Things have been really quiet here over the summer so how about a challenge??

THEME
Christmas in September

SIGN UP DEADLINE
Friday 8th September

RULES (GUIDELINES)

  • make ONE Christmas card
  • send everything you used to make it to your Challenge Chum (CC) including the card blank and the envelope. Send them by Septmeber 15th -before you send them to your CC take a photo of the bits and pieces (B&P) -when you receive your B&P,make a card with the things you have receieved. If you receieve more than 5 B&P (not including the card) then you can miss one out. If you receiev less than 5 B&P then you can add one more thing. Other than that you can only add glue, glitter,chalk and ink. -take a picture of your card and post it on the Yahoo group by 29th Septmeber.

It sounds complicated but ius really straight forward and i thought that the christmas theme would be good to get us all going.

if you are interested please email me the following information before Friday 8th September then I will send you details of your CC.

I dont get this. BLONDE MOMENT. I was going to send you some cross stitch Xmas cards that I make. But am interested in what youre doing.

Whizzz · 29/08/2006 11:31

Mail on its way AQ

Whizzz · 29/08/2006 11:33

LVT - you make a Xmas card & then send whatever you used to someone else. They have to make a card with your bits & pieces.
THen you post a pic of your card & they post a pic of their card - no glory - just the amazement of seeing what others can come up with using the same bits & bobs !

LieselVonTrapp · 29/08/2006 11:38

Fab idea - that means I cant use threads though boo hiss. Anyway count me in.

Whizzz · 29/08/2006 11:42

Well you could I assume < seeks the nod from AQ ! >, you would just have to send the threads & fabric as part of your Bits & bobs

auntyquated · 29/08/2006 12:01

LVT - you could post fabric and thread but don't expect it to be used as you have!
