Hello there, dear crafty friends! I can't quite believe that it is this time of year already, but here we are at the beginning of December, preparing for Christmas and the start of a New Year! It also means that it is time for our Mega Christmas Challenge over at Passion for Markers...
This challenge will run for a whole month and ends on 3rd January 2023! This gives all of our Design Team members a chance to take a little break over the festive season and catch up on their last minute cards and gifts...however to make up for the lack of challenges we have some fantastic prizes up for grabs!
Our theme for the Mega Christmas challenge is “use die cuts”. We don't mind what you create for this challenge, as long as you use some die cuts and colour with your markers! You are welcome to make Christmas creations but as the challenge will still be running after the ‘BIG’ day you can of course make any type of creation. As time is precious for our DT at this time of year we are limiting the number of entries you can make to just 3 for this month long challenge.
* Please
remember to be eligible for our prizes you must use your markers such as
Promarkers, Copics, Spectrum Noir, Karin, Zig Clean Color etc *
So now for the exciting bit – the prizes!

Wow, we are sure you’ll agree our sponsors have been super generous once again this year! We are so grateful to have their continued support.
We have asked both design teams to share some inspiration with you but as it such a long challenge we will be posting the inspiration from Team 1 today and then in two week’s time we will be posting inspiration from Team 2.
So here's a look at my contribution...
Once again, I managed to avoid that event that is looming on the near horizon and went for a pretty floral creation using a new stamp and die set that I picked up in one of the various sales?! I coloured the little flower sprigs with my Pro/Flexmarkers :
I kept my card in my ever favourite CAS style with an inked background and although somewhat happy with the result, I feel it is a little off balance and everything could have done with being lower on the card...but hey, ho! I'll know for next time!...
So to re-cap the challenge will run until 3rd January 2023 and you can enter a maximum of 3 times. Unfortunately during the Mega Christmas challenge we will not be choosing a Top 5 Passionista but this will re-commence for the first challenge in 2023.
I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and wish you every happiness in the coming year!
Crafty hugs,
