Hi guys, really sorry for my extremely late post today. Internet has been really playing up and couldn't keep a connection! Anyway, hope my post today is worth the wait cos I have some great news before I tell you about the latest challenge.

And here it is - Crafts Galore Encore are having a DT call!  Just click the image and you can read all about it.

It's a really fun blog to be a part of and we have some good laughs!  The challenge is once a month so nothing too demanding, there are great images to use and some fabulous themes.  Please do pop over and enter, even if you haven't been on a DT before, I'm quite new to it and hey - we all have to start somewhere!  Good Luck

Anyway, on to this months challenge at

CRAFTS GALORE ENCORE

It's an Anything Goes challenge so you have free reign to make whatever you want, a card, knitting, crochet, or any other craft you can think of.  I decided to go back to CD crafting for this one just for a change.  I've been doing lots of stamping/colouring challenges lately and thought it would be good to revisit something I haven't used in a while.  We are sponsored by the lovely
