January challenge

Welcome to our first challenge of 2026 and Mervi has selected the very appropriate theme of....

Something New
or Anything Goes

It opens up lots of options, New Craft Products, New Baby, New Home, New Pet and we are sure you will have lots of other ideas, but if you are really stumped for something new then there's always the Anything Goes option. As we go into the New Year may we ask everyone to read our rules here, although not much has changed we still see a few entries which we have to mark ineligible, so a quick read might help to ensure your not one of those.

We have prizes of Tonic Verso dies (ones received may differ from the photo below) and a $20 Whimsy gift card.

 

Lots of inspiration from the Design Team and we are pleased to introduce Sarah who has joined the team, we are very happy to have you with us Sarah, please join us in giving her a warm welcome....
