Hello!
Welcome to the November Challenge!
We were all very impressed with the entries for the October Challenge, you all really outdid yourselves! Can't wait to see how you tackle the theme for this month!
In the December issue of Craft Stamper, Georgina Ford has created a georgeous Christmas card. Some of the stamps she has used are not exactly Christmas themed, but she has turned them into some stunning Christmas imagery! This is the theme for the November Challenge....
Use a non Christmas stamp to create a Christmas themed image!
This may sound complicated, but once you get thinking, I'm sure you will dream up all manner of wonderful creations. To give you a head start, the DT have excelled themselves and come up with some fabulous ideas for you to share!
Before the eye candy though, there is the not-so-small matter of the prizes!
We are delighted to be sponsored this month by The Artistic Stamper
