auntyquated · 28/08/2006 21:48

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.

RL name

You send whatever you used to make your card.

A day or two won't hurt either way, I shouldn't think; I'm doing the carnival Saturday anyhow.

Whizzz · 13/09/2006 16:58

DOn't forget to send a card blank & envelope too !

PeachyClairHasBadHair · 13/09/2006 17:18

Why Whizzzz, were you expecting her to make a card without one?

hollyhobbie · 13/09/2006 17:30

Thanks Whizzz, will the Yahoo Gallery details be posted on this thread when they're all up?

LieselVonTrapp · 14/09/2006 09:20

Well thats a PITA cause I do cross stitch cards. Do I send you my thread? and then you throw it in the bin? I need to go away and have a lie down.

hunkermunker · 14/09/2006 09:31

Oh dammit - only just checked my email - should've sent you my hunker one, AQ - sorry.

Will try to get them posted tomorrow.

kickassangel · 14/09/2006 11:11

thanks for b&p dior, and you can kiss my ass if you like!
have got my b&p together, anad will get them posted as soon as i am released from this prison/school

PeachyClairHasBadHair · 14/09/2006 16:35

Send me your thread, I'll manage something.... haven't done cross stitch for ages but used to like it

Or I'll just make it into a fibre, one way or t'other!

Whizzz · 14/09/2006 16:56

Peachy ....nooooo ...it's just that I remember in the last couple of challenges some people only send the actual bits they used & forget to send the card blank too.

UCM · 15/09/2006 06:26
