Andrea: Here is my card for our Challenge Theme Buttons - I used one of the sweet Winston images plus some of the Digital Winston Sheets.  The image I coloured with my distress markers and a paint brush - I had some lovely cat buttons which I used to decorate my card for the theme "Buttons"....

Monica - I made my card to welcome Isabella´s, my friend Diana new baby girl and I used the adorable and just perfect Baby Boom Collection.....
Yvonne - I used a paper from the 'Winston' Collection and used it to decorate a cute little pizza box.  I cut out some of the ephemera buttons from the collection too for added decoration.....

Julia For my make this week I have used the gorgeous new Horace & Boo collection. The Balls of wool are an Embellishment in the big Kahuna kit. I have used a gel medium and layered embroidery thread over it to create the real texture of wool, then added some buttons and a few trusty paint splatters....
Julie - This was a tricky challenge for me, as I have a bit of a button Phobia!!, so as a compromise, I cut a button border on my Cameo to frame sweet Fairy Princess Helga....
Jane P -The team and I were challenged this week with the topic "Buttons" and what better collection to use than Winston.  For this weeks creation I used one of the designer sheets....
Anjie - I've used a design sheet from the beautiful Winnie Sugar Sprinkles collection. So of course the buttons are paper ones but I added some Glossy Accents to make them look more real....
Katrina~ Today I have a special gift bag with Sweet Helga BlushHelga paper, and Sentiment.  You can find all her papers, sentiments and more here.  My buttons are on the hat pins!...

Hester - I love Horace & Boo collection. So I have made a card with Sleepy pots Horace & Boo and the paper is from the Horace & Boo collection kit....
Jane S - I have also used the Horace & Boo Collection merging some of the digi stamps onto one of the toppers to create a scene and colouring with pencils. I have also added a ball of string and some die-cut buttons that hopefully look a bit like 'paws'....
Melissa - For my card this week I decided to use Tweedledum from the Winnie Wonderand Collection.  I have coloured the image with Copic Markers.  The background is paint and pigment ink with flowers and buttons to finish....
Ċ½eljka-For this week I use  Winston Bear from Winston Deluxe Full download collection and made card  in Decoupage technique...
Dawn - I used a design sheet from the  Winston Deluxe Full download collection and made card  in Decoupage technique....

So lets see what our Design Team have made this week....
Andrea: Here is my card for our Challenge "Thinking about Summer"  I have made a folded card with a front window.  The images I used are from the beautiful Twiggy -  Toot - Owl Digital Sheets 


Monica - Thinking about Summer, I made an envelope card that is full of dimension, but folds flat for posting. I loved to see Winnie and Rocco relaxing by the sun. I used Winnie Starfish & Sandcastles Collection...

Yvonne - I instantly knew what collection I wanted to play with this week and I went straight to 'Winnie Starfish & Sandcastles' and opted to use a design sheet for this challenge.  I opted to use Rocco and design sheet 8 - which you can find here.
Julia - I also had a play with Winnie Starfish & Sandcastles .. I also borrowed the film reel from Winnie Fruit Punch, Using Serif I have merged lots of the Starfish and Sandcastle images into the film reel ( you can get a closer look on my blog) .. In my head I was almost trying to make this look like a scrapbook page Winnie would have made...
Katrina ~ Thinking about summer over here means getting horses ready to show and onto the fairgrounds.  So, that made this week the perfect time to share this layout of my grand-girl and our miniature horse Charlie!  I chose to color up Horse Riding Digital Stamp (which can also be found in the Work and Play 6 Collection), make flowers from the Work and Play 12 (Science/Geek, etc), and use Quotes, Papers and Ephemera from Winnie in Wonderland.  More info and pics on my blog...
Hester - When I think of summer I think of sun and sea. On holiday you can find me in the sea. When they wave on a bodyboard, or new hobby Suppen.
For my card I used VIPXXL EDITION Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles Craft From this collection I used Rocco Swimming with sharks, Lifebuoy, Anchor, Lighthouse, starfish,Seashells, and flip flops
The sentiment is you get with tthe VIPXXL edition...
Julie - Thinking of summer, I remember climbing trees and chasing butterflies, so Treetop fun from Winnie Fruit Punch was the perfect image to use, I have made a twisted easel card and coloured her with Copics.

