This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
your Favourite Christmas Image (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

Annette

I love penguins and this image has been a firm favourite for a long time.  He's just adorable and I love that he's quite a small stamp, and very quick to colour.  I've cut him out with a huge stitched circle die to give him lots of focus.  
He's called 'Snow Cute' - and he is exactly that!!!

Samantha

My favourite stamp this year is a Robin stamp from Woodware.
There are so many opportunities with it.

Here is what I have done with this cute and versatile stamp, with 

a little of my doodling.

Carol

My favourite this year has to be this Snowman, he's handsome, quick to colour, if like me running out of time! And he looks like he's sending best wishes for me lol.

Mojca

My most favourite Christmas stamps are owls and this one is really one of the best. I make this kind of card every year; so quick to colour and what a great effect on CAS cards!

Sarah

It's Holly for me. I've used her for the last three Christmases. She is so pretty, easy to colour and little girls love her (and big ones for that matter!!)

Suzette

**coming soon**


Wilma
My all time favourite Christmas image is any snowman. I have a lot of snowmen stamps and I adore every one of them. Some are cute and some are fun and they are easy to colour. 

So now it's over to you.

who are offering a £10 prize to our winner

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
your Favourite Song or Film (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

Annette

As soon as you look at my card, you'd be forgiven for thinking it's the Cyndi Lauper song 'Girls just wanna have fun', but just to confuse you, I've opted for New Shoes by Paolo Nutini as I have a bit of a thing for shoes!  Hence the shoe charm and shopping bags!  I'm imagining that those bags are full of lovely new shoes!

Samantha
I thought for a little while and I have many favourite songs and films
But at this time of year I think the song I have in my mind is
Oh Christmas Tree
Why?
Because we always have a real tree
and we get it the 1st Week in December
I LOVE a real tree!

Carol

I'm going all Christmassy here and I love the song "From our house to your house". Love Christmas, love spending time and visiting friends and family.

Mojca

I chose The Cult's cong Wild Flower. I just love this group so much, it was unavoidable :P

Sarah

One of my favourite films is The Sound Of Music, it reminds me of childhood family Christmases when my Grandma used to get tiddly on Cherry Brandy!! So it's 
"...warm woollen mittens" for me!!

Suzette

**coming soon**


Wilma
I am a fan of Janis Ian and love the song "Stars". It's a bit of a sad song but the melody/music is so beautiful.  

So now it's over to you.
We hope you will join in our challenge, show us your style and 
showcase your Favourite song or Film (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Good luck, and happy crafting.
Hugs from the AYLI girls.

The sponsor of this challenge is

Crafty Sentiments

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
your Favourite Christmas Embellishment (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

Annette

I've opted for a modern image,  but I guess my chosen red and green colours are fairly traditional!  However, it's cute and therefore feels very modern rather than traditional like a nativity or wintry scene.

Samantha

I choose Modern as my favourite.
Zentangle has been around for years but I love the modern twist we have seen in the recent year...
Although I don't class my card as zentangle... more like doodling.

Carol

I like both but going with modern as I thought this little Christmas tree looked great embossed in white against the black.

Mojca

I like traditional! Lovely green and red colours and cute Christmas images as these owls definitely are :)

Sarah

A modern style Christmas  card  for me every time.
 Why? Because I can't resist a cute little person or a fluffy bear !!

Suzette

 I think owls are cute and so I have also added some googly eyes to my owls and went with a mainly white theme to showcase the image and added some fluffy stuff for snow on the die cut trees.

 

Wilma

My favourite Christmas style is traditional. I love the colours green and red, especially the bright colours.  And I like to use images of cute snowmen. 

So now it's over to you.

We hope you will join in our challenge, show us your style and 

showcase your Favourite Christmas Style (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Good luck, and happy crafting.

Hugs from the AYLI girls.
