Hi Susan here....

Thank you to everyone who entered our last challenge 'Love'....your creations were amazing.

I would like to give a special mention to two young crafters and their work from challenge 58

# 190 Carly B aged 13


# 123 Rebecca aged 9


These are absolutely gorgeous and for such young crafters I was amazed.

So, it is the start of a new challenge and the theme is

'MONOCHROMATIC'

This is such a favourite of many people....we want to see your creations using one colour and the various shades of that colour. Whether it is black and white or any other colour, it must just be one colour and its many shades. We will let you off with skin tones but everything else must follow the rules of monochrome.

Our sponsor for this challenge is -

The Stamping Bazaar - all the fabulous images have been designed by Marina Neira 

and you can see them all plus many special offers at The Stamping Bazaar Store.

We are all looking forward to seeing all your wonderful creations again for this challenge, in the meantime my very talented Design Team have come up with some fabulous inspiration for you all.

Hi Everyone Susan here....

Before I start on the new challenge details I would like to announce that we are holding a DT call.

We are looking for several new members to join our team, would you like to be considered for a DT position on this fast growing, fun and creative blog?

If so, please submit you entry to this challenge as usual in the Inlinkz below, but, REMEMBER you MUST also include 'DT' after your name so that we know you want to be considered.

The DT call will run for the two weeks of this current challenge, closing on Saturday 10th December at 19:00.

Well now shall we get on with our usual challenge, the last one 'No Straight Edges' proved to be a bit more confusing than we thought it would be....we thought we had explained the theme of the challenge but still lots of you got it wrong, sorry about this but we have to play fair to all those who entered and followed the theme correctly. So if you didn't follow the challenge theme correctly then you will not have been entered for the random draw.

The winner has now been picked by the random generator and I can announce that it is......drum roll please!
