Week 686 🏖

Good morning, Brenda here to welcome you to our new challenge and I've chosen a simple theme to tie in with the lovely weather we are currently having in the Northern Hemisphere......

******Summer******

Summer gardens, flowers, fun at the beach, bbq's, sunny colours, so many options and we are looking forward to seeing your takes on the theme. 

Two super prizes this week,

Oakwood Archer established in 2014 and located on the outskirts of Nottingham; we are a small, family run business who specialise in the distribution of craft, haberdashery and embroidery products. We stock a wide range of well known craft brands from all over the world, as well as producing our own themed ranges of stamps, dies and stencils. 

Featuring regularly on Facebook Live and The Craft Store shopping channel, we have our dedicated craft demonstrator Tina Barnett. The prize is a Stampendous Summery stamp set. 

Ruth Hamilton Design: I have enjoyed crafting all my life and have been involved in the craft industry for several years. I started drawing images to use on cards for my own use and then went on to design some stamps for a well known craft company.I am an avid lover of nature so most of my drawings are of flowers, birds and animals. Even when I can’t travel I love spending time in the garden, growing plants and looking after them. I hope you enjoy colouring my digi images, I have several YouTube videos here.

First we have a lovely Honeysuckle card from Ruth using one her her brand new images Honeysuckle available here.

Here is the inspiration from the Design Team, remember they love visits and you can go direct to their personal blogs from the links above their names......

Winner and Top 5 for Week 685 - Christmas In July

Hi everyone, it's Pauline here again to thank  everyone who joined in this week's Christmas In July challenge, and to announce our winners and top 5. How could I possibly have known back when I set the challenge that across the UK and Europe we would be dealing this week with such fierce temperatures - the UK had its hottest ever day on Tuesday since records began!! It certainly did feel strange scrolling through all your entries as I sat sweltering at my desk ... but I hope that everyone managed to stay safe and that the thought of Christmas and snowflakes cooled everyone down - at least mentally!!

So without further ado ... this week's 2 randomly drawn prize winners are ..  no. 43 and no. 54  both claimed. Note added 26/8/22: sadly the sponsor of the voucher failed to acknowledge our messages with winner details, so that winner has been sent an alternative prize.

That's no. 43 - Pinky and no. 54 - Poydan kulma - congratulations!  

Please contact Brenda (details in the sidebar) by Thursday 28th July to claim your prizes, and feel free to take our Winner's badge to display on your blogs.

Now to the top 5 - always so difficult to choose, but it had to be done, and so here they are in order of entry.

No. 7 - Lorraine

No. 20 - Mummylade

No. 36 - Helen

No. 50 - Alison C

No. 86 - Erika

Congratulations to all of you - please do take our Top 5 badge and display it proudly on your blogs.

That's all from me for now - Brenda will be here bright and early in the morning with a new challenge - hope to see you then!

Week 685 🎄

Hi everyone, it's Pauline here to welcome you to another Allsorts challenge. I have chosen the theme this week and it is

*** Christmas in July ***

If you're anything like me you make a vow every January to get ahead with your Christmas makes to prevent the last minute rush and panic ... but have you actually made any yet?? So far I have made ..err ... two!! So this theme has given me the opportunity to increase that total by 50% at a stroke, and we hope it will encourage you to join us and tick some more off your own Christmas lists!

This week we have two fabulous prizes for our winners - firstly a £15 store voucher from Pearlywinks

Pearlywinks craft supplies is a family run business based in Manchester, the business was established in 2018 by Simon and Donna who have been avid crafters for at least 20 years following on in family footsteps. The business has grown from less than 10 ink sprays to over 100 different ink products, Texture Paste, Stamps, Stencils and a selection of mediums. All of our inky products are made in house and we try to have our products made by other UK based companies. We have been featuring on the craft channel Hochanda on a monthly basis since the company began. 

Secondly we have this lovely Christmassy Sizzix die.

Everyone on the Design Team has been getting into the festive spirit to inspire you ...

First I would like to thank this week's Guest DT member Anesha

and also thanks to the rest of the team.
