Anything Goes (Plus A Bit Of Bling If You Want :)

Hi peeps and a very happy November to you all - I hope that you are all OK and having a nice week :)

Hugest of thanks to everybody who joined in last week and there were some great interpretations of the old sketch.

So who was our winner?

Doc7

Well this week it’s Dawn B  - woohoooooo, and what a great name to win lol :)

Well done chick and if you e-mail me I’ll pass your details onto Heidi over at Simon Says Stamp  and hugest of thanks to them for their wonderful sponsorship xxx

And check out what Dawn did peeps …..

… this is so sweet :)

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

Anything Goes

challenge and this month the optional extra is to add a bit of sparkle and bling – well it’s nearly 5th November :) But remember,  it is only optional and you don't have to use it if you don't want to :)

And of course, as it’s the first one of the month, we are sponsored by those lovely girlies Lisa and Laila over at Lili Of The Valley.

And check out what’s up for grabs peeps ….

GIFT VOUCHER

There is a  new release out soon and if you are going to Birmingham then you’ll be able to get your mitts on them there, otherwise they will be out on 10th of this month.

Hugest of thanks to the 2 lovely ‘L’s  :)xxx

Before we get to the cards, we have to say hello and welcome to our new GDT  Carissa and Liz who will be with us throughout November. We hope you enjoy your stay with us girlies and we cannot wait to see what you do with the challenges :)

AND we have some more news because we have another full time DT girlie to introduce to you. Some of you may remember that I did a Copics Retreat a few weeks ago and this lovely girl was on the Retreat. When I saw her colouring I was blown away so I just had to ask her to join us … and she said yes, so I am pleased to welcome Jenny into the Papertake fold. We hope you will enjoy being part of our fab team chick.

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 if you get a sec 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
