Now onto the fabulous inspiration from the Design Team....

Tina: I´ve made a door wreath for you. For that i have printed the beautiful Winnie Winterland Paper and cut a lot of stars out of it. The stars were folded in 3D and then glued to a cardboard ring.

In the lower center I put then Mr. & Mrs. Claus, colored with Polychromos and applied some glitter. I like the whole Winnie Winterland Bundle very well. But the selection is really not easy.

Bev here with a flip flop card. I use Winnie Winterland and Ribbon/ Gift dies to decorate.

Angie J - I've made some gorgeous Name Place Tags for Dinner table using Winnie Winterland Collectiion. I've used 2 Digital Papers from the Winnie Winterland Papers Collections Paper Haven 7 and Paper Haven 3 for the Rosettes and Name Place matting. Also used the Design Sheet 13 for the Toppers.  

Michelle - I have used Festive Christmas Collection I have used the pre coloured images and tag and just added some glitter and some Chrissy lights.

  

Scatty Jan - For my card this week I have used the wonderful clear stamp set Christmas Poinsettia/Holly. I stamped the poinsettia twice so I could raise a few of the petals.

Claire C  - I've altered an old clock to make a shaker Christmas Decoration. I coloured the image with Lyra Pencils, it's called Skating Around and you can find it as a digi here or you can get the whole Winnie in Winterland Collection here. I cut the image out, layered it over one of the beautiful backing papers with 3d foamm and added some hills made with torn paper and glitter. I popped in some 'snow' and replaced the glass of the clock with acetate. To decorate the outside of the clock I used white crackle paint and made lots of flowers with foamiran and Polkadoodles cutting dies. I used Flower 1, Flower 2 and Flower Flourish.

Such fabulous creations!.....

Bev here with a cute 5x5 card created from Horace & Boo Big Kahuna. I used a combination of papers, sentiment and design sheet. Shaping the flowers to give dimension and inking to give an aged look.

Anjie - I've used the Winnie In Winterland collection. Both of the backing papers have dots on them and then I've used the oval frame die from the Bubbleicious die set which also has a pin dot line around the edges. I've mounted the top layer of paper and the topper onto 3D foam. I've layered up some of the beautiful flowers and added some stamens to them.

Now let's see what wonderful inspiration the Design Team have for you this week.

The DT's twist on the challenge theme is Anything but a Square Card

and if you want to join in with that theme then go for it :-)

Tina - This time I made an Explosion Box and used the "Stick & Bones - Big Bundle".

Each area is 4 x 4 inch and the inhabitants I have colored with Polychromos. Much more photos and details you find on my Blog.

Scatty Jan - For my project this week I have made a saloon milk carton - I cut this on my portrait and was a lot of fun decorating up - I used the lovely images from Work & Play 3, that I coloured up using Graph'It Markers, You can also purchase the images seperately Cowboy as a digi image, also as a  clear stamp, and Cowgirl as a digi stamp - Lots more photo's on my blog.

Bev here with a cute 3D Birdhouse using Twiggy & Toots. I initially chose 7 printed 3 separate backing papers onto 300gsm card then turned them over and printed the templates onto the rear then simply cut them out and constructed the project and just for a little decoration I made some roses using the Flowers 1 Die set and added them to the roof.

Lou - I have used one of the design sheets from Winnie in Wonderland collection to create a circle rocker/stepper card. The only other embellishment added is a small piece of black lace ...

Michelle  - I have made a Twist and Pop Card and I have used Winnie In Wonderland Big Kahuna Bundle to make it. This was a lot of fun to make you can find the Video I used to make it on my blog.

Anjie - I have used left over bits of design sheet 1 from the ever so cute Sticks and Bone collection. I used the other bits for a make a few weeks ago. This is why it's always worth while saving the bits that are left over. I've placed the image and all the embellies on to 3D foam to make them pop. I've shaped and layered the flowers and added to the edge of the card.

Lots of fabulous creations to inspire you.

Now onto the fabulous inspiration from the Design Team.

Tina - I have created a small garden. There are lots of flowers, but also trees, a pair of birds, many butterflies and bees. The form for the garden consists, incidentally, of an empty tobacco can, which I have cut in length. For my work I have used a lot from the "Winnie Fruit Punch" - Big Bundle. 
Winnie Dandelion Day and the Bee House is colored with Touch Twin Markers. Here you will also find individual components: "Dandelion Days - Winnie"  and "Dandelions" Design Sheet"

On my Blog you can find much more details and photos.

