Happy New 2020 to you All!

Happy New Year!

May all the Peeps have a great finale to the old year and a fabulous new one!

A time of new beginnings and old friends

We at Unstampabelles are saying Goodbye to several of 

our fabulous Design Team

(If you are interested in joining us, just send me an email

suhoganatgmaildotcom)

Leslie and Cathy are both moving on to other things in their life

We have loved having both of them and their

absolutely fabulous contributions to the Design Team's Inspiration

Thank you Leslie and Cathy and best wishes for your 2020!

We are taking a break here at Unstampabelles for the next month.

There will be no challenge until February.

There may be another post or two in January (still got to do the Winners for December!) but not for several weeks

- we all need time to recover and rest and get prepped for 2020!

See ya then!!!!

....and Happy Birthday to my hubby who turns 85 today!

Midway through Decembers Challenge#96: Starry, Starry Night

Hello People!

Getting close to Christmas now...and for those who celebrate this time of the year, life has speeded up a bit! I thought as I always do that I had plenty of time but it sorta ran away a bit - but I know by now everything will come out in the wash and not to stress too much. Luckily we are going to our daughter's place for Christmas lunch!

Well, the Challenge

Star Struck Starry Night

Challenge#95: Paradise Pretties and Tropical Delights

Hello Peeps

I know that in many tropical paradises, life is a little less paradise and a lot more hellish at the moment, especially in California and Australia.

(This is NOT my photo - it can be found on the ABC site))

Please stay safe from the fires

My heart is sore and my stomach is tight

I am so angry at people who do nothing about climate change

but I cannot talk about it as it will make me rant and cry

Stay safe....

Also to those who are experiencing floods and wild weather in the northern parts of our world.

The challenge blog is midway through our monthly challenge

Fabulous work from all entrants - thanks for your efforts

Let's make an effort to enter this month!

It is hard to run a challenge blog and keep it going month after month.

Not many offer such a lucrative prize either as this one.

With only a minimum of entrants each months one gets a bit dispirited.

People seem only to want to do the same thing over and over again.

If you have any ideas on this, please feel free to comment!

The Design Team have come to the call again this week with some amazing inspiration.
