winner and top 5......

So sorry to be late with my top 5 this week but we are having a new kitchen fitted and first the electric was off for a while and second the modem wasn't letting me stay online long enough to comment on any entries!

It was tough to pick a top 5 this week, so many unusual entries, it seems the challenge of no stamping really got your creative juices flowing!! 85 entries to choose from was certainly a huge job.

So without further ado the winner picked by the random doodah is number 21 Anne from Anne's crafty bits Well done Anne, please email me on amandajanewallace@yahoo.co.uk and I will get your prize in the post.

My top 5 are as follows:

1 Piabau
2 Tab
3 Susie Sugar
4 Daisychain
5 Yvonne

Well done all of you ladies, please help yourselves to the top 5 banner and display it on your blogs :o) Thankyou all for taking part in my challenge everyone, can't wait to scoot round your entries to Deb's challenge this week

Challenge #17 - Something for the Boys

Hello everyone - I can hardly believe that it is my (Debs) turn to set the theme again already - time flies by so quickly!!!!

It will be my son's birthday soon and I have been trying to decide what card to make for him and thought it would be an opportunity to get some more inspiration for the dreaded male cards!!!! So I would like to see your take on something for the male/s in your life.
I will be offering the following prize for the randomly chosen winner.

  1. An unmounted Gorjuss girl rubber stamp
  2. 2 x clear stamps
  3. A packet of 6 designer brads
  4. A bag of paper flowers
  5. 6 x pots of flocking powder

I look forward to seeing all your great projects and good luck with the draw.

*****Just a quick note that last weeks winner and top 5 will be announced on Monday so pop back then to see if you have been lucky*****

Here are the fantastic projects from the very talented DT. Do check out their individual blogs for some other wonderful inspirational projects.
