It's Mid-Month Reminder Time for Challenge #27!

Hi there, card friends, I'm just dropping by with another card for the current challenge: Penguin Parade. Now that the Christmas Kickstart has (temporarily) gone monthly, I thought it would be helpful to jog everyone's memories that this had happened and also remind you that you can enter up to three different cards per challenge!

Before we get started, can we please send healing thoughts towards the lovely Gail in Norway. She's been a poorly elf, but is hopefully on the mend now. 

Here's a fun image from Mama Elephant (Cool Penguins) that I received as a Christmas gift from my parents - they know me sooooooooo well! The patterned layer is a beautiful background stamp from Simon Says Stamp called Kaleidoscope Leaves Background.  

If you want to find the original post for this challenge you can click here or you can link your card below.

This challenge is open until Monday 3rd February.

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

Let's Trim the Tree for Challenge #26

Happy New Year! I hope that 2020 has started well for you all!

If you are looking for the current challenge you can find it here.

I'm just dropping in to announce the Top Picks and Winner for Challenge #26. This was pretty much an anything goes challenge and was our most popular so far with a head spinning sixty-three entries; thank you so much to everyone who entered.

This certainly was a tricky one to 'pick' as there was no theme and no super-supportive elf on hand to help! I did ask Rudolph for some assistance, but he said he had leaves to sweep and disappeared out onto the front drive.

Top Picks:

Chrissie

A beautiful wreath.

Gail

Just so much fun!

Rosemarie in France

An adorable Christmas scene.

Congratulations to our winner and Star on the Tree:

Cornelia

A showstopper of a colour scheme and embossing to die for.

Congratulations to you all. Please grab your badges, ladies.

Before going to sweep leaves, Rudolph picked his Random Raffle winner:

Congratulations to Valerija in Slovenia

Hi Valerija, well done and please could you contact me with you address so that I can mail your prize. You can reach me on dottypudding@aol.com

Once again, a big thank you to everyone who entered this challenge. Challenge #27 is already underway, so why not start building your card stash for Christmas 2020 by joining the fun right now!
