A big thank you to everyone who joined us last month - we really appreciate your support.  Come back a week today to see who has been chosen in the Top 3 from that challenge.  

Before I share the details about today's new challenge, we're having a Design Team Call for 2025!

Here's what you need to know:

1. You need to have a blog and also a Facebook account - that's where our Design Team group is.

3. Everyone takes turn choosing a theme for the challenges and chooses the top 3 from the entries for the theme they chose.

4. You will also be required to comment on challenge entries - either one or two entries in every ten.

5. We are a very relaxed Design Team - no pressure because at the end of the day, crafting is about having fun!
