Morning, all! I hope you're all well and looking forward to a great weekend! Sadly, this is my last DT post for CRAFT Challenge. It's been a blast, and the DT is full of the loveliest ladies, all very talented and kind. However, life has become rather busy recently - in fact I'm scheduling this on Wednesday afternoon, I hope I've done it right!! The Challenge this week is Come Play Outside . This is Owen Building Birdhouse from Paper Nest Dolls. The paper is from stash and the sentiment is from the Scripty Sayings set by Lawn Fawn. Our sponsor is Paper Nest Dolls. Go and see what my lovely teamies have made to inspire you! Thanks for looking, and have a great day! love Mags B x

Hi, guys! There's a new Challenge at Dream Valley and it's Spring Colours. Spring is just around the corner - the clocks go forward in the UK this coming weekend on Palm Sunday! The adorable image is Will Work For Carrots by Paper Nest Dolls. The background paper is from an old First Edition set and is gorgeous - the images are all matt and the background has glitter all over it! The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp, it came in a kit. I added 3 dots of Nuvo Drops under the image, but because of the glitter background the card didn't need anything else. Our sponsor is : Paper Nest Dolls. My teamies have left some gorgeous inspiration for you, so ignore the snow and the bitter wind, get out your Spring Colours and join the fun! Thanks for looking! love Mags B x

Good morning! To cheer up your Monday we have a new Challenge at Dream Valley which is Lurve . With Valentine's Day approaching fast, it's a very topical Challenge! The sweet image is Emma With Heart Ballon from Paper Nest Dolls. I fussy-cut her so I could put her against a patterned background. All the papers are from the Love Story collection by First Edition. The heart sentiment is also from the paper pad, it reads 'You Make My Heart So Very Happy.' The lace is from stash, and I added Glossy Accents to the hearts on the image and Spectrum Noir Sparkle to the sentiment heart. Our sponsor is Paper Nest Dolls. I'm entering the current Challenge at Sweet Sketch Wednesday and this is their fab sketch: Go and see my teamies' gorgeous creations and feel the love! Thanks for looking, and have a good week. love Mags B x

Morning, all! I hope your week is going well and that you're looking forward to a good weekend! Maybe you're planning on making Christmas cards? If so, you're in luck, as Christmas is our new theme at CRAFT Challenge! The sweet image is Christmas Bella from Paper Nest Dolls. The crown of candles is worn by Santa Lucia, whose feast day is now 13th December - but before the calendar changed in 1752 it was on the shortest day, hence the candles to signify light. A friend of my daughter's is called Lucy and she's a big fan of Santa Lucia, so this is for her! The papers are from an old pad by Papermania, there is gold foiling and glitter on some of the papers. The sentiment is from the Paper Smooches Christmas Sammpler. Our sponsors this week are: All Dressed Up Stamps and also Paper Nest Dolls Go and see the gorgeous creations made by my teamies using digis generously given to us by our sponsors! Thanks for looking! love Mags B x
