Week 238/239 - Brown/blue/aqua


Happy Saturday everyone, it' my turn to host the theme her at Allsorts and it's going to be a two week challenge to let us all have a bit of a break over the Christmas period so after this one the next one will be on 4th January.

I have chosen the them of .................................


Brown with blueaqua or turquoise
or a combination of all

It's a colour palette that I love working with and hope all of you do as well or if it's new to you that you will give it a try and join in the fun.

As it's Christmas we have three wonderful sponsors



Crimson Cloud with the great prize of one of their own exclusive stamp sets. A mother/daughter venture - a way to indulge our joint passion of cardmaking and crafting. We only sell products that we have tried, tested and love using. We have developed our own exclusive range of digital stamps, svg files and "Make Your Own Card" kits which reflect our styles of card making - and hopefully yours too!

Digi Darla 5 images of winners choice

DigiDarla is the brain child of Kim Eskola and her daughter Emilea and both enjoy creating and when the idea of creating digital stamps came up, it sounded like the most wonderful way to earn ever! The stamps you will find in the store and on this site come from our art as well as a few family friends that help to digitize so we can keep up. Their prize is five images of the winners choice.


Prize is a stamp of winners choice

Whiff of Joy is a family run business. Our intention is to bring you high quality, unique craft products, which takes your crafting experience to a new joyful level. Our range of products include whimsical rubber stamps, fresh digi stamps, innovative Die-lights, fresh charms, ribbons, paper and more. Give us a try!" And a prize of the winners choice of stamp from their range.


And there is an extra prize for all of our entrants from Ignacio at Nicecrane Designs, you can download direct from here one of his new unique designs free of charge for use on your own artwork. You may also like to check out his blog here.

Now for some inspiration from the Design Team to set you on your way...........................

Week 236 - Anything but Christmas


Good Morning Crafters,

Welcome to another week at Allsorts Challenge.  Thankyou to everyone who took part in last week's challenge and well done to the winner and the top 3! Pop over to the Allsorts Challenge Blog to check if you were one of these lucky crafters if you haven't checked already.

This week it is my turn (Jo) to host the Challenge and I have decided that it is time that we chose

......................................

ANYTHING BUT CHRISTMAS !!!

for this weeks theme.

We would like to see a project that has anything but a Christmas theme.  I love Christmas but I have been making cards for workshops and samples for TV since May and I feel that it is the right time to have a little of something else to show people.  Do you agree?!!

Our lovely sponsor this week is ~

Digistamp


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.

Our Design Team have left some inspiration to get you started with some ideas for the Challenge.

Brenda

Pop back to the blog on Friday to check out the winners and top 3.
