The Winner of the Week 3 Challenge "Bling" is JODENE!! Please email me your address Jodene and I will pass it on to the Craft Queen so you can receive your cute felt flowers without delay!! Congratulations!

Week 4 CCC Challenge

Hi there! Sorry I am a little slow in getting to this - have had the flu and ended up going to bed really early last night and sleeping 'til 10am this morning! What a nice hubby I have to keep my 4 kids quiet enough to get away with sleeping until that time!
Anyway, I am sure you are all waiting to hear what the challenge will be....

As Susan, Tracy and I have all had a turn at choosing I thought I would ask Kristy to choose this week and she has picked a beauty...it is..

A Floral Feast

What a great idea and what a great chance to use up some of those odd flowers sitting in your stash.

Kristy is also unbelievably generous and offered to sponsor this week's winner. She has offered a $15 gift certificate from www.scrapsidaisy.com. How lovely is that?

I will be back on later today to announce the winner of last week's prize of a flower pack from Craft Queen. Check in soon! xx

You never know who is stopping by!

I have just received the most lovely email from one of the participants last week to say that she has been invited by an Australian publisher (*wink*) to participate in their Artist and the Stamp challenge and... they found her from looking at THIS BLOG! She has never been published before and is (naturally) very excited to be contacted by them.

The word is out girls copycatcards is THE place for the coolest and cleverest Aussie card makers! How exciting!

Week 2 - Xmas card with NO red or green!

CCC challenge for this week!

Hi guys!

As I don't intend to be on the computer until midnight (got cards to make...lol) I thought I would share this week's challenge.

It was Susan's turn to pick it and she has went for...(drum roll)...


Create a CHRISTMAS CARD without using RED or GREEN!
Can it really look like a Chrissie card without its traditional colours?? Let's see...who wants to try?? I have done mine but will load up in the morning so I can take a daylight photo.
Would love to see some in my IN box in the morning...just email your card to me at barwell@aapt.net.au.
Have a wonderful week copycatcard challengers!
Leisa.
