Challenge #30 - Spring Fling with Delicious Doodles

Wow! What fabulous dark themed creations we had entered in the last LOC Creative Challenge - it's great to see so many of you embracing your dark side! I think we will be aiming for a few more 'dark' challenges to get your creative juices flowing! Join us next Friday for the winners!

A bit of Crew news before we announce the new challenge. We have said au revoir to two of our team in the last few weeks for personal reasons and we just want to say good luck and best wishes to both Lorraine and Jo - much love from Mo and the Crew! xxx 

This fortnight our theme is 'Spring Fling' - you can interpret this anyway you see fit but if it's not clear, please explain the link in your post! We have the fabulous Delicious Doodles sponsoring this challenge and the LOC Crew have had the pleasure of using some amazing images for your inspiration.


Here are Team A wish some fabulous projects!

PennyRae using Snowdrop Fairy

Challenge #28 Winners and Midway Reminder for Challenge #29

Wow! That was a quick week - Cant believe I am writing up another LOC Winners post! Hope you all have your fingers crossed! We were, as always, blown away with the standard of entries to the last challenge #28 Ribbons and/or Flowers sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs and the team have been voting for our favourites all week.

Just before I announce the winner, we have been discussing the numbers of entrants who are entering dozens upon dozens of challenges at a time. We appreciate that we are probably not high on many participants list of challenges to enter, and realise that many people entering at LOC do so as a direct result of visiting PaperPlayful and presumably seeking out specific challenge themes from there. We would like to think that we offer excellent prizes from our fabulous sponsors and that our themes are challenging, diverse and open to crafters of all styles. We love the darker side of crafting but as past winners have proven, it's not just the LOC entries that could win the prizes. We are, therefore, imposing a new rule from challenge #30 beginning next week. There will be a maximum number of other challenges that you can combine your entry with to be considered for the top prize. We will continue to highlight this and remind you for the next few weeks. Thanks!!

Ok, with that out of the way, here are the winner and Top 5 from Challenge #28!

 
Top 5

Thank you to everyone who entered! Carla, my contact details are at the top left of the blog and everyone can take a featured artist badge for your blogs! 

 Now on to our current challenge - #29 Anything Goes with a Dark Theme!

Lisa using Brad Nailed Zombie

Kay using Witch Splat Cupcake

Susan using Whootie-Owls

I hope this has given you something to think about and some inspiration! Hope you can join in the fun!
