Cupcake 170... Colouring on Kraft

Morning All.

I hope your weekend included some sunshine and you weren't blown away?! Ok, it's not summer, but it's still nice to get outside if it's a little warm and dry...

Thank you so much for joining our Teenage Boy Challenge last week. Your projects were amazing and we loved visiting your inspiring Blogs.

This week, Donna has chosen our Challenge, and there was a little head scratching over at The Cupcake Factory:

Cupcake 169... Teenage Boys

Morning Cupcake Lovers. I hope you had a fab weekend? That 'C' word is getting all the closer now isn't it?! But don't worry about that now, have a little Cupcake first! Go on, you know you want to...

Ooooh, you are a naughty bunch. There were a lot of cheeky entries last week and some projects that really hadn't followed our Challenge at all... naughty, naughty! ;) Please be sure to check all the details, as we hate disqualifying entrants. Anyway, that was last week. This week, we know, you know, Santa is watching!

And I have a little happy news to share. We asked one of our Guest Designers, Keeley, to come and play with us all the time. You really must check out Keeley's work. She often burns the night oil, creating fabby projects with amazing details. We're very lucky to have her join us. :)

So, this week, Denise has chosen a nice, simple Challenge for you:

... Teenage Boys ...

Teenage Boys are a bit difficult and tricky aren't they? And trying to get a project right for them is even worse, but, nonetheless, that's what we'd like you to do!

You have until 8pm, GMT on Sunday 27 November to place your entry for this challenge. Have fun.

****************************************

We have a Winner for last weeks sponsored Challenge and we’ve also chosen our Cupcake Cuties.

Here are the winners:

Cupcake 168... Two's Company

Well good morning again Lovelies. I hope you had a fab weekend and are ready for another Cupcake?! By the way, is anyone else worried by the fact that Christmas is now only about five weeks away?

Your Textalicious creations last week were all fantastic. I know Maarit had a terrible job picking the Cuties! Thanks so much for joining the fun with us.

So, without further ado, Delphine has chosen a great Challenge this week:

... Two's Company ...

We'd like you to use two or more images of boys, girls or a mix of both on your projects. The idea is to have multiple characters on your work, coming from the same stamp or different stamps. A person and an animal won't count, but fairies and angels are ok.

You have until 8pm, GMT on Sunday 20 November to place your entry for this challenge. Have fun.
