Week 245 - Colours beginning with 'B'

Good Morning Everyone.

Thank you for all of your gorgeous designs for Brenda's week 'Love is in the air' and well done to our winners and our top 5.  There were some fantastic projects.

It is now my week (Jo) to host the Allsorts Challenge and as you can see I would like you to make your project for us all to see using colours beginning with the letter 'B'.

But before I show you some of the wonderful creations from our design team we have a little bit of news to share with you all - we are thrilled to announce that we have expanded our happy team and would like to introduce Mervi and Susan, please join us in giving them a very warm welcome to Allsorts.

This week our lovely sponsors are:-

PASSION FOR STAMPS who offerffers a wide range of images designed by Ruth Hamilton. As the name of her store and blog suggests Ruth has a particular love of flowers and her designs have can also be purchased as rubber stamps, punches and dies all sold under the Tonic Studios name.

Yours and Mine Papercrafts Hello! My name is Mei and I have been card-making for about 3 years now but my tremendous love for it has inspired me to open up my very own online store! Yours and Mine Paper Crafts is a place where you can purchase supplies to create your own projects, or view my gallery for inspiration! We carry brands like The Greeting Farm, Penny Black, Spellbinders and more! All the brands and products we carry are items I have personally used for my own projects and I feel are awesome products that you would like as well. Its my pleasure to sponsor this week’s Allsorts challenge and as a bonus, use discount code TAKE20 for 20% off my store until the closing date of this challenge.

I think you will agree with me that with these prizes it is well worth having a go at my Challenge this week.

Week 243 - Vintage

Hi All, welcome to another challenge at allsorts, this week its my turn (Tracy) to host.  Please check if you were a winner for last weeks challenge or in our top five.

This week we are going "Vintage" and we have two sponsors this week

FlonzCraft are a small family-owned design and craft company from New Zealand, a very small country where all people are great neighbours. We work hard for our work and store philosophy to reflect that in our company. We will never be ashamed of our products. Our main goal is making and selling rubber and clear stamps and we have and unique collection of stamps that you can not find anything else

and

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.

Work from my wonderful DT chums - thank you team x
