December challenge

Happy December everyone! With many of us wrapping gifts for the upcoming festivities we are hoping lots will be making tags (and ATC's) which you will share with us.

This month Lynn has selected the theme of......

Red and Green
or Anything Goes

Whilst Lynn's theme offers the obvious choice of traditional Christmas it could be something totally different and as usual theres the option of Anything Goes as well.

In case you didn't see our mid month post, in future Bookmarks will also be accepted as entries. We often see them entered and they look so similar to Tags that they are now accepted as entries. So if you are making some to gift, please do share.

Textural Inspiration

We're back with some mid month inspiration following Pinky's 'Add some Texture' theme which also has the usual Anything Goes option.

We want to let you know about a change which is that in future Bookmarks will also be accepted as entries. We often see them entered and most look so similar to Tags that going forward we will welcome them as entries.


Our prize this month is a bundle of goodies which lend themselves to creating ATC's, but most elements will work with your tags as well.

Here are our takes on incorporating texture into our Tags and ATC's......
