Well done chick and if you e-mail me your details, I'll pass them on to Kathe so that she can organise your prize. Thank you to Kathe for her sponsorhip.

Joanna is sponsoring our challenge and our winner this week will get a £10 voucher to spend in the shop.

But that's not all, because Joanna has also joined us as our special guest designer and has made us a card. So a huge thank you to her, and we are thrilled that she has joined us xxxx

I must also thank the lovely Pat at Joanna Sheen for all her help as well - Pat you are a star xxxx

We also have 2 new guest designers for you as well and they are Lorraine and Heather. Welcome girlies and we are so pleased to have you with us for the next 4 weeks. Heather has kindly offered a little prize as well so nip over and check it out if you have a sec.

So, our challenge is, as I said, The Dark Side and we want to see anything spooky, creepy and Halloween-ie on your cards. And without further ado, here's what we all did.

We have another fabulous prize again this week -

For those of you who didn't see the post when Kathe was last with us, here is a little bit about her and what she does -

Hello my name is Kathe most know as Bluerose. I would like to say that I am a Independent Distributor with The Angel Company (TAC) and it is a direct sales company that manufactures and sells an exclusive line of rubber stamps, paper collections, and accessories for scrap-booking, card-making, and other paper craft projects. They maintain one of the Nation's most liberal angel policies, allowing their customers to not only use their purchased stamps for personal use, but for projects for profit as well. You will love our revolutionary Creative Cling™ Stamping System! This system is fast, easy to use and can maximize your storage space. I would love to invite you to visit my blog at http://www.katzdesignz.blogspot.com/ I sure hope to see you there really soon…

Thank you Kathe - it's nice to have you back with us xxx

On a sadder note. we have to say goodbye to out wondereful guest designers this week. I can't believe it's been 4 weeks since they joined us - how quickly it's gone!!! But a huge thank you to you all cos you've all been stars and you've done some wonderful work for us xxx

We'll have a new and fabulous GDT for you next week.
