Challenge 215

Today's challenge is to decorate a corner on your design -
or 2, 3 or 4 corners if you wish

Once again this week there are four opportunities to win a prize - as usual, winners will be chosen randomly.

The first sponsor  is Craftybren's Embroidered Embellishments:

'Hi my name is Bren, I have been crafting since the year dot. I like to have a few different things on the go at once, knitting, sewing, paper crafting etc, just so I can swap and change around a bit.
I made a few cards with my machine embroidery on, and was asked if I made embroidery to sell, that is how Craftybrens was born. Hope you like what you see.'

The randomly chosen winner will receive £10 of goods from Craftybren's Embroidered Embellishments - please note that if the winner lives outside the UK he/she will be expected to pay for the P & P.

The second sponsor is new to CHNC: StitchyBear's DIgi Outlet:

Please look down the sidebar on the right to see all of the sponsors that I have waiting in the wings to give out prizes during this year. I am so thankful for everyone that is so generously coming on board to support me.

As usual on the first Saturday of the month, the challenge is sponsored by Craftybren's Embroidered Embellishments and, once again, Bren is my guest designer with this wonderful card featuring some of her beautiful embroidery - you can read more about it here - please visit.

For my card I used the Stitchy Bear Stamps 'snow corner' digital image, kindly supplied by them as one of our sponsors this week. I created the card digitally, colouring parts of the snowman, adding the lettering and the lyrics to 'Frosty the snowman'.  You can read more about this here on My Crafty Outlook. Sorry that this isn't as clear as I'd like it to be, but time has been limited with John still in hospital.

Now it's over to you. As usual, you can use any materials, any techniques - and this week please decorate a corner on your design - or 2, 3 or 4 corners if you wish.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with for this challenge - please add a link to your blog post (not your blog, but the actual post where your card can be found) by 22:00 UK time Friday 13 February 2015. Please include a link to this blogpost within the post for your creation.

You can enter as many times as you wish  and also link to any other challenges that allow you to do so, but new work only, please.

A new challenge will be set on Saturday 14 February 2015 when there will be three chances to win a prize, thanks to generous sponsors.
