Welcome back everyone and thanks for checking in on our new challenge. We've got a nice and easy colour challenge for you this month - your card can be in any style you like, with any kind of image, but the challenge is to make it with just 3 colours - BLACK, WHITE plus ONE OTHER COLOUR. You can pick any colour you like for your third colour and shades of both it and grey are acceptable in your card but it should be 3 colours only. The DT have some great inspirational cards to share with you today and you'll find those below.
First off though, you'll want to know what the prize is up for grabs this month for the winning card. This month we have a guest DT member, Zoë Tant, who is an independent Stampin' Up demonstrator, and she has kindly donated a lovely set of Stampin' Up stamps - the new Strength and Hope set, which is appropriate as Stampin' Up! is donating £1 from the sale of each Strength and Hope Set sold to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation so two charities benefit from our challenge this month! BCRF is dedicated to preventing breast cancer and finding a cure in our lifetime by funding clinical and translational research worldwide.
In addition to donating, the prize this month, as sponsor of the St Luke's Charity Cards Challenge Blog Zoe will donate an additional £1 to the St Luke's Appeal for every set bought from her by supporters of the St Luke's Challenge. The set costs £15.95 for wood mount and £12.95 for clear mount and can be ordered from Zoe on martin.tant@homecall.co.uk Post & Packing is £1.50. Visit her blog www.stampingscene.blogspot.com from 2 July for more information.
And now, we have to address some unfinished business from last month's challenge - our WINNERS! First of all our overall favourite card from last month, and therefore the recipient of the lovely bundle of ribbons donated by Ciara was - No 39 JEAN with this great card. Please drop me an email with your address Jean so we can get your prize out to you.
Our top 3 were Jenny, Rica and Poppet - thanks for some fabulous flying submissions ladies - your winners badges will be winging their way to you shortly - please wear them on your blogs with pride :-)
I do hope we've inspired you to join our challenge this month - can anyone top Cazro who deserves a special mention for playing EVERY week last month! We look forward to seeing your colour choices - so get crafting and your cards with the little blue frog below. Don't forget, the aim of our challenge is to collect cards for St Luke's to sell, so once you've made your card, post it to us at the address in the sidebar if you can spare your card and the postage. You're all stars :-D
