December challenge

Welcome to our December challenge where we are going very much with the time of year in this part of the World......

****Winter****

Or you can always fall back on Anything Goes, all are very welcome.

We have a sad farewell to say, it's to Alice, our team member in Italy, she took a break but does not feel ready to return, so we have left the door open for her to come back to us next year, we hope she does. 

But there is also some good news and a new team member to introduce, it's Pinky who I am sure will be familiar to many of you, please join us in giving her a very warm welcome. 

Three prizes from AALL and Create, A5 sets Pheasants, Alstromeria and Key Botanicals


We welcome Denise back as our Guest Designer, what a delightful Winter card she has created for us all, thank you Denise....
