Morning all! Today it's me - Helene - guiding you through this week's challenge. Since I live way up in the north of Sweden where we actually got snow this week (not a lot and it didn't stay but still...) I needed something to keep my mind off the grey and cold weather. And what better than pretty ribbons and bows!

So use ribbon and bows on your creations this week so the images can warm my heart :)

Our two sponsors this week are:

And the wonderful creations of our design team - I'm getting warmer already :)

Challenge 228 - Use your ABC

It is once again time for our new Challenge here at Allsorts and it is my week (Jo!) to host the Challenge and for this week's title I have chosen ....................................

Use your ABC's

I would like to see projects of all kind with some sort of use of the Alphabet but avoiding including letters in a sentiment. It can be a title or name for example. You will see from our fabulous Design Team members projects what the idea is. Our wonderful sponsors for this week are:

We are a family owned art stamp company dedicated to providing crafters around the world with whimsical and fun rubber stamp designs. All of our rubber stamps are made from deeply etched rubber, mounted on Cling Cushion Foam and once trimmed are ready to use with an acrylic block. Our Shapeology Metal Craftings dies are exclusive to Whimsy Stamps and can be used with many table top cutting machines. These dies are made in the USA using top quality steel. They are perfect for cutting papers and fabrics and many coordinate with our sentiment stamps. We also have our own line of 6x6 designer papers printed on high quality, slightly textured vellum paper.

Craftbug is your one stop craft shop, for all your crafting needs, offering quality brands like Spellbinders, Sizzix, ProMarkers, Tonic Studios, Decopatch plus lots more. If you are looking for Card Making, Scrapbooking, Die Cutting, Jewellery Making, Kids Craft, or just general crafting products, then you have come to the right place with over 10000 quality products in stock ready for a same day dispatch. It’s also FREE postage to all UK postcodes for orders over £12.

Thank you so much for both of these sponsors.

Now here are some of the designs from the team ..................

Week 227 - Autumn Colours

Good Morning to you all, time for our new challenge here at Allsorts and this weeks theme as chosen by our lovely Catherine is.................................

********Autumn Colours********

Although here in the UK Autumn looks like being a late one, we can all anticipate the wonderful colours that this beautiful time of year brings and I know I for one love using them in my crafting.

Our lovely sponsors this week are..................

Crafty Ribbons is a ribbon emporium, we are passionate about ribbons and want to share our fantastic ribbons with others. Our range of Christmas ribbons is second to none. Remember when we only used ribbons to add a bow to our hair, or tie up a birthday parcel ? Ribbons are now a "must-have" for all types of craft. Whether your project requires satin, sheer, silk, grosgrain, gingham or polka dot ribbon we have them all! Lots and lots of different colours in a range of widths. Need a little bit of ribbon inspiration - then have a look at our projects on our blog,or visit our Inspiration blog,or maybe join in with us at our Challenge blog. Go on, have a look... It's worth it !

DigiStamp Boutique offers a wide range of digi images designed by Sally-Ann Hancock. My work means the world to me - it allows my passion to draw and create, to fit with my family life too - often the inspiration for my designs. Hope you enjoy as much as I enjoy creating.

And now for some inspiration from the design Team who as always have come up with some real stunners to set you on your way.............
