I hope you’re all ready for another new challenge. There’s been quite a few recently but there’s always room for another one – right?
This one will be set every other friday and I hope you’ll be able to join us. As you can see in the challenge rules, you don’t have to use Crafty Ann’s products to take part, you can use anything you like.
We have a wonderful Design Team (aka Ann’s Dream Team!!) who can’t wait to show you all their creations so please join us on Friday November 6th for our very first challenge. The designers have their own page which you can click on above so that you can put names to faces and there’s a link to each of their blogs in the left hand side bar. Do please pay them a visit, their blogs are full of inspiration and you won’t be sorry – but you may wish to take a cuppa with you when you visit, you could be there some time!
To celebrate our first challenge there will be a prize for one lucky person. The winner will receive any 5 digi stamps and and 5 backing paper collections of their choice. Currently there are 12 backing paper collections and 18 digi stamps – although there will most likely be more to choose from by the time the winner is announced. You can check out what you might win on the pages at the top of the blog, and they are available to purchase at Crafty Ann’s now
What’s more, you can have more than one entry! How? Well…..
-
add a post to your blog with a link back here to let people know about the new challenge and leave a comment here with a link back to your post to let me know you’ve done it – that will get you one entry,
-
put the sidebar logo in the side bar of your blog and that will get you another (again, let me know you’ve done it)
-
and for a third entry, make sure you remember to join in with the challenge!
As a separate thing, we’ll have a new Guest Designer each month and if you would like to be considered for the January GDT spot, remember to put GDT in the title of your post for your challenge entry.
I hope to see you all on the November 6th and look forward to loads of fun – please go and spread the word, thank you!
