Hello, and welcome back to the Christmas Craft Creations challenge for September!
This month our theme is Metallics - please make sure the theme is obvious in your project. If you missed our launch of the challenge you can find inspiration from our incredible launch team here. And of course, there's even more shimmering inspiration to share with you today from our talented reminder team.
For those of you who play along with us this month, we have some lovely prizes up for grabs. In no particular order, they are:
Prize 1
Gemini by Crafters Companion - Opulent Swirls Die (contains 6 dies), donated by Angela
Prize 2
Aallandcreate by Bipash BK - The Old Vase stamp set, donated by Fiona
Prize 3
Mystery prize pack, donated by Charlotte (UK/EU only)
The prize winners will be picked randomly from among those entrants who have followed all the rules, which are in the sidebar if you need a refresher. If you have a preference as to which prize you'd like (or if there are any you definitely don't want) please leave a comment below letting me know, and I will do my best to keep those preferences in mind when drawing winners.
We're changing things up with our Guest Designers! In addition to each month's DT Favourite winner having a chance to Guest Design with us the following month, we will also be having some other Guest Designers from time to time. More information on how you can put your name forward to be a Guest Designer will follow later in the year. Please do leave a comment below to let us know if you think this is a good idea, so I can gauge how much interest there is!
First, we have Penny of Penny Busch Creations! The eagle-eyed amongst you may recall that Penny is a previous member of our Design Team, and we are thrilled to have her back with us this month. Here is the resplendent card she made:
We also have lovely Vicky Davies joining us. Vicky enjoys making all sorts of cards, not least of which are Christmas cards! Here is the sweet and sparkly card that Vicky made for this challenge:
