Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed & Something Blue

 

Hello to everyone.
I hope that you are all well and that you are having a nice week  :) I have to say another  huge thank you to our Lols for once again holding the fort for me whilst I was going up the wall with my computer. Hopefully my problems are now resolved and I have a brand new pc on it’s way as we speak.

Anyway, we had a fabulous response as always to last week’s challenge and lots of lovely white and bright cards, so thank you to everyone who joined in.  I received a lovely card via e-mail from Ann who doesn’t have a blog but I was not able to upload it onto here, but I have included her as number 191 so that she has a chance at winning the prize.

And the winner is ….

 Jeanette (Kraft Kows!!)

Well done to you chick. If you e-mail me I’ll pass your details on to Katharina, and hugest of thanks to her for her wonderful sponsorship xxx

And this ….

 

is Jeanette's fabulous card :)

So onto this week and our challenge is one which we hope will give you lots of scope cos it is

Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed & Something Blue
 
How you interpret this is up to you.
You could use some old stash, or maybe something that you just bought, or maybe use blue as your colour theme, or maybe you want to make a wedding card. You could use one, two three or even all of those things. There’s a lot of possibilities here.
 
Our sponsor this week is
 
 
once again the ever so fabulous Katharina at
 
 
and the prize this week is …

… Willow With Chihuahua – ohh how sweet  (sorry about the fuzzy pic peeps!!)
and hugest of thanks to Katharina and her team once again xxx
 
We are looking for our next guest design team so if you fancy joining in the fun with the Papertake girls for 4 weeks, please put GDT after your name on Mr Linky and  we’ll be in touch :)
 
So without further ado, let’s check out what our girlies have done this week. Some of the DT are missing this week because they are away on their jollies, the lucky things!!! After all my computer probs, I wish I was with them!!!!

Hello! Hope we are allowed several entries... I've put (2nd card) after my name on my second entry so that you canchoose to keep it or not... I haven't put (GDT) on my entries because you don't say when the 4 weeks period begins (I would be interested in joining, but AFTER my wedding which is in two weeks...)

Karen McAlpine said...
