MN Crafters Challenge!

I am taking part in a Chinese Whisper Challenge on another forum and wondered if anyone here would be interested in doing something similar.

How it works is that a template or basic idea gets emailed to the first person on the list, who creates something inspired by the template. That crafter then takes a piccie of their own work and emails it onto the next on the list. Once everyone has completed their own work- we have the big reveal!

The one I am in at the moment is only cards or scrapping, but it doesn't need to be. For example colours or themes can be used for sewing, beading, knitting...it's just for fun...haven't a clue how it would work out!

Depending on how many (if any) are nterested we could split into groups to speed the process along.

Thoughts please?

Can I think about it please, it's just that I have got quite a lot on and don't want to take something on and not deliver.

It does sound fun ...

I'll let you know by Friday if that's OK

I think I'll give this one a miss.

I'm stressing about getting enough things done for the craft fair.

I'd love to join in though.

Hello, I'm afraid I'll have to jib out of this one, I'll be trying to do too much I think. I'm very busy at the mo which is fab!

I'm going on a 2 day Business Link course and I want to try & get down to Cornwall in the next couple of weeks.

I'm intrigued to see how this'll turn out.
