Challenge 11 - No Cards Allowed

Hi everyone and and welcome to Challenge 11

We would like to thank everyone for joining us last week and wow what an amazing week it was, we had a fantastic response to our Ribbon challenge and lots of wonderful creations by you all again - thank you for joining in the fun and sharing, we all love visiting your blogs.

I have a bit of sad news to tell you all, Tracy is stepping down for a while from Co-Ordinating the blog with me due to personal reasons. But the good news is she will still be on our DT so you'll still be able to see her wonderful creations.

I want to take this opportunity to say a BIG THANKYOU to Tracy for her wonderful ideas and creativity to the blog, I couldn't have done it without you hun, and hope you'll be back on board soon.

Jacqui and Kath are coming on board to help me with the blog, which is great as Im not sure I'll manage on my own, lol
So thanks girls, I know you'll both be a great asset and hopefully we'll still keep our idea's fresh and inspire you all to come back each week.


Don't forgot to come back later and see who won our fabulous download from Polly Craft


Ok onto this weeks Challenge

No Cards Allowed


I know this is a tricker one than last week, but we want you to get your thinking caps on.

You can make anything you like Bag, Note Book, Box, Candle, Tag, Tin etc but NO CARD please, and your creations MUST feature at least one Penny Black Image.



This week we have some more fabulous stickers for one lucky winner:







We hope that you will join in the fun and look forward to seeing your wonderful creations. To be in with a chance to win these fabulous goodies just leave a comment with a link to your work and we will put your name in the draw. The winner will be announced next Saturday.

Don't forget we will be posting a new challenge every Saturday. If you don't have a blog, then email us your work and we will be happy to put it on the blog.


Here is some inspiration from our Design Team - wow girls you all did fabulous work again this week. Don't forgot to check out their blogs too for more fabulous work.

I really enjoyed this one, and used some PB stamps that I've never really used before - they're more decorative, really!
