This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
your Favourite: Teddies or Fairies (& 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'm definitely a 'cute and furry' teddy kinda gal.  And out of all my teddy images, my favourite has to be James the bear.  He's adorably cute and I love this little image of him looking a bit thoughtful at his 'Santa stop here' sign.

Samantha

**coming soon**


Brenda

I love Teddies!  I have fond memories of cuddling with a well loved Teddie and reading stories about Winnie the Pooh.

Elaine

Teddies win hands down with me. I love the soft cuddly look and feel, they are so adorable. 

Kat

Fairies and teddies both feature pretty often on my cards but I think I have to choose teddies because of the cute and cuddly factor, and because James bear is one of my all time favourite characters!

Lori

I love them both, but I have a slight more "love" for fairies! They are so pretty and are fun to imagine flittering around doing good deeds! :)

Lorraine
I love both really but I have always been drawn to magical or fantasy images and I adore anything fairy-like.
Wouldn't it be lovely if these beautiful little beings lived in my garden.

Mojca

I must confess that I prefer fairies to teddies although I love latter also ... but fairies are so mystical and I just love to colour them :)

Sarah

It's teddies for me and the ever gorgeous James just had to feature, I mean let's face it he is pretty fantastic!!

Squirrel

Teddies - absolutely no question.  If's it's furry and huggable then I'm there!

Suzette

**coming soon**


Wilma

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

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

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

Prize - £15 voucher

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
your Favourite Favourite Food or Drink ? (& why).
This could also be interpreted as a colour too, eg favourite is chocolate so use brown,
or you like strawberries so use pink/red.

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

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

Annette

My favourite is chocolate which could be either food or drink because you can both eat and drink it!  I love the taste and it's not so much a love as a need!  Yup, I'm a chocoholic (and seek no cure!)

Samantha
Oh my favourite is definitely food!
and well chocolate cake!
do I need to say anymore?
CHOCOLATE CAKE!

Brenda

It would be hard for me to decide between coffee and chocolate.  If I absolutely had to choose, it would be a nice cup of bold, hot coffee!  Some mornings, the only thing to roust me out of bed is the thought of drinking that delicious brew.

Elaine

I am a real foodie, but I do like to share a glass of wine with friends.

Kat

**coming soon**

Lori

Well, this is a no-brainer for this girl LOL...anyone who knows me knows that I am a true "coffee addict" so for me this week, it's BEVERAGE - coffee! It's my ultimate FAV!!!

Lorraine

I love to share a cuppa and a chat with friends.

Mojca

**coming soon**

Sarah

I like food (chocolate especially!!) AND drink, however I NEED coffee in order to fuel me for mucking out in the morning so I have chosen to showcase some rather lovely coffee cups :0)

Squirrel 

Oh I do like me grubs, but I find nothing perks me up more than a delicious coffee, hot if the weather is cold, or iced if it is a really hot day.  My current addiction is a Costa Flat White (other brands are available)

Suzette

**coming soon**

Wilma

Of course, I love good food, but I also really enjoy to drink a glass of wine with friends on a sunny terrace.

So now it's over to you.

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

showcase your Favourite of our options.

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite to win the prize.

Good luck, and happy crafting.

The sponsor of this challenge is 
Dies to Die For

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
your Favourite Christmas Stamp & 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 this Lili of the Valley stamp. I've had it for a couple of years but it's great for many reasons:
1) It's really quick to colour so great for last-minute makes,
2) Penguins are one of my favourite winter critters,
3) I love images that feature a scene or several characters,
4) It includes a sentiment so I don't need to add one!

Samantha
I love snowflakes they really help jazz up christmas
I have several different snowflake stamps but my favourite ones are Snowflake serenade from Papertrey Ink, you can not buy them in the UK so they are super special.
and they are Great to cards and also decorating paper for parcels too!

Carol

I chose Postcard from Stampendous as it reminds me of our home in stormy times. Christmas at it's best! 

Mojca

Dancing with star Tilda is my favourite Christmas stamp. Well I can use it for almost any occasion that's why she is my favourite one :)

Sarah

My favourite Christmas stamp is Bildmalarna's Christmas Kiss.

The reason it's my favourite is because I used it lots last year and then lost it :0(
However, as I was looking through my scrap box a couple of weeks ago  there it was, so I've had the pleasure of rediscovering my love for this little sweetie!

Suzette

Suzette is still poorly.  
We hope you're feeling better soon Suzette.



So now it's over to you.
We hope you will join in our challenge, show us your style and 
showcase your Favourite Christmas Stamp.

Good luck, and happy crafting.
Hugs from the AYLI girls.
And don't forget this challenge will remain open for 3 weeks.
