Introducing Linda and a New Challenge

Our Guest Designer for June is Linda McNulty. 

Linda will be sharing her Lelli-Bot projects via her blog http://www.lindamcnultys.blogspot.co.uk/ and the Lelli-Bot Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/600992436661725/

We thought a short "bio" introducing Linda would be a nice idea so here goes!

I'm 56 feel like a 40 year old but can't get my hands on one!! lol I have 3 grown up kids and 4 grandchildren. I'm a kinda semi-retired biker. I started making cards around 3 years ago, my sister made cards and thought I would give it a try. I had only been making cards for about three months when I entered The Quick Cards Made Easy magazine's 100th issue competition, there were 10 prizes up for grabs, well I was gob-smacked when a parcel arrived to say congratulations I was one of the 10 winners. Last year I entered Simply Cards and Papercraft magazine using the free item to make a card, this was a Christmas Tree die, my card was printed in the magazine so another prize arrived. When making cards I try to find out the hobbies of the recipient and incorporate them into the card. I get messages back saying "thank you they loved it" so if they are happy so am I. I like to think outside the box which you have seen with my cards and I'm about ready to make another one with a twist !!!

Now on to our regular feature - Make Of The Week

Our winner, with this beautiful card using Radiant Butterflies, is Linda Simpson.

I am sure you will agree it is a beautiful card, Linda as a previous winner you already have the Blog Badge which you can now display for a second time!

Now to our new Guest Designer Challenge.

****Lelli-Bot Crafts "Anything Goes" Challenge****

You can make anything you like but you must use something from the Lelli-Bot range on your project.

The challenge will close on 23rd June with the winner and Guest Designer for July being announced on the 25th June.

Please add your entries to the linky below.

Good luck!

Who Is Up For A Little Challenge?

Hello everyone and thank you for following us via our blog.

It has been a busy first month for us here at Lelli-Bot Lodge HQ. We have launched our first four kits which have received a great response and already have the next few kits designed and ready for release soon! We have been steadily gaining support on our Facebook page and within our Lelli-Bot Lovers group and thank you to everyone who has contributed by sharing their makes and friendly chit chat. Our products can now be found on various online stores, craft shops and at craft fairs and these outlets are continuing to grow. Our digi store is almost ready for launch too!

This month has also seen the launch of our amazing Design Team who have been working hard to make samples and designs from our products to help promote the company. Although the original Lelli-Bot Design Team has evolved and changed in the first few weeks, Helen, Lisa & Elaine are now a complete and united team.

However, we do have some more exciting DT news…. during the month of May, we would like to welcome a Guest DT Member! Fancy giving it a go? Details can be found below.
