December - Winter Sparkle

Good morning to you all, here we are in December which seems to have arrived all too quickly so I had better tell you all about our new theme...............

********Winter Sparkle********

We wonder how you will interpret this one? It can be those last minute Christmas cards, Winter Birthday's and so many other occasions, all we ask is that there is some sparkle on your creations and of course stamping as we are a stamping challenge so must see a stamped image which reflects the theme as the focal element of your artwork , this means:

Stamping must be the central point of attention and interest

Our Sponsors are 'be Creative!' who have launched a range of great craft products over the past few years. 'be Creative!' will be launching their new web site very soon but in the meantime you can keep up to date by following their Facebook where you will see some of the new products and also purchase them from Once Upon a Stamp here. You can also contact Gordon and Justin by e.mail here. The products are always well received on Hochanda shows and are also be available at 'Create it' shows up and down the Country. Our winner will receive a super £25 store voucher.

We are pleased to welcome Karin who was entry no 82 in our October challenge (afraid GDPR prevents adding a link to anyone other than DT's)

"My name is Suha and I have created Swedish House Crafts in the second part of 2016. It is a little Swedish online shop with lots of enthusiasm for crafting in a different style, dare to be different. Visit SHC and learn more. I have been professionally crafting since 2008, I gave colouring classes (with Promarkers) in Sweden, had exhibition in 2014, and used to make cards and mixed media mainly. I have a master degree in digital and visual design. Yes, 100% of graphics in the shop are my artwork including the logotype. Because I am not leaving my education, I am using it in my passion for paper crafting in the first place. Great combination as the future is full of plans and surprises, hold on and follow SHC on Facebook and blog, you'll find SHC everywhere."

We welcome Elaine as our November Guest Designer.................

As always the Design Team have pulled out all the stops and have a fabulous selection of inspiration to share..............
