Challenge #76 - ribbon & pearls

Hello everyone!

Thank you all for entering our "butterflies" challenge. There had been some really amazing entries... I will post the winners later on today, so come back to see who the winners are. I have some more sad news though  -  our teamie Agnieszka has left our team as well now. So we're short 2 people now... We will miss her wonderful creations, but we also wish her all the best for the future... 

Summer is fully here now and we have temperatures up to 30°C, so I spent a lot of time outside in the garden now, but I am also happily crafting in the evenings. So I hope that you also have time to craft a bit and will join us in our challenge  -  this month we would like to see your creations with "ribbon & pearls".

I've also got 2 very generous sponsors for this challenge, which are

Di's digi stamps

who's offering a $12 voucher to the winner

&

Dr. Digi

is offering 2 images of winner's choice

Welcome to the brilliantly bizarre brain of Dr. Digi's House of Stamps.  Here you will find monsters, aliens,

odd balls and Dundertons as well as many many more wonderful digital stamps for the crafter with a sense

of humour.

It would be nice if you could visit their blogs and leave some nice words for them.

Challenge #75 - butterflies + DT-call

Hello everyone!

I am so sorry for posting this challenge late. I completely forgot to finish this post yesterday  -  it's been Father's Day here in Germany and I've spent a lovely day with my Dad...

Well, it seems like you liked our embossing challenge  -  we've had some wonderful entries... I will post the winner later on today, so come back to see who the winners are.

First I have some sad news  -  our wonderful teamie Debby has left our team because of changes in her life. We will miss her, but we also wish her all the best for the future... 

So we are looking for another DT-member now. 
So if you're interested in joining our DT just add DT after your name when entering this challenge and I will come around and check out your blog.

What do you have to do as a DT member at Creatalicious Challenges:
You need to create one project per month (sometimes we get images to work with) and comment on the entries (everyone has an allocated number). That's about it...

As spring is turning into summer over here, we can see more and more buttflies fluttering around here and that's what I want to see on your cards this month  -  butterflies (at least one!I). You can use a butterfly image, butterfly die-cuts or even a butterfly charm, as long as it is a butterfly it counts...

I've also got 2 very generous sponsors for this new challenge, which are

Lacey from www.stampandcreate.com.
She is offering this fabulous gift cert. for the winner.

Challenge #74 - embossing wet or dry

Good morning everyone!
I can't believe that we had sooo many entries for our last challenge. 
You truly enjoyed our Anything Goes challenge. 
As I didn't get around to visit all your wonderful creations and leave you a comment, I will draw the winner on Monday (20th). So I, and the rest of the team, will have some more time to visit you all. I hope Random won't have a hard time chosing one of those amazing entries as a winner then.

Let's get back to the challenge though. This time we would like to see your projects that include some kind of embossing  -  it can be dry embossing or wet embossing  -  the choice is yours!
It would be nice if you mentioned which one you did, if we can't spot it straight away...

I've also got 2 very generous new sponsors for this new challenge, which are
