Dreamtime Craft Supplies

Hello friends,

For what seems the longest time I have been busy in the background with creating my new online paper craft store Dreamtime Craft Supplies. Finally, I am happy to announce that the store has now launched :)  

Dreamtime Craft Supplies isn't like any other store! It has been designed and structured specifically for you, my friends, that are avid paper crafters who like to create and add your designs and projects to your blogs on a regular basis.

The special feature that is launching in early 2016 is something to get excited about! Many of you will appreciate and will realise the massive potential behind the opportunity which will help you to montetise your craft blogs but also bring you more traffic in a big way! Go check it out.

Yesterday, I also launched the new Dreamtime Craft Supplies blog and to celebrate I am hosting a blog candy event. Lots of wonderful goodies up for grabs that you can win! All you need to do is visit the blog & enter. Come and join in on the fun :)

I hope to see you there.

xx Lisa xx

Dreamtime Designs Challenge Winner!

Hello Friends :)

Wow, it has been quite a while since I have been here.

My apologies for being away. Many of you probably thought that I wouldn't be back but as you know life tends to get in the way sometimes & we simply have little or no control over it.  However, it feels great to be back :)

There are a few things that have changed since the last time I was here.  Unfortunately, I am sorry to say that one of the changes was ending our Dreamtime Designs Craft Challenges.  I knew that I would be away for a few months so I had to do the right thing by the Design Team & myself by closing the challenges.  It was pretty hard to close it all down but at least the ladies & I still stay in touch via our Facebook group which is great.

In saying that, I offer my deepest apologies for causing any inconvenience to all of you for not announcing the winner of Challenge #3 any earlier.

Today, right now I will let you know who the winner is.  Are you ready?

We had a FABULOUS sponsor

Through the Craftroom Door

offering the winner a full 12 month subscription to their magazine.

Thank you so much Colleen :)

The WINNER is:

 #1 - Lisa S

from

Adventures In Cardland 

Congratulations Lisa S.

Please contact me with your email address within 7 days to claim your prize :)

-----------------------------------------------

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the DDCC Design Team.  Thank you ladies for all of the great designs you created for the challenges & for all of the support you gave me when I was going through that rough time.  I am ever-so grateful to all of you.

A very special thank you to my friend Roberta for looking after the team, my blog & everything else that you did while I was away.  Thank you so much hun & I hope you get better soon xx

I would also like to thank all of you who participated & followed us through our wonderful venture :)  It was so much fun & I hope you had fun too.

Thank you so much everyone.

-----------------------------------------------



I have so much great news to tell all of you but until then how about some
FREE blog candy?

I will be back soon with another post showing you what candy you could win.  So make sure you keep a look out for it :)  See you then...

Hugs xxx

DDCC Challenge #3 EXTENDED!!

Hello and Happy New Year everyone!!

All of us at Dreamtime Designs would like to wish you a blessed and crafty 2014!

This is Roberta posting again for Lisa.

She is busy planning a wedding!

The entire Design Team is absolutely ecstatic for her and her love, Bez.  We hope that the joy of their big day is only the beginning of the happiness they share ever after.

I'm happy to tell you that we are extending Challenge #3.

The gals on the DT have been discussing it.  We decided that because so many of you were probably lucky enough to get some new crafting goodies over the past couple of weeks that this would be a great time for you to try them out.

A little reminder of the theme of Challenge #3:

My Techniques:

A Technique I've Never Tried Before

Previously, we had included a Christmas twist to the theme.  That has now been eliminated to allow any projects to be eligible.  As long as you are using a new technique and tell us what that technique is, you're good to go!

We are also going to allow for 2 entries per person on this challenge.  All other rules remain the same.  You can check those out here.

Our prize will remain the same for Challenge #3.  We are so lucky to be able to offer a one year subscription to

A subscription to Through the Craft Room Door includes scores of fabulous tutorials and great inspiration pieces.  You will also gain access to dozens of free digis that have been featured in previous issues.  The value of the digis alone makes your subscription price a huge value!!

Now, what are you waiting for!?  Go get those new toys tools and get to work.  With the holidays beginning to appear in our rear view mirrors, we might just have time to begin creating and trying out those new techinques!  All of the Design Team is really excited to see what it is that you are going to try.

Have fun and be sure to come back and share it with us!

For anyone looking for a great new light box, please check out Mrs. A's project...she did a bang up job!!

Lisa came up with a fabulous theme for you to play with during December!!

My Techniques - Christmas:

A Technique I've Never Tried Before

This challenge revolves around the theme of Christmas & expanding your skills with a brand new technique you have never tried before but yet always wanted to.

A couple of things that we would like to see included in your post are:

1) Why did you want to try this technique?

2) What has been your experience with it?

>>Please note that the questions are an important part of the challenge.  They need to be included along with your answers in your blog post.<<

Here are the DDCC Design Team & their projects :)

You will notice that there is only a sneak peek so you will need to click on the image which will take you to their blog to see their completed project.  Don't forget to leave a comment on their challenge post as they have worked extremely hard on their projects & they would love to know what you think on their take of the challenge.

**I've only had access to the sneak peeks too so I'm ready to see all of the completed projects!!**

Designette Joanne

Joanne's project didn't go quite the way she had hoped.
She is a hugely talented lady so this is proof that even the best among us can have a rough time at a new technique.
Please go take a look at her post....
the amount of work she put into this was amazing.
All of the DT sisters are just so disappointed for her!
But we know a determined woman like Joanne
will be back at it as soon as she can!!!
Can't wait to see the next go 'round.

Some pretty intriguing peeks, right?

Go take a complete look at all of the projects and then get to work on yours!  We can't wait to see what you all come up with for this super fun challenge!!
