Today sees the first challenge of the year over at My Time To Craft.
If you fancy joining us for a few weeks as a Guest Designer, either pop over & enter our challenge here & add GDT to your name or email me at shell-swinscoe@virginmedia.com You can use anything you want to create your finished item but it must follow the theme,. You can also make anything you want, it doesn't have to be a card as we are a mixed media challenge. It just has to fit the theme!
The theme for the next week is....
ALL THINGS NEW!
new year, new house, new car, new job, new baby....& of course all that scrummy new stash you got for Christmas!
