Thank you to all who have entered our challenge over the past 12 months and we look forward to seeing all your fab makes again in the New Year!

Thanks also to everyone who played along last week with Domi's sketch,there were some truly fabulous cards but we can only have one winner of the 1-2-3 Stitch $20 voucher and that lucky crafter is....

Number 12 - Tania (Java Bean)

Congraulations!! Please contact Kath who will sort you out with all the details of the prize.

Now for the challenge! We're thinking you may have finished your Christmas cards for this year so this weeks challenge is:

Make a Tag!

Nice and simple!

As always it is up to you what you create...the only RULE being that you use at least ONE PENNY BLACK IMAGE...LARGE SENTIMENT OR STICKEROO AS A MAIN FOCUS.

All you need to do to enter is leave your name and a direct link to your entry with Mr Linky so that we can come visit you and if you don't have a blog...just e-mail your entry to Kath and she will pop it on the blog for you and you will also qualify for the prize draw.

And there is the prize from the Penny Black Design Team this week!

Congratulations! Please email Kath who will make sure you get your fabby prize.

This week we have a sketch for you to try....

Our lovely team mate Domi did the sketch for us, isn't it a good one?

Now remember you can reverse it or flip it. We don't mind as long as we can see the basic shape.

As always it is up to you what you create. The only RULE being that you use at least
ONE PENNY BLACK IMAGE, LARGE SENTIMENT or STICKEROO. All you need to do to enter is leave your name and a direct link to your entry with Mr Linky so that we can come visit you and if you don't have a blog you can e-mail your entry to Kath who will pop it on the blog for you, you will be allocated a number in Mr Linky and will therefore qualify for the prize draw.

And talking of prizes...
a huge thank you to our wonderful sponsors for their generosity in providing this week's prize. Yes one lucky winner, who will be chosen at random, and announced next Saturday will receive a $20 voucher to spend at the 1-2-3 Stitch online store. There's loads of crafty stuff to choose from, including our favourite Penny Blacks!

And now it's time to share what we did with Domi's sketch.
