Welcome to our October challenge plus some exciting news which I will tell you about right away.

Now for our October theme which is..................

******Get ahead for Christmas******

I know lots of you are already well into your Christmas cards and others like me need a gentle nudge so it's the perfect opportunity to join in. Usual rules apply, you can enter up to three times, combine with other challenges, use any make of stamp, but no digi images and we must see some stamping as the focal element of our work. Any entries failing to meet the rules may still receive comments from the DT but will not be eligible for the prizes on offer.

Again lots of awesome prizes from our wonderful sponsors and don't forget that every month the Design Team select one person from entries using a Penny Black stamp to join us as a Guest Designer..............
