Did You Win? (please scroll down for new challenge)

Last week's challenge "Tag You're It!" was sponsored by the most wonderful new online store - a real treasury of unusual and beautiful embellishments

 A HUGE thank you to Tea House Bridge for donating this lovely prize - it's now time to announce the winner of this wonderful array of goodies:

 We've used a Random Number Generator and checked that the person it chose complied with the rules - you'd be surprised at how many people missed out on a chance to win this fantastic prize by not checking them!

The winner is:

link no 29:   MILLA

congratulations, Milla.please contact us at DCM_enquiries@hotmail.co.uk with your postal details and we'll arrange for your prize to be sent to you.

Sadly, there could be only one winner - but why not pop over to
Tea House Bridge and be tempted by all the loveliness they have to offer!

The Sportsman

Thanks to everyone who joined in with Gez's challenge last week - if you made a card and checked that you'd complied with the rules then you could be the very lucky winner to be announced in just a few minutes - we'll be back as soon as possible with the name of the winner..

Our fabulous prize has been donated by our very own Zuzana, who recently opened the doors of her brand new online store Tea House Bridge.

Meanwhile, we can get started on our new challenge and it's me (Kathy) here this week to set the dare

There are no fewer than 7 family birthdays coming up in May, and 5 of them are "boys".  I always struggle when it comes to making boy/man cards, and I know a lot of you will be just the same.   I thought we could all help each other out by challenging ourselves to make at least one masculine card this week - and to make it a little bit easier we'll go for a Sporting theme:

The Sportsman

So, a masculine card with a sporting theme - it can be for any age of "boy" you like - from baby boy to Grandads, just make sure it also has some sort of sport featured too - footie, rugby, fishing, weightlifting, golf, athletics....the whole sporting arena is yours to choose from.

Are you ready?

Then let's make some cards!

Here are some fab ideas from the team to help get you thinking

Thank you to everyone that played along with Keilly's 'Material Girl' dare last week. Your fabric creations were fab!

This week it's the fourth of our First Friday of the Month Colour Combo Challenges and this time it's Leo here to give you your April colour combo.

Sorbet Colours

With the spring here and summer just around the corner we're being bombarded with summer fashions and I've noticed in particular lots of pretty sorbet colours so inspired by this I've found out a pretty sorbet colour palette for us:
