Happy 5th Birthday to Papertake Weekly Challenge


Morning all, I was asked by the lovely Dawny P to join Papertake Weekly Challenge  as a Special Guest designer, along with members of the Original Design Team, for their special 5th Birthday Celebration, I was so honoured to be asked so of course I said Yes, Papertake was the first ever Challenge I entered.  What a celebration this is they have been sponsored by so many very kind sponsors including Simon Says Stamp, Lili of the Valley, The Ribbon Girl, Sir Stampalot, Saturated Canary, Which Craft UK, Nitwits, J & C Creations, Whiff of Joy and 2 of the DT have give aways of their own. 
I think you’ll agree that there are some amazing prizes up for grabs this week :) 

But where are these prizes?
Well they are all hidden amongst our blogs and there is a prize at every stop but who has what is a secret and we will reveal all next week.
So all you need to do to be in with a chance of winning one is to make a card for the challenge as usual and then  to stop by and visit us all and leave us a comment  – be sure not to leave anyone out because that person  could have the prize you would most like to win. It isn't in any particular order and I’ll list the blogs at the end to make it easier for you. 

I have used another of Jayne Nestorenkos new Christmas Stamps which will be released next weekend for my card, this stamp is called POINSETTIA,

Copic Poinsettia


A very plain card for me, but the image did all the work, I stamped the image out 4 times and after colouring built up the layers, just like Jaynes original Medallion cards, the gorgeous Gold Ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl, and I have cut the gold border from Memory Box  Frosty Border Die.
Don’t forget to visit every blog listed below as we all have a prize,  here’s the list of everybody taking part -
Andrea B (SGD)
Claudia (SGD)
Huggles & Best of Luck
