So let's see what the Design Team have made for you this week!...we asked them to create for a family member so let's see what they've made...

 Judy: My project for this week was created with Special Wishes Letters/Mail from the Gnome Festive Fun Digital Collection. I colored with Prismacolor Pencils and fussy cut. The background was dry embossed and sanded. I used the Woodland Door Die from the Gnome-Azing Christmas Collection.

AnaFor this Christmas card, I used beautiful digital stamp Forest Friends - Winnie Angel. The sentiment is from Gnome Christmas Joy Stamp Set. The background paper is from Happy Christmas Paper Pack and I also used Snowball/snowy/bubble/dots Stencil and blue Distress Ink. I colored this stamp with Promarkers.
Kim: Merry Christmas I share with you my card using Just for you-from the Gnome Festive Fun collection. I colored the image with my copics. The sentiment is from Baked with Love digital sentiments. 
EVA -This time I'll show you a great gift box. Then there are a few more Christmas cookies in the box, so I thought that https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/dazzle-reindeer-baking-too-cute-digital-papercrafting-download/ just fits perfectly. I wish everyone a Merry Christmas.
ENRICA - I've made three cards in a box, one for each of us, and will use them to decorate our dinner table at Christmas Eve. For my son I've used some cute digis from the 'Elvis Wesley Moose' collection, for my husband some sweet snowmen from the 'Too Cute' collection and for mine the 'Baked with Love' collection. Wishing you and your loved ones a wonderful Christmas and  sparkling New Year. Big Hugs xx
 

Gemma - For this week I used the digital stamp "Merry Christmas -Twiggy & Toots" colored by alcohol makers and distress ink. I hope you like it!
Natalia  - It's not a secret that we all love the Gnomes. I thought that one of them can "sit" on my wall or cupboard as a Christmas decoration in my family house. I decided to make this time my work more mixed media than I usually present. I played with polymer stamps, Distress Inks, and watercolor paints this time.  So, today I'm using again the Snowflakes Garden Stamp Set and the Gnome Santa Polymer Stamp Set - Naughty or Nice, they are fabulous. You can make a lot of projects with them.  In the center of my Christmas picture, I placed a lovely Gnom stamp colored with watercolor paints and I made a wreath of pine and hawthorn twigs around him. He watches my children and makes notes who is naughty or nice ;) lol...
I used a gorgeous Creepy Foliage Halloween stencil to make my background and colored it with Distress Inks. I love to mix and play with Distress, even if I haven't got many colors of them in my workshop. I hope you liked my decoration. Merry Christmas everyone! Enjoy time with your family!
More amazing ideas from the team this week!

So let's see what the Design Team have made for you this week!...we asked them to create a something for New Year and mix gold and silver metallics together in some way...

Merja - I wanted to mix gold and silver with black. Firstly I stamped some silver texture on the black cardboard with Textures Galore stamp set. Then I used gold and silver embossing powders with Bottoms Up stamp set to create the festive and stylish New Year party feeling. I used a gold gel pen to colour the "liquid" and lastly I added a golden frame and taped the whole creation on the black cardbase.

Nunzia: for this shecker card I decided to mix gold and silver on the Winnie Champagne Celebration's dress. So, I colored with alcohol markers the charming Winnie and the background with a gold ink pad. The santiment comes from Winnie celebrations-2 kit

Janet - It's time to celebrate. So I've picked a slightly different image with Winnie Fairytale Little Friend. I've coloured her with polychromo pencils. I've coloured her dress pink to bring out the pink in the backing papers which are from Winnie Wonderland Paper heaven 2. The stems and flowers have been die cut in gold, silver and pink.
Nelly Happy new year too you all! i have used winnie-clear-stamp-champagne/ and coloured her usingditress markers. the background is 4 layered squares which i stamped "2022" using funky-alphabet-a5-stamp-set-39-clear-polymer-stamps/

EIVOR - On my card today I have used the cute stamp One for You! Winnie Fruit Punch and I colored her with copics. The theme this week was Happy New Year and mixed gold and silver. How beautiful aren't thoose colors together?!! I wanted a gold background so for that I used my favorite dies Posydoodles Basics - Squares dies, and the same but smaller to create a white background. I placed the image on a doilies to get a little softer feeling. For my title I used silver letters and placed them on a tag. The tag is from the dies in the set Posydoodles Basics - Tags. Then I placed some gold and silver enamel dots and stars on my card. 

