Challenge 110 - Make Your Own!

Thank you to all of you who took the time to join in with our challenge again last week, another fantastic week.

I also want to remind everyone that to eligible for the prize you must follow the theme with a NEW card or project and link back to this blog. Any cards made and posted on your blog before the date of this weeks challenge will not be eligible to win our prize this week.

The Design Team have asked me to make a plea to you all.....Word Verification is a real drag when we are trying to leave comments on your cards....but when you also have Comment Moderation....why!!! Please would you all consider turning off Word Verification and turning on Comment Moderation...that way it saves us time leaving comments, but still protects you from spam comments as you can just publish the ones that are ok. On my blog I have neither and I don't get that many spam comments....and because I have set up my blog to be emailed whenever I receive a comment, I can go straight in and delete the offending ones....So join in the campaign and get rid of Word Verification!

The winners of the fantastic prizes kindly donated by Alota Rubber Stamps
is Tasha.

Here is Tasha's card...

Congratulations, please email Caz with your details!

Our stamps are made from deeply etched rubber and are available unmounted or cling mounted.
