and as always this comes with the rule that you must have used one of their products on your card and that could be either a Image, Paper or Printable, and they have a wonderful library of all of these and they are always being updated so you will find something to use on your card. And even if you dont use one of their products they will still give you three digi images of your own choice to play with.
And this is the best part of the Challenge post its also the one I enjoy the most showing you what my very talented Design Team have created for you and Im sure they would appreciate it if you would pay a visit to their blogs and leave them some love, Thank You girls for all your hard work I really do appreciate it. We still are without Anne at the moment as she has unfortunately been in hospital and has only been home a couple of days so it didnt give her enough time to get her card made, hopefully she will take part in the next Challenge. Also I want to wish Marianne all the best as she is also going through a hard time at the moment receiving treatment, but she did manage to get several of her DT cards made in advance before starting it.



























Well I hope the cards are beginning to get you in that holiday mood and you will want to take part in this weeks "Holiday Time" Challenge and I look forward to seeing your cards.

But by now you know that you must have used one of their products on your card and that could be either a Image, a Paper, or a Printable and you will find such a brilliant selection on their website The Paper Shelter here, do please go and take a browse as they are always adding new images and papers to their library and the exchange rate is so good against any currency, the problem is when to stop spending. Anyway even if you dont use one of the products on your card you will still receive three images of your own choice.
And now for this weeks theme and here is the photo you want to pick your colours from, I hope you like it, it does have lots of different ones for you to choose from and I look forward to seeing your cards in the coming week.
