Freebie! Challenge Competition No 7 'Love & Marriage', Winner of No 6 & The New DT

FREE 'love' please take and enjoy!
See Kim's idea...
Competition No 7 - 'Love & Marriage'
  • With the wedding season well under way this fortnights challenge is to create an item (card or other eg, tag, bookmark, wedding stationery..) on the theme of 'LOVE &/OR MARRIAGE'
  • The prize is a Bee Crafty image of your choice (exc. PDFs & sets)!
  • Deadline Midday Saturday 4th July (UK time.)
  • As usual you must include a bit of digital somewhere, it doesn't have to be a Bee Crafty image, however I am giving away the freebie above if you want to use that, please take it from the blog and enjoy (just click on it to enlarge then save to your computer )
  • Spread the word!
Trixi's gorgeous design below should inspire. She has used the 'bay tree' from Bee Crafty's wedding range and letters from the 'Birdy Alphabet'



And from Christine

NEW STYLE COMPETITION!!
Now my download shelves are well stocked, I'm going to focus on a new look competition. The prize will still be any one of my downloads (with the exception of PDFs and Sets) but I am removing the condition to buy, or even use one of my downloads. I hope lots of you will get involved, please take any of my badges to add to your own blogs and spread the word :)
The new rules are these;
1) Each fortnightly competition will be based around a theme (with the occasional freebie!)
2) Any craft project is allowed - cards, bookmarks (see Trixi's fantastic example in the Designer Spot) tags, really anything you can think of!
3) Your design must include a bit of 'digital' somewhere...anywhere, it could be the main theme or tucked away in a corner or inside. You can use anyones downloads, not just Bee Crafty's.
* Tip: consider entering several different creative challenges with one item*

This fortnights COMPETITION No. 6 (see rules above and right) is...
Theme - Use letters, numbers and/or words e.g., Happy Birthday tag, Age Card, Monogram bookmark...Deadline Midday (UK) Friday 19th June (day earlier than usual.)

This is what it would involve...
