Week 282 - Cold and frosty colours

Happy New Year to you all, we hope you had a wonderful holiday season.

Brenda here with our first challenge of 2015 and I have chosen the very seasonal theme of............

******Cold and Frosty Colours******

As always you can make absolutely anything you wish so long as we get the idea of cold and frosty weather, be it ice and snow or just those cool colours.

Before I tell you about this weeks sponsors we have a farewell to say to our lovely teamie Sarah who has been with us for several years and we will miss her unique style. I know she has found the decision very difficult but at the moment her craft needs to take a back seat, so would like to send our thanks for her enthusiasm and time on the team.

We have two great sponsors to kick start the year...............

Nicecrane Designs offer a huge range of high quality Vintage inspired design sheets and images to create and compliment all your crafting projects from cardmaking to scrapbooking. Designs range from Vintage fashion and animals to well known children's characters such as Peter Rabbit and The Water Babies with new images being added to the range on a monthly basis. The prize if a $20 store voucher.

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. The prize is a £10 store voucher.

The Design Team have come up with some wonderful inspiration to set you on your way, do remember you can click their name links to go to their individual blogs and see how they created their projects.
