Fleur I have made a Christmas card using the gorgeous Winnie - Christmas Wishes "Friendly Cuddle". The papers I have used are Winnie - White Christmas, Sentiments are Winnie - White Christmas Downloads. Image is coloured with DistressInks & I have used lots of "chunky" and "Puff" white embossing powder.
Ruth - I used Igloo Camp - Octavia Frosted Winter, added stickles and dots with liquid pearls to the jacket. I used a snowflake background pattern paper. Colored her with copics.
Dawn - I used SnowDrift Friends on my Christmas Card. I colored them using copics.
Normam I used Frosty the snowman tree time un this mix media card, I used some oxide inks for the background, put some gesso with a stencil and then I put my digi colored with pencil colors.

Stunning projects from the team - I'm sure you agree.


So it's time for our Winners from
Challenge 48

We made a little boo boo and have somehow lost all our InLinkz entries (we think Nikky was a little drunk and deleted the InLinkz code by mistake, we will blame it on her!)...So because we have no entries and can't reinstate them for Week 48 we will pick again from Week 47 instead to try and make up for our error.
We can only apologise, but sometimes humans make stupid mistakes like hitting the wrong key at the wrong time and then being too dumb to notice, so please accept our sincere apologies!

Corinne - I have made a December interactive Birthday card for my twin sister.. What better gift then adding a gift card inside. Supplies: Horray, Country Christmas 6X6 paper pack, Posydoodles Basic Tag dies and Ribbon



Judy: My interactive December Birthday card for this week's challenge is a pop up slider card.I used the digital image, Ice Queen - Octavia Frosted Winter. Sentiments from the Rosebud Download Collection, Fancy Snowflake Die and Snowman Sentiments Stencil for the gold snowflakes on the background. 


Ruth: I found one of the Little Monsters in my stash - Fuzzpea and I've coloured him with Promarkers and added him to the inside of the card after cutting a hexagon to the front of the card and then cutting each part as shown in the photos below.


I covered the inside of each flap with offcuts of papers from Ho Ho Ho Christmas 6x6 stack (I keep all the little bits I don't use on projects because you never know when you might need them!) The sentiment I used can be found here in the store.


NELLY Here is my project for this weeks craft for the challenge, we was asked to design a winter Birthday card that has an interactive element, I have used Winnie-Christmas-wishes- paper download - Winnie Topper Collection - making faces sentiments

This week the team were challenged to make a Christmas 
decoration for the home or the tree.




Norma, Is time to decorate our homes with Christmas, and I made this little wall decor using the adorable digi called, Helping hands,



Ann-Marie  -  For my make this week I've upcycled an old candle jar to make a Christmas decoration.  I re-sized one of tree images in the embellies section of Winnie White Christmas download kit and printed it off to use as a template. I painted the jar and when dry removed the tree image so I was left with a tree shaped aperture.  I coloured up Winnie Tweet Sounds and Winnie Forest Friends and 3d them on the jar.  A little fake snow inside and I have one more decoration to add to my collection.


Fleur I have made a simple, but effective hanging decoration this week. I have coloured one of the cute Penguin images from the Winnie White Christmas collection, adding a little glossy accent to his beak. I have die-cut 3 circles in ascending sizes. These are then fixed together using a small brad. This then can be closed to give as a gift. Papers used for my scalloped circles & the poinsettia are Baked with love PH2 & the sentiment is from Winnie White Christmas download.


Ruth - I made a mailbox box and added Hollybobs Mailbox standing up, it will be perfect to decorate any part of my house or even at my office. 


Lisa - For my make this week I have created a couple of Christmas Tree decorations, with a hidden mint chocolate sandwiched in the middle! I have used papers from Winnie Christmas Wishes Papers 2, a sentiment from Winnie White Christmas Sentiments, a digi from Work & Play 5 Festive Hollybobs Full Download Collection, which I've coloured with alcohol markers and Fanciful Circles Dies.


Michela  I created a mini box with the set of cards Winnie Winterland and one of the sentiment  Winnie White Christmas I used mini LEDs and the fireplace really turns on!




Stunning projects from the team - I'm sure you agree.

So it's time for our Winners from
