Textural- Ribbon and lace!

Hello everyone, it's my turn once again to set a challenge- how quickly time flies!

Firstly I would like to welcome our TWO new Guest Designers for the month of December. I hope you have fun with the challenges and enjoy your time with us- we are all looking forward to seeing your creations.

Right, let's get on with the challenge. As you may notice if you ever look at my blog- I love texture and I want to see loads of it. As well as using at least one Charmed Download there must also be some ribbon and/or lace on your creations.

Just look at what the Design Team have come up with...loads of wonderful, scrummy texture. Looking forward to seeing lots more so make sure you pop back and tell us about your creations.

Sunday Sunday.......

Oh, lots of news and excitement going on...I do hope I don't forget anything!!! Right Adele...no waffling , let's get straight on with it!

First things first! It's time to to thank Guest Designer Ruth who has shown us some lovely creations over the past few weeks and announce who will be joining us for the coming weeks.

Drum roll...........And for our next Guest Designer........please give a warm welcome to LEA!!!!! Watch out below for the first of Lea's creations. Well done Lea.

Right, next I will tell you about this week's challenge which is;

Black, white and a splash of .........COLOUR!!!

I want your creations this week to include one or more of the Charmed Download images and to be only 3 main colours. Black, white and one colour of your choice. You can use as many tones of grey and of your chosen colour and you can obviously use a skintone and haircolour ( I am feeling generous! LOL )but that's it.

After coming up with the idea I wondered if it could work, Dottie and George images are usually so bright and cheery.....but looking at the images again there are many out there that would work.....not forgetting the cats and of course the stunning NEW Animal Magic Collection.

The Design Team have come up with some stunners as usual so take a look at their individual blogs for further details.

Good morning everyone, what a beautiful day it is here, and abouut time too I say! On this lovely bright new day I'd like to introduce our new guest designer, our own little ray of sunshine, well, on loan for two weeks anyway and then we have to give her back It's......Becky! I've been admiring Becky's work for some time now, she's got a great eye for colour and design and every single card she makes is oozing in WOW factor, in fact if she was on 'The Crafty Wow Factor' Simon Cowell would be showing us his pearly whites , and that's for sure!

I just had to show you this picture of Becky, with her little boy Dylan because it makes me smile every time I visit her blog and see it. (Sorry Becky I couldn't help myself-I made it nice and small) I bet it makes you smile too right? Thank you for agreeing to be our guest designer Becky xx

Ok on to some more news, I've just finished another new collection! YAY, it's 'Halloween' one and it's very spooky so I hope you don't scare too easily........Boo! LOL. Here's a sneaky peek....
