Hi Everyone...and welcome to Challenge 12....
First we would just like to thank you all for the great response to last week's challenge..a little bit trickier perhaps but you certainly put your thinking caps on and came up with fabulous creations and also a big thank you to those of you who e-mail your projects in every week
Don't forget to check back later to see who has won
the fabulous "Penny Black Stickeroos"

Happy News from Penny Black Saturday HQ this week
CONGRATULATIONS.....
to BETH & JAMIE on their ENGAGEMENT
and we wish them all the best for a long and happy life together.
Thoughts now turn to wedding invitations and Penny Black hedgies
spring to mind - how cute would that be!!!!!


So...on to this week's CHALLENGE


STARS and STRIPES


this week we would like to see stars and stripes on your project and as always it is entirely up to you what you make - a card, ATC, altered art just as long as it features at least one Penny Black image.

This week the prize is sponsored by
FUNKY HAND
and is their latest download called

MINTY MADNESS




gorgeous papers 22 in all, one sheet of alphabets and one sheet of Star Toppers and Sentiments.


Pop over to the FUNKY HAND website and check out all the wonderful paper collections available either on CD or to download.

We hope you will join in the fun and look forward to seeing what you create.

To be in with a chance of winning this fabulous prize, just leave a comment with a link to your work so that we can come and visit you and then put your name in the draw

The winner will be announced next Saturday when we will be posting a new challenge.

If you don't have a blog, then e-mail us your work and we will happy to display it on the blog for you.

Once again our wonderful Design Team have worked their special magic and come up with great creations and Becky..Tracie..and Kath... have used papers from the Minty Madness download....click on the names of our Design Team and pay a visit to their blogs for lots more inspiration.
