Good Morning !

What a fantastic number of entries we had to our challenge last week of Animal Antics. It was so lovely to see so many of our furry friends amongst us !


This week we want you to turn all the lights down, get the wine and choccies out, put some smoochy music on because.......

LOVE IS IN THE AIR !!


We want to see all your LOVEly creations with hearts and flowers and anything else you can think of which reminds you of LOVE !

As usual our lovely boss Heidi will be giving one lucky entrant a $50 spree to her Simon Says Stamp store and with all the goodies arriving soon from the CHA there will be loads of brand new stuff to choose from too !!! Woo Hoo !!! :-)



Here we have our LOVEly Design Team with lots of inspiration for you

















Please be sure to turn off word verification so our Design Team can leave you comments!!! It makes it SO much easier for us!!!! WE all LOVE to see your creations, and try to visit as many as we can! Word verification slows that down for us ! :-(


Link up your creation with Mr. Linky and HAVE FUN !!!!!

Simon Says.......Bingo !

Thank you so much to everyone who joined in with our sketch challenge last week ! Wow, you are all sooo talented !

This week we have a very different and interesting challenge for you. We are having a game of Bingo ! So, eyes down and off we go. Here is your bingo card......


So, for this challenge its simple ! You just choose 3 items that are in a straight line and it can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal so for instance you could choose brads, lace and gems or punch/die cuts, flowers and gems - simple ! If you need any further guidance, please look at the Design Team's cards that they have made this week and above each card it will tell you which line from the grid they chose.

For further inspiration, please check out the Allsorts Challenge Blog where they ran this same challenge a few weeks ago and it was a roaring success. Thank you so much to the Allsorts Challenge Blog for letting us use this idea and the grid.


This week, the prize is a WHOPPING $50 voucher from Simon Says Stamp Superstore!!! Whheeeeeehoooooo!!!!!! How exciting eh?? So, get out your stamps and start creating!!! We can't wait to see what you create!!!! Have a great week & good luck!
