PRIZES
No challenge can be fun without prizes right?!!
We have some awesome prizes up for grabs!
A Rs.1000/- voucher from A1 Craft Supply
and
A $25 gift voucher from Winnie and Walter
Here is some inspiration to get you started....
To make this card I decided to use NEW stuff from my stash. Something I have never used before!
The gold glitter patterned paper is a free down load from Winnie and Walter, as are the Cheers die and the confetti cutaways.
I added some pretty pink posh sequins to add some more cheer and sparkle.
To make the shaker tag, I used NEW shaker pouches from Impression Obsession. They are just fantastic to use...so easy and simple!
I had two squares cut with Simon Says Stamp Stitched squares left over after making my Christmas cards. So I decided to use them to make a tag.
The stamps are from the Avery Elle birthday animal stamp set and the sequins are from my stash.
I can't wait to see what you all come up with! It's an exciting start to the new year isn't it?
You have till January 25th 2016 to play.
I will announce the winners on the 28th of January 2016.
Please read all the challenge rules and guidelines carefully.
You will find them in the right sidebar.
You can link up your creations below.
