Seeing red, a little change and some news!


Hello again everyone and Happy Monday to you all.
Time once again for a new challenge at Ooh La La.
 Before I get on and tell you what the new challenge is for this next fortnight let's have a look at who our winners were from the last challenge
So, firstly let me say thank you for all your lovely entries once again and without further ado let's have a look at who our winners were.
This time the top 3 have been chosen by Lisbeth

I love the colourscheme in this card, and all the lovely details - notice the little teabag on the card. Isn't it just adorable!
Congratulations Alyce

I must admit my heart soften when I see Pionpapers. And the way they've been used here, with sewing, distressing and layer upon layer - I just LOVE it!

And last, but certainly not least:

I haven't got words!
It's paper! Can you believe it???
Congratulations to all our winners.  
Don't forget to pick up your badges from the side bar.

Okay, so the title says "a little change and some news" so let's tell you all about it.
For every challenge one of our Design Team members chooses their top 3 entries so I thought it would be nice if they chose the theme and introduced the challenge to you as well.
So from this challenge onwards, that is what will happen.  After all if you choose the theme then you know what you are looking for in your winners right??
***********
So that was the little change and now for the news!
We needed a new team member to make up our numbers and I am delighted to tell you that the lovely Chris aka Crafty Chris has accepted my invitation to join our happy little band.
So, welcome aboard Chris, I hope you enjoy being here with the rest of our little family.  I just know I am going to enjoy seeing your wonderful creations.
************
Right, so onto our new challenge then.
Your hostess for this challenge is Wendy.
Wendy chose a theme of
"SEEING RED"
So let's see alot of Red on your creations.
You can make anything you like so long as we can see loads of Red on your creation.
Easy peasy right??
*****************
So then, onto the Design Team's inspiration.

If you want to take a closer look at any of the DT projects then just click on the name above their card to take you straight to their blogs.  You might even decide to have a look around whilst you are there because believe me they all produce some fantastic work.

Allison said: "This card literally jumped out at me when I saw it. The colouring is superb and the use of really vibrant shades of bright orange and zesty lime make the whole design pop."

Allison said: "The use of die cuts in her project turn a simple frame into a work of art in it's own right"

Allison said: "I just love the way she has colourised the sepia image with pencils to match the backing papers and the flowers, it adds a wonderfully colourful touch to the card."
Congratulations to all our winners.