Kim OwensI had so much fun creating this week's card to share with you! I just knew that I had to make a shaker card using the Winnie Champagne Celebration digital stamp. I used my Copic markers to color her in, and Sakura Gelly Roll pens to add some sparkle and shine detail.  For the background, I dry embossed a piece of silver metallic card stock, but before running it through my machine, I inked up the debossed surface of the embossing folder with some white Distesss Oxide ink.  I filled my shaker with New Year's confetti and some chunky glitter and I decorated the inside of my card with some die-cuts that just screamed Happy New Year! 


LynnetteFor this challenge, I used the Winnie champagne celebration digi stamp coloured in with alcohol markers. The theme was mix gold and silver so I used a star background die to cut out different sized stars from gold and silver mirror card, glued them to a black background and used gold card for the borders. I used foam pads to stick down the Winnie image for a bit of dimension.

Caroline - I used this great Digital stamp - Winnie HeavenlyStamp and heat emboss Winnie directly to the backing card.  Colour the edges with ink and then colour the main image. Add Silver and Gold embossing powder to the hair and dress and lights.

 Pam For this Gold & Silver challenge I've selected Winnie in Champagne Celebration.  I love the glossy black background paper with the festive gold and silver dots.  The matting right behind Winnie is a shiny gold foiling paper.  The 5 1/2" square card base is also covered with a glittery silver paper. I finished the card with a silver metallic fleck organza ribbon tied in a double loop bow at the top left. Winnie is all decked out ready for the New Year!

More amazing ideas from the team this week - you have some great ideas to inspire you!

So let's see what the Design Team have made for you this week!...we asked them to create a Money wallet - I think we all send someone money at Christmas so check out these great ideas! ...

  Kim-For my card this week I am using Winnie Heavenly Angel- Light the Way. I have colored her using copics. This is a simple card to make as I used the same paper inside as the background to create a pocket in which you could put money, a gift card, or even a tag. 


Judy: My DT card for this week was created using the Jolly Holly Wishes Stamp Set.
I colored this cute gnome with Copics. The background paper is from the 
Sweet Gingerbread Craft Paper Pack. I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set.
Snowflakes were die cut using the Snow Globe Die SetI added some pearls for embellishment.
EVAThis time it was our job to make a money wallet. Here you can see my version 😊 I worked with glitter paper and Christmas design paper. The cute digistamp is from the Winnie Heavenly Angel collection here which I used as the main decoration.
ENRICA - Hello everyone! The project requirements for the challenge of this week was to make a money wallet... Mine is very simple but I couldn't wait to use the super cute Sugar Hit Elvis Wesley Moose digital stampThe inside is decorated with some precoloured embellishments from the Picknix 2 Gingerbread Twist Craft Download Bundle  - Money will be even more appreciated with such a sweet wallet! 
CariWant an easy Christmas gift? A money wallet!  And even better, a hand-crafted one.  After cutting out the template for a standard money wallet, I adhered strips of paper from the Elvis Wesley Moose Themed Digi Pack Pack to the front and inside. My feature image, of course, Ice Skating Elvis Wesley Moose.  I colored him with Copic markers, fussy cut him out, and adhered him to the front band.  Lastly, I added a sentiment from Elvis Wesley Moose Themed sentiments, and behold, a quick and easy Christmas gift! 


Gemma - For my new project of this week , the theme was "make a money wallet", my proposal is a Christmas glove to save the money. The digital stamp is "Winnie Winterland - Mr & Mrs Claus" colored by alcohol markers.
Natalia  - This week our DT's challenge theme is a money wallet. It's a perfect way of wrapping the money as a gift for someone. You can use any shape to make it, mine is a square shape. I've started from cutting  Winnie Winterland - Paper Heaven 3 digital papers as my background for this project. In the middle, I placed some frames and sentiments from the collection Baked With Love, but the first plan plays the Cute Robin Stocking Digital stamp colored with alcohol markers. I've completed my inspiration by adding some flowers and stamped leaves from SnowflakeGarden Stamp Set. Finally, I splashed with gesso all my work to get looked a bit frozen. I hope you like my version of a money wallet. To the next challenge!
More amazing ideas from the team this week - you have some great ideas & inspiration here to follow!
