Week 630 🏳️‍🌈 Use Design Paper

Hello and welcome! Ellie here today bringing you a new challenge and I'd love for all of you to play along with us! Before I announce the new theme, I wanted to remind you to please check the post below for last week's winner and Kath's Top 5! 

This week I picked the theme of........................

Use Design Papers


I'm sure most of you have a stash of patterned papers in your craft room, but if not, you can get creative by finding pretty pages in any type of magazine as an alternative. And if that fails then you may even create your own design papers with inks, stencils, stamps, etc. 

Our wonderful sponsor this week is Chocolate Baroque giving away the beautiful Harlequin Bouquet rubber stamp. But there will be a second prize too (see below), so there will be two winners this week!

Chocolate Baroque is a small independent art and craft company, based in the historic market town of Barnard Castle in County Durham in the North-East of England and is owned and run by Lesley and David Wharton. 

We design our own range of natural rubber art stamps from hand drawn originals, complemented by typography from Lesley.  The rubber stamps are made in house, by David, to our very exacting quality standards. And nothing gets past his eagle eye!

The second prize is 2 craft stencils (contents may vary). 


The design team has been busy creating some wonderful pieces for your inspiration. As always you can visit each blog by clicking the names above each card. We'd love to hear from you!
