Anything Goes :)

Hi peeps :)

I hope that you are all OK today and that you are all having a nice week so far and I hope that you have had a great Bank Holiday weekend :)

So hugest of thanks to everybody who joined in  last week  and as always your cards and projects were amazing, with some fabulous interpretations of the sketch..

So who was our winner then?

Woohooo  Lorianna,  this week it’s you chick  :)

Well done to you and if you e-mail me,  I’ll pass your details onto Heidi and hugest of thanks to  Simon Says Stamp for sponsoring us xxx

And check out what Lorianna did peeps …..

… what a beautiful card – those flowers are so pretty :)

So onto this week and as it’s the first one of the month we have our usual

Anything Goes

theme with the optional extra to make a card for Fathers Day or for a boy / man.

But remember this is only an option and if you don’t want to use this theme then you don’t have to. The main thing is to let loose your creative stuff and make a card that pleases YOU :)

As our regulars will know, the first challenge of the month is sponsored by the lovely Lisa & Laila over at

Lili Of The Valley

And they have given us a …

… to give to one lucky winner.

Hugest of thanks sweet girlies for a fabulous prize :)xxx

I haven’t heard back from one of our new GDT so I’m not sure if we will only have 1 GD for this month. But our fab one  is  Aunty Sue. Welcome aboard chick and we hope you enjoy your stay with us :-)

I also have some news for you regarding the regular DT and I am soooo pleased to say that one of our last month’s GDT,  Jane (Brodders to us) has agreed to stay on as a full time member. We are thrilled to have her because apart from the fact that she really does do the most gorgeous work, she is also a very very very nice lady too – we like that at PTW :)  Welcome chick and we cannot wait to see your Papertake creations xxx

So without further ado, let’s check out what the PTW crew did this week   …...

So that’s what we did and now it’s over to you, and if you get a sec, don’t forget to check out our individual blogs and see what else we have been up to.

As always, could we ask a huge favour peeps please.

Could you help to make our job at leaving comments easier by turning off comment verification and enabling comment moderation instead please pretty please xxxx. It’s ever so easy to do – see our sidebar – and you won’t get spam comments as you can easily reject the comments that you don't want to appear. And also, can we remind you nicely that’s it’s fine to combine challenges but please, no back linking. We hope you understand that it’s only fair to those who make a new card xxx

And also, can I just give you a nice gentle reminder to ask if you could make sure that you link your card and not your blog when using good old Mr Linky please my lovelies. It makes life so much easier for our DT if they don’t have to go searching for your cards.

Thanks ever so muchly – we really do appreciate it xxx

Also just to let you know that sometimes it is not possible for the Design Team to leave a comments on every entry, with these Blogger issues that some of us are having at the mo – grrrrrr what a nightmare. But please be assured that we do stop by and we are doing our best and every single eligible entry goes into the draw for our prizes even if we don’t manage to leave you a comment

Thanks peeps for bearing with us and hugs from all of us to all of you xxx
