Good morning to you all, I hope you are ready for our new challenge theme which is some beautiful Autumnal photo inspiration, it always seems a popular time of year with crafters so we hope you will embrace the lovely colours of the season and join us..............
I would like to add a few notes and am sorry to be a bore as we know crafting is meant to be fun, but we do need to observe a few simple rules to keep things running smoothly.
1) We are a stamping challenge and must see a hand stamped image focally on your work, you can use any make of stamp and enter up to three different projects, but digi images are not allowed, the one exception are Penny Black Stickeroos.
2) Using third partly hosts rather than a blog is down to personal choice, however so many entries using them do not link to our challenge or provide any details about their entry which is a requirement under our rules.
In future entries failing to meet the above WILL NOT receive comments from the DT. Nor will they be eligible for prizes. The DT keep notes of entries failing to meet these requirements and if those numbers come up in the random draw will be re-drawn. We believe this is only fair to both the DT and the majority of entrants who do follow the simple rules.
Penny Black invite you to explore their creative world and see for yourself why their rubber stamps, stickers, beautiful papers for scrapbooking, cardmaking and stamp crafting are everyone’s favourites. Their products are designed to integrate style and colour for creating the best handicraft projects ever. If you would like to be one of the first to hear about new products from Penny Black please click here to join the free club, plus their Facebook is full of activity and news.
Three lovely Autumnal prizes above from them.

Lovely colors and DT inspiration. I'm new to your challenge blog. Could you clarify whether all colors must be represented on the project? Also, can neutrals be used (i.e. white, black, cream). Thanks so much!
ReplyDeletehi cynthia, welcome to the challenge! neutrals can be used as long as your creation follows the rules and you're inspired by some of the fall colours in the photo.
