Your Favourite Harvest Colours (& why).
You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

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



Although orange wouldn't normally be one of my favourite colours, in autumn it's lovely to see all the leaves turning before they create their carpet. Does anyone else like kicking through the crispy leaves in Autumn?








I love the orange, deep yellow and burgundy that show up on all the beautiful trees at harvest time.  I love that Nature has such a way with colors you would sometime not expect. These colors hold lovely memories for me.




Harvest colours to me are the same as Autumn, love the yellow,oranges,and reds.






My favourite harvest colours are the gold, red and grey/green of the autumn trees. everything seems a little more mellow. 







I really love the warm colours of autumn, that are also harvest colours. I love the warm orange of pumpkins and also the pretty warm yellows and dark greens. 







I love all the colours that come with Harvest and Autumn time, the deep reds, golds, dark greens and oranges.  They make the trees look gorgeous.




I LOVE harvest colours. Reds, russets and golds, the colours of autumn leaves.



I love the warmth of harvest colours, the golds, reds, and greens of ripe
fruit and vegetables, a season of plenty, a full table of tasty things,






Orange, yellow and brown are my favorite harvest colours.
The beautiful orange of the pumpkins and the ripe corn.  And of course the gorgeous colours of the leaves on the trees.


So now it's over to you.

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

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



I love wintry images and the excuse to use a little glitter on the snowy scenes.  I have far more Christmas images than any other theme, so I think that supports my claim that Christmas is my favourite theme to craft for!






ItÊ»s autumn for me.  I love the wonderful colors the leaves turn, the cool, crisp air and of course, football!




My favourite is Autumn, hands down, Autumn, the smell, the damp the colours, magical..






I prefer winter. I love long crafting nights making Christmas cards.






I have chosen autumn, although I also love winter when it is really cold and the skies are blue and the sun is shining. I love the pretty colours of the fall. Trees look amazing during the autumn months.




Crafting wise I much prefer to make winter/Christmas cards. They are the type where you have a good reason to use glitter, even though it never shows up very well on photos!




 I was born in February, so a winter baby, and actually LOVE cold and frosty mornings and dark nights in front of the fire or snuggled under the duvet when it's raining outside. Also, like Annette I have far more Christmas stamps and images than anything else!



With the exception of wasps, I love everything about autumn, the soft light, the gorgeous colours, sunny days but (in theory) cooler nights.  I don't even mind it getting darker earlier because I can be cosied up indoors!







Autumn for me. I really enjoy the changing colours of the leaves on the trees. 
I also like the smell outside. It gets dark earlier outside and I love to lit a candle inside while it's windy and raining outside. GEZELLIG!




So now it's over to you.
We hope you will join in our challenge and show us your style.
Don't forget, you MUST explain WHY it is your favourite to be eligible to win.

Good luck, and happy crafting.

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
Your Favourite Animal - Real or Fantasy (& why).
You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

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



I've always adored donkeys and Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh, so it wasn't a difficult choice for me.  I had a soft toy donkey when I was a baby and nearly 50 years later I still have him.  Thankfully I live close enough to the Sidmouth Donkey Sanctuary that I can visit real donkeys fairly often too. It's a great day out if you are ever passing.  Today I'll have to make do with a 2D version in the form of my donkey themed card.




Bears are a favorite of mine, not counting dogs or cats.  I love teddy bears because they are so soft and cuddly.  I know real bears are a different story, but you have to respect the tenacity of a mama bear protecting her cubs.






My beautiful Barry is my favourite animal, and my favourite fantasy friend.




My favourite animal is the hedgehog. My family have always had a soft spot for those little creatures. They have adorable faces and a lovely snuffling noise. So cute.






My favourite animal is a mouse. It was my nickname that my mother gave me when I was young. I think they look cute with their big ears. On this card I also used the favourite animal from my little nephew Niek. He loves crocodiles, so when I saw this image, I had to make a card with it.




I like lots of animals, but seeing as we have two of them, I have to say dogs are tops. They're such good company and so loyal and loving.




It's a real life horse or doggo for me. I am fortunate enough to have both in my life and so this occasion have dusted off an old horse stamp.


(so sorry I'm late!)  I love animals full stop, so this was a hard choice but I have gone
down the fantasy route with this one and chosen dragons.  My favourite dragons are
cute and colourful, and because they are fantasy they can be any colour you like.




I have a lot favorite animals but a cat is my number one. I love their attitude and the soft fur.  




So now it's over to you.
We hope you will join in our challenge and show us your style.
Don't forget, you MUST explain WHY it is your favourite to be eligible to win.

Good luck, and happy crafting.
