Crafting montage

 

Not a great start to 2023 with getting the dreaded lurgy. Just about feeling back to some semblance of myself now.

It's Mervi's turn to host the Allsorts challenge this week. She has chosen the theme of "Something New" - just tell us what it is.

My "something new" are all of the items in this frame. I saw a similar thing done with a kit by this company (doodlebug design inc. odds & ends, cute and crafty) but as it was only available from the USA that was out of the question due to postage costs etc. I managed to source the elements by the same company in the UK and then made my own smaller version. I then popped it into a deep frame I already had. 

It's now on display in my craft room, providing a lovely burst of colour. I've loads of elements left over though - so watch out for many makes using them.

There are still prizes to be won and of course the weekly top 5 announcement. We are just going to be announcing the winners once a month from now on. This makes life much easier for posting.

This month’s prizes come from Oakwood, Stamp Addicts, Sizzix and AALL and Create, these links take you to their individual websites and you can read more about each on our Patrons’ page here.
