December Winner's Post!

Well, a momentous start January.

We can only hope that the year settles down  - and that we find peace and happiness with our family and friends, including our on-line friends all over the world.

This post - the second one in the challenge - is always to announce the winner for the previous month. Yippee! However, before then I need to let you know of some changes in the DT for 2015.

We have lost several DT members - Margaret and Jane  - and wish to salute them and wish them well! Thank you for all your work for this blog.

Tracey F has been accepted on the DT for Heartfelt Creations (Congratulations Tracey!) and as a consequence has her hands very full at the moment. She is taking leave for a few months and we wish her well and cannot wait for her to come back to work with us again!

So, there were gaps again!
We therefore welcome to the team a new DT member


Jen Leeflang

Please go to her blog and leave lots of love.

We can probably do with another 2 or 3 new members so if you are interested in being on the DT please email me!

We are also looking for possible Sponsors for 2015 and would love to hear from you about that - but remember - we are not a stamping challenge!

NOW

Challenge #42 for December was 

Summer Fun

It was  Sponsored by Bizzy Bec

 and she  offered us 

this die as a prize for the winner.

The DT Favourite is

a Hot Christmas didn't happen for me - it was overcast and about 20 degrees! But this card has some hot colours going in it!

Congratulations to both crafters. I have been in touch, so if there is no email from me, check the junk mail and then contact me!

Our current challenge for January is

#43 Thanks

has a twist of incorporating something from outside your window

You don't have to do the twist BUT it would be so much more fun if you did!

Here is some inspiration - two ways to use photographs in your work!

Karen Briely

What a great layout and so topical at the moment too - with flood and drought almost side by side in this big land of ours.

Karen's use of a photo is better than mine, but I just wanted to show that with a bit of decoration you can incorporate a photo into a card as well!

Susan

This is the last sunset of 2014 from my window 

Well, there you have it - winner's and words and some more inspiration to spur you on to create - wait till you see what is coming next week! Amazing stuff!

Welcome to 2015!

Happy New Year to all our followers!

Well, a new year! I hope everyone got all that they wanted for Christmas, if that is your celebration - and that the end of 2014 and the beginning of 2015 went smoothly and was enjoyable!

We had lots of entries for December, and will be announcing the winner next week, so check back then to see if your name is here.

In the meantime, we have a new challenge for January.  It is a time to be grateful for all the things received in December, and some nice Thank You cards are always useful. So that is the challenge - to create a Thank You card/tag without using a stamp (digital or rubber or clear). You can use any other medium but NO STAMPS!

The TWIST for the first challenge of the new year is to indicate where you live by incorporating something from just outside your window, and blog about it.

The sponsor for this challenge is myself!

I will be offering a gift voucher to the value of $25 Aust on Stampin' Up products - please note this will include the postage to where-ever the winner lives as well!

We have some inspiration from some of the team to encourage you to enter this