Anjie - I've used the fabulous Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles collection. You can also buy this on it's on as a design sheet here.
Pauline - I used a super topper from the adorable new Horace & Boo collection to create my card.  The papers and sentiment are also from the collection - the only things I added from my stash are the buttons...
Melissa - I have used Helga Hippo, Say Hi for this weeks inspiration.  I have coloured Helga with Copic Markers...
Jane S - I have used one of the gorgeous new Ula images that you can find here and sat her in the scene panel from Design Sheet 11 contained in the Winnie Starfish & Sandcastles bundle.
Dawn - I have used the Treetop Fun from Winnie Fruit Punch Big Kahuna Bundle  for my Summer theme card.

So lets see what our Design Team have made this week....
Andrea - My card our theme is Flowers - I used "Winnie Sugar Sparkles" as apart of my card.
My card has a angled pocket which I decorated with flowers and in the pocket is Winnie holding a bunch of flowers..
Katrina ~ I love to journal!  It's such a fun way to express myself and put down what's on my mind.   The flowers theme for the DT gave me a wonderful way to use all the flowers from the Winston Design Sheets.  This precious gardening bear is just too perfect with this quote!
Julie - What better image to use for a Flowers card, than one of the lovely Darling Buds, this week I have chosen Hyacinth, coloured with Copics.
Melissa - I just love using flowers on my cards.  For today's inspiration I have used Sharing is Caring from the Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Collection and have coloured her with Copic Markers.
Monica - When it comes to flowers, I love the lushness of Dollie Daydream Goes East Collection. I used the oriental screen box template included in it, also papers, flowers, embellishments, sentiment and of the course the lovely Dollie. I coloured my digi with Prisma Color pencils.

Hester - I made a garden of flowers with Dandelion days from Winnie Fruit Punch...


 
Yvonne - I had a look through my vast Polkadoodles collection and came across a page of flowers in 'Winnie Sugar Sparkles - Fruit Punch' Collection which you can find here.  I think you would find the floral sheet in the floral bundles here if you didn't want to buy the whole collection and I chose a sentiment from the 'Winnie sugar Sprinkles' Collection which you can check out here .

Anjie - I've gone for quite a CAS (Clean and Simple) make this week as I wanted to show off those beautiful flowers. They are from the Winnie Winterland download collection. Or if you wish you can just buy the foliage collection on it's own HERE, it does include the flowers as well. So who says a Christmas collection is just for Christmas? This proves it isn't don't you think. All the details are on my blog.


Julia - I found this Fabulous sentiment in the Daisy Days collection which I just HAD to use .. along with the gorgeous flowers and papers in the collection and have teamed it with the gorgeous Winnie Sugar Sprinkles - Bunting you can find her here or the full collection here & have coloured her up using Copic markers. Full details on my blog.
Jane S - I have used the cuter than cute Horace & Boo Collection for my 'flowery' make this week. All the elements are from this bundle and this super sweet image is called Sleepy Pots. I have coloured these adorable 'snoozers' with pencils.
Ċ½eljka-Hello!!!This week our DT theme was "Flowers" so I decide to  make  flower  wreath for my 5 year old daughters door.The flowers are from WORK & PLAY 12 BLOOMS BUNDLE KIT (76 ELEMENTS)
Pauline - I decided to use a cute topper from the adorable new Horace & Boo Bundle to create my card.  I printed one of the toppers several times so that I could decoupage it and used one of the scenes as a background, I also cropped one of the flowers to use as embellishments. I used three of the pretty papers from the collection along with a sentiment from the Belle Papillon CD.
Dawn - My card for our theme Flowers - I used "Winnie Sugar Sparkles" on my card.
Jane P- My card this weeks theme is May Flowers.....what better collection to use than Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime Collection.

Great work from the team!
