Challenge #2 ~ EMBOSSING


Thank you to everyone that entered our very first challenge last month, myself & the DT really enjoyed visiting all of your blogs & seeing the amazing talent out there!
Congratulations to our very 1st winner chosen by Random.org
Congratulations Liesbeth S
You win the prize & Winner badge
Please email me with your postal address Lisbeth & I will get your prize in the post & grab your winners badge
The DT members found it very hard to choose just one entry for the DT TOP PIX badge, but we finally managed to reduce it down to just 2 entries.
Congratulations to Eileen & Sue N 
Thank you ladies, please grab your DT Top Pix badge
There were 33 eligable entries in last months challenge, but sadly I had to delete 3 because they either didn't meet the requirements of the challenge, link back to us or thier blog settings denied us access.
Please double check for future challenges, because we hate for anyone to loose out!

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

Our challenges have 3 genres, Cardmaking, Scrapbooking & Digi Scrapping.
You may enter once for each genre, but please link to each entry .... This makes it so much easier for the DT to find your entries.
It would also be of great help us if you would remove word verification on your blog please!
To be eligible to win the prize, you must follow the rules closely [challenge rules tab above]
After adding your entry to the link widget below, please post a comment too, this is just an extra fail safe should the widget stop working for some reason.
The prompt for challenge #2 is
Embossing
This can be Dry Embossing, using a die cut machine or a light box
or Heat Embossing, embossing powder & heat gun.
You can also buy pre embossed cardstock or even improvise by creating your own embossed effect, like a couple of the DT members have done!
The digi scrappers have joined in by using the embossing tool.
Here is this months prize[drawn by random.org]

Welcome to The Cupboard Trilogy's 1st Challenge...

Myself & the Design Team would like to welcome you & are so pleased to see you all here for the launch of our new monthly challenges.
Our challenges have 3 genres, Cardmaking, Scrapbooking & Digi Scrapping. You may enter once for each genre, but please link to each entry .... This makes it so much easier for the DT to find your entries.
It would also be of great help us if you would remove word verification on your blog please!

To be eligible to win the prize, you must follow the rules closely [challenge rules tab above]
After adding your entry to the link widget below, please post a comment too, this is just an extra fail safe should the widget stop working for some reason.

Our 1st Challenge is a COLOUR PALETTE

 The rule for this challenge is to use a minimum of 3 of the colours from the palette shown, use more if you wish & of coarse the addition of black & white is allowed!

The colours you choose can be plain colours, patterns or a mix of both!
You may add anything to your project as long the colours fit the palette shown below.

I know that different computer screens predict actual colours slightly differently, so for simplicity, I have named the colours for this challenge as:
Sage Green, Peppermint, Soft Coral, Warm Beige, Warm Pink & Raspberry



 This months Prize is this lovely kit put together by
Sarahs Cards containing Websters Pages

 

*Closes at 6pm on the 31st July*
                   
 Now you know how to take part, here is what the Design Team have created for you as inspiration!