Bev here with some floral inspiration for you. I used the oh so cute Helga Flower Girl. The added flowers & sentiment are available on the Big Kahuna Bundle. I coloured everything up using my Prisma Pencils. Then matted it onto matching card stock & added 2 decorative Corners.

Scatty - For my card this week I have used one of the lovely stamps from Winnie Sugar Blossom , how utterly lovely is she, You can pre-order the Winnie stamps and paper pad collectors edition right here. I have coloured up using pencils, and the flowers and paper are from The Summertime collection.

Michelle - I have used the Daisy Day Stamps Clear stamp set for my project I have stamped them with versa mark and then embossed with white embossing powder, then painted them with water colour paints and iridescent medium.

Claire C - I've used one of the gorgeous Winnie Sugar Blossom stamps (you can preorder them here) and lots of lovely Polkadoodles dies (Elegant Lamplight and Gate, Flowers 1, Flower Branch Doublet Die Set, Bubblicious Frames for the roof and Versatile Door/Window/Flap die)

Lou: I have used my Bella Fleur stamps to create my project but couldn't resist sneaking in one or two stamps from the Belle Papillion collection too. My mount is from the Ribbon Frame Gift Frame & Corners die set.

Anjie - I used the fab stamps from the Daisy Days collection. You can get the stamps on their own HERE if you wish to. I did lots of masking and used different inks to stamp the images with onto watercolour paper. I then used my Kuretake Zig Art and Graphic pens to water colour the flowers and background. I added a couple of squiggly lines with a black fine liner pen and then mounted to picture on to 3D foam. More info on my blog.

Such fabulous creations.

The DT's twist on the challenge theme is Traditional Christmas

and if you want to join in with that theme then go for it :-)

Please say a big hello to the newest member of our Design Team Tina Focking
If you get a moment why not go and check out her fabulous blog. Tina has created this fabulous make for you this week, check it all out below :-)

Tina - Today I give my debut in this fabulous design team.  I created a Christmas doily with Winnie Winterland - Yummy Gingerbread.  I´ve colored them with polychromos. The trees and the blue background paper come from the Winnie Winterland - Big Kahuna Bundle. I cut the rosette with the Cameo Plotter from white glitter paper. It looks as beautiful as shining snow. The edges I have easily distresst and then all layers with hot glue put together. Now the Doily can be hung on the wall or on a door. Please feel free to visit my Blog for more Photos.

And here's the rest of the amazing Design team makes this week :-)

Anjie - I have used the Twiggy and Toots Festive Fun Christmas collection which is just adorable. Just how cute is this little owl santa! Everything you see on the card is from the collection. I've slightly distressed the edges of the papers and image and added some faux stitching with a white pen. Everything is raised using 3D foam. More photos on my blog.

Michelle - I have made a Christmas Bauble using Winnie's Winterland Collection  This was fun to make I just resized all my images in word to the size I needed and then put it all together and used

some fake snow.

Tracy - Today I have used my favourite Christmas Collection - Festive Christmas. I wanted to add the Robin and use of flowers to surround the mailbox which is the focus. Once again lots of fussy cutting and adding distress ink to the edges to give it a more aged tradition look.

Lou - I have used the O Christmas Tree stamp set to create my huge poinsettia which I have coloured with distress inks. The petals were stamped and embossed in white first. backing paper is from the matching Festive Christmas CD.

Gail - I've used the beautiful Festive Christmas collection along with the some of the fab new dies, Flowers 1, Bubbleicious and Cherry Blossom Branch die sets.

Scatty Jan - This week am sharing a stocking that I made and decorated using Festive Christmas collection.

Bev here, with my take on a traditional Christmas to me that means good old green & red. I opted for the very useful Festive Christmas collection and cut out a few pre-coloured images & papers. I just added some bakers twine, a bell and a sentiment from my crafty stash.

Ruth - I've gone for a golden oldie this week - all the way back to Paper Boutique 2 - Creative Christmas.  Simply printed all the elements, cut them out and layered up with foam pads.  Great for something to do whilst watching Christmas films!

Claire C - I've made a quick card using the fabulous design sheets from Winnie Winterland, just adding ribbon, lace a charm and of course some glitter! 

Lots of fabulous creations to inspire you.

Our Winner and Top 3 of our Anything Goes Challenge Weeks 48/49 will be announced next Friday.
