! Although, we don't get images from all our sponsors (they need to watch the pennies too and are already generously sponsoring a prize!). You will also be expected to visit entries to the challenges and leave a little love comment for them - you don't need to visit all of them as we share the love between us all. And on your visits you get to choose your top 3 to put forward to win - we are very democratic! We have a great team of crafters for you to join and can't wait to get to know you. We always understand that life can get in the way of crafting, so we never get miffed if you can't create for a particular challenge. If you would like to enter the DT call (go on, give it a try!) then just add DT to your name on the challenge entry linky! Entry closes 18th December. Good Luck!
For this challenge we are so excited to have Birdie Brown as our sponsor. They are giving the winner their choice of 3 images. Thanks so much!
Here is a little bit about them...
Hello everyone! I'm Torico, the owner of Birdie Brown. I’m a
mom to two kids who live in Japan.
I've loved doodling since I was a child, and have a passion
for cardmaking now! At my Etsy shop, Birdie Brown, I'm offering whimsical and
cute (Japanese "kawaii") digital stamps created from my original illustrations.
I love "simple & cute" designs. So, most of my digital stamps are
designed to match such a style. If you also like "simple & cute"
style, you'll find something you have been wanting on Birdie Brown!!
OK, now onto the challenge. We want to see any creation as long as it includes a sentiment relevant to the holidays - so that could be Christmas, Hannukah, Kwanza etc. I can't stress this enough, PLEASE don't forget to include a sentiment!

Congratulations and don't forget to grab your badges!
For this challenge we are so excited to have The Paper Shelter as our sponsor. They are giving the winner a $20 gift voucher. Thanks so much!
Here is a little bit about them...
If you are
looking for fun, cute and lovely digi stamps for your paper-crafting or
web design projects, The Paper Shelter is your one-stop boutique!
This growing catalog of high-quality digi stamps with many different
kind of options offers a multitude of themes such as everyday items,
holidays, special occasions, children, adorable characters and
creatures. Stamps are available in standard black and white line art, as
well as in pre-colored format. Images are wonderful for coloring and make perfect additions to greeting cards and scrapbook albums.
OK, now onto the challenge. We have a game of BINGO for you!
OK you need to pick a line (vertical, horizontal or diagonal) and make sure that your project contains all three things on that line. BUT, if you use the diagonal that starts with SNOW, please don't forget to include a sentiment as there is no word required for this row!
So, if I were going vertical I would need to use some snow (false is fine!!), the word "happy" and a die cut, or perhaps embossing, bling and the word "Joy". Hope you have lots of fun with this one!
