Thank you to our fab guest Designer Jane ... her cards have been gorgeous.
On to this week's challenge .. we are up to E and for this challenge we would like you to use elves or fairy folk (we are being flexible and allowing WOJ gnomes, and basically anything fairy folk like and Christmasy!) on your card, and the colour combination red and green.
We are being sponsored by our lovely DT member Lacey and her shop Stamp and Create, and you can win the gorgeous Whiff of Joy stamp Whiff in Stocking that Samantha has used.
Firstly, we'd like to say a HUGE 'thank you' to all of you who took the time to enter our DT call. We really enjoyed looking at your fabulous cards, and having a nosey around your blogs...you gave us a very difficult decision!
In the end, we couldn't choose just 2...so we would like to invite the following 4 people to join our happy band of crafters:
Congratulations ladies...welcome to the ABC Christmas Challenge family!
Please could you all contact us via the email link in the sidebar...which for some reason is now all at the bottom of the blog! lol
Please don't feel disheartened if you weren't chosen this time...we will be having regular guest designers chosen from entries to our challenges.
Firstly, I Samantha would like to thank all of you that entered challenge C for Candy!

On to challenge D for Decorations
We would like to see all your projects using our theme 'Decorations' this week,
and as its my turn Samantha to choose the extra for this week's challenge
I'd like to see ribbon as well on your creations...
I am really so excited to WHY?
Because this week we have the pleasure once again of Simon says Stamp
they are offering our lucky winner of this weeks challenge
a $15 shopping spree
Woooohoooo!!
just wish I could win it myself! tehhehee!
Just thought I would post this little update today - 17.02.10
I have heard from a few people that they do not have a stamp they could use for D for Decoration,
you don't have to use a stamp or just make your project a card!
thinking outside of the box is encouraged
here are a couple of Decoration made by our very own Helen!
and this little one I (Samantha) made a couple of years ago
So, spread the word and we look forward to seeing your projects this time!
Your project can be a anything you like and to help inspire you here are the DT projects.
We are really please Jane has joined us for the next 2 challenges.
She has made this really cute card!
I was gonna say what a cracking card! No pun intended (crackling) haha.
I love it well done Jane!
