Easter Challenge

Well, are any of you up for it? I don't normally send Easter Cards but it seems that we are all in the doldrums at the moment and need something to cheer us up

I would love to organise it.

UCM

I would like to join in, I've missed a few now

Dior · 11/03/2006 09:30

I think I'll give it miss this time. Not into Easter Cards...will probably do the next one.

PeachyClair · 11/03/2006 11:10

yes please- as always.

Don't normally 'do' Easter cards so would be a good one to make me do it.

Wondered if JM was going to be too busy, thought she would- well done you. I don't mind organising a summer swap in May (goodies swap) as I finish Uni and have exams then so will need cheering up- will do a thread then unless JM posts she wants to do it.

jessicaandrebeccasmummy · 11/03/2006 11:27

not fo me im afraid.... not into easter cards either!

Yorkiegirl · 11/03/2006 11:28

could we have a theme other than Easter? I don't really do them either...

PeachyClair · 11/03/2006 11:34

Spring? Flowers? Butterflies? All pretty interchangeable anyhow imo.

Any theme OK with me.

JayzMummy · 11/03/2006 11:55

ermmmm....maybe check with AQ as she organises the challenges and may have something in the pipeline?????

Im up for a challenge BUT not Easter. How about something bright and cheery....a birthday card for a child???

AQ have you any plans???

jessicaandrebeccasmummy · 11/03/2006 12:30

theres always mothers day...... its only 2 weeks away

JayzMummy · 11/03/2006 13:42

Mothers Day would have been fab....BUT there is not enough time to get one rolling in time.
IMO we need to get OK from AQ first as she has always organised challenges in the past...I only helped her out on the last one because she was so busy.

We could always have a challenge where only peel offs are used....might encourage more people to join in and be a real challenge for those of us who dont use themGrin

Yorkiegirl · 11/03/2006 13:49

a child's card would be excellent... hopefully we can sort out who is organising without treading on anyone's toes.

jessicaandrebeccasmummy · 11/03/2006 13:49

thats my kind of swap!

Not that im using peel-offs as much now (mainly just borders really) but it would be easier!

pootlepod · 11/03/2006 14:38

I am up for a challenge as well, but would prefer 'not Easter.

misdee · 11/03/2006 14:40

i'll do it, but not easter. how do these challenges work? is it make a card and upload the pic?

champs · 11/03/2006 14:42

PeachyClair - summer goodie swap sounds good.

Sorry if I have trodden on anyones toes. Just thought it would be nice to have a good challenge. Well, AQ have you got a challenge up your sleeve. Agree with the Easter bit, I don't send them.

OP posts:
Dior · 11/03/2006 16:22

A nice folwery theme would be good. I'd be up for it then...

auntyquated · 11/03/2006 16:46

nothing up my sleeve at all (well apart from my scabies infected arm!!!)

UCM... plesae feel free to organise ; altho' I did start off the challenges it is hard work (well, not difficult, but time-consuming) and it is nice that others want to share the load. JM did the last challenge then the die/fibre swap. So between us we can pass on some info so you aren't gathering from scratch.

I will join too but would prefer not to do Easter...how about 'Spring Colours', then those who would like to do Easter can go down that track if they want.

give me a shout if you'd like any help.

AQ

soapbox · 11/03/2006 17:12

I'd like to join in with a challenge if that's okay? Happy to go along with whatever anyone else wants to do!

Yorkiegirl · 11/03/2006 18:24

I like the idea of kids birthdays

JayzMummy · 11/03/2006 18:25

kids birthday for me too please

PeachyClair · 11/03/2006 19:17

I like kids birthday too.

jessicaandrebeccasmummy · 11/03/2006 19:18

kids birthdays would be a HUGE challenge for me - not done a single one yet!
