March Theme Challenge Week 1

We've got a fun theme for you this month - we're playing tic-tac-toe!   Just pick a line across the grid below, either vertical, horizontal or diagonal and get creative!   So for example you could create a bright purple watercoloured elephant if you used the top horizontal, or say a big HELLO with bold patterned paper if you pick a diagonal.

As with all our challenges it is important that you use at least one product from the almost 7000 we sell and also that the project you make is inspired by the challenge so links to previously made projects will be rejected.  Qualifying entries will be eligible for our monthly prize which from this month on will be £20!

 

If you're still struggling to come up with some ideas on which line to play on the grid, then the DT will be playing along with you all month and 3 of us have our entries this week.  You'll get 2 more reminders with 2 more projects each as the month progresses and you have until 10pm on Sunday 26th March to play along.

March Sketch Challenge - Week 1

It's been SUCH a busy month with all the CHA products arriving that I haven't yet managed to sort out the winner from last months challenge but I will catch up this week so watch this space for a winners post.  In the meantime though I wanted to kick off our new challenge on the right day and this month we have a lovely sketch for you to play with.

You can flip the orientation, go layered or one layer, card or layout - whatever you fancy - just show that the sketch was the kick off point and make sure you use at least one product from the vast range we stock to be eligible for the £15 prize.

We have some very different interpretations from the DT so can see just how far you can take the sketch - we can't wait to see what you do with it!

Jenny
I have used Balloon String Background as the sea for my Walrus and Seal to swim in.
The Hello is from this Paper Smooches  die set

Lydia
I have used Fall Florals for the bouquet, the sentiment is from Be A Unicorn.
The frame was cut with the large scalloped die from Basic Set.

Tara

I used the Hello Gorgeous Paper Pad and Journal Cards to get the shapes on the sketch (the glittered heart is in the journal card pack).  I used the Happy Mother's Day Banner for the lines in the sketch.

Once you've completed your project - link it up to our 

monthly challenge page by 10pm on Sunday 27th March 

for a chance to win!
