Here is some info about the Challenges......

1. You do NOT need to use Pan Pastels or our other products on your entries as long as you follow the challenge theme - obviously we'd love you to use the products but realise not everyone has them.
Each challenge runs from Sunday 8.00 am and ends the following Tuesday at noon GMT - this gives you 9 days to add your entry and join in with us. 

The winner of each challenge will be chosen at random by a random number generator.
Please note: Due to postage costs the Random Winner Prize will be posted to a UK postal address only - but overseas entries are still welcomed and will be included in the Top 3.
In addition to the random winner the Design Team will also choose their favourite Top 3 entries for that week who will all be able to proudly display their winners badge and may be asked to Guest Design for us. Overseas entries are welcome and will be included in our Top 3.

So we hope you like the changes and it has made it easier for you all to enter!

So this is what I have made....

I have altered a foto frame....I just love to alter anything I can get my hands on....and when you read the text underneith the picture you can find out what I did with it......

I've used the Gesso and the fabulous A4 butterfly stencil with roses with Light Modelling Paste to make the texture on the frame. The Metallic PanPastels were used on top of the frame and give the frame a shine. The wooden hearts are worked on with Metallic PanPastels and Crackle to give it a fragile look. I really love that look on the hearts....

The background in the frame has lots of texture from a honeycomb stencil and a sentiment stamp. On top I played with the Metallic PanPastels. The butterflies are from Wendy Vecchi and I played with Embossing Powder and Utee to finish them. 

This is the side of the frame, so you can see how it looks like that......(and that it is really a frame lol...)

The background from the frame is also worked on with distress inks and butterfly papers from Tim Holtz....

And did you see the little butterfly stamp at the bottom..hehee I did not use that one in a longgggggg time....it is my own handmade by Terry Stamp wohoooo see I told ya I just love butterflies....

So are you curious what the projects from my amazing teamies look like guys....then I suggest you come over to the PREMIUM CRAFT BRANDS BLOG and check out all the fabulous projects..your gonna love them....Have loads of fun and offcourse were very curious what your about to make ....

Hugs Terry
