Patti

Sue K

Marion

Sue W

Stephanie

Andrea

We can't wait to see what you all come up with this week!!  Don't forget to add your link below and follow these simple guidelines :)

About our challenges: 

- We post our challenges every Friday at 12:00pm AEST (AEDT during Daylight Savings).

- Each challenge runs for a week, and will close on the Thursday 8.00pm so that we can announce and showcase our weekly winner/s prior to the next challenge. 

- Each weeks 'Favourite' will receive our special blinkie to display on their blog and a special little something.  Our last challenge for the month will be a sketch challenge which will attract our main prize of a $15.00 gift voucher for that weeks winner.

  

How To Play Along : 

- Copy and save our challenge banner and include it and a link back to the ABS blog in your post.

- Please link directly to your entry not just to your blog.

- Please don't link to postings made prior to the date of our current challenge.  All projects submitted must be new.

- A maximum of 7 challenges may be combined including this one.        

- You may enter any challenge several times as long as each submission is with a new creation.

- We would love you to use AnnaBelle Stamps and embellishments, but you can play along without using them, it’s all about sharing ideas :)

Hugs everyone,

Andrea
