Cards, gift boxes, tags, gifts, the choice is yours, all you need to remember is that we are as a stamping challenge and the focal element of your entry must be hand stamped (or digital) to reflect the theme. A stamped sentiment on an otherwise non stamped piece of work is not acceptable. If you are unsure, please ensure you check our challenge rules here

We have two prizes of Christmas themed stamp sets very kindly donated by one of our regular entrants, thank you so much for your generosity.

October challenge

Good morning and welcome to our October challenge. With the beauty of the new season all around us there could only be one theme....

🍁 🍂 All things Autumn 🍂 🍁

Autumn offers so many beautiful warm colours, we leave it with you to choose the occasion for your entries, but please remember the focal element of your work must be hand stamped (or digital) to reflect the Autumn theme.

If you would like the chance of winning a prize or Top 3 spot you must use a stamped (or digital) image which reflects the theme as the focal/central aspect of your work. A stamped sentiment/additional element on an otherwise non stamped creation will not be eligible. Our rules are here.

A stamped sentiment alongside an otherwise non stamped creation does not meet our rule requirements so please ensure you check our challenge rules here if you are unsure.

We have some super goodies to give away to two winners this month from Highlight Crafts, many will be familiar with their products from Stephanie Weightman's regular appearances on Create and Craft TV and we are thrilled to share them with you, the lovely Crown and Glory stamp set and Dainty Blue die set with coordinating printed Reflections....

Highlight Crafts, the home of Two Red Robins dies, is a family owned craft company located in the heart of England. Our products are designed in the UK and produced to the highest of standards. We have a fabulous variety of brands to cover a multitude of crafty techniques.

We have a farewell and two welcomes, Anesha who has been a member of the team for some time has sadly left and we thank her for all her work on the team. If life calms down you know where we are Anesha!

Our first welcome goes to Carol, I am sure many of you know her already as she is an active blogger and we hope you will join us in giving her a very warm welcome. And Dora is returning to the team, she left last Summer due to work pressure but we are so happy she is rejoining us.

Here's the inspiration from the Design Team......
