Anything Goes

Hi peeps and a very

Happy New Year

to you all xxx

I  hope that you are all OK and that you all had a lovely Christmas and here’s to a great 2013.

Hugest of thanks to everybody who joined in our last challenge of 2012  – it was wonderful seeing which challenges were your picks of the year :)

So who was our winner then ?

Woohooo Pauline C,  this week it’s you chick :)

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

And check out what Pauline  did peeps …..

... Pauline chose Cute Cute Cute from May 8th , and it certainly is cute :) I LOVE the little pengie, awww!!!

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

Anything Goes

theme and as its the first one of the year, we won’t have an optional extra, so you can 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.

And with so much to choose from in the shop, one lucky girlie is going to be spoiled for choice!!!!

Hugest of thanks for a fabulous prize :)xxx

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.

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 another  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

Finally,  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 for bearing with us and huggiest of hugs to all
