Thank you so much to everybody who joined in last week - what a great response and your 'bingo' cards and projects were absolutely gorgeous :)
So who was our winner then ?

Well done to you and if you e-mail me, I’ll pass your details on to Katharina and hugest of thanks to Whiff of Joy for sponsoring us xxx

Susan used the top line ie gems, die cuts and flowers - the colours are so pretty :)
So onto this week and our theme is
For Mum
It's Mother's day on 30th March so you could make a card for that or if you sadly don't have a Mum around now (like me), then just make a card for a special female.
This week we are very pleased to welcome back our very own Mary & Andrea aka …

As always, could we ask a huge favour peeps please.
Could you help to make our job at leaving comments easier by turning off comment verification and enabling comment moderation instead please pretty please xxxx. It’s ever so easy to do – see our sidebar – and you won’t get spam comments as you can easily reject the comments that you don't want to appear.
Can we remind you nicely that’s it’s fine to combine challenges but please, no back linking. We hope you understand that it’s only fair to those who make a new card xxx
And could we ask that you restrict your number of entries please to no more than 5
Thanks ever so muchly – we really do appreciate it xxx
And just to let you know that sometimes it is not possible for the Design Team to leave a comments on every entry, with these Blogger issues that some of us are having at the mo – grrrrrr what a nightmare. But please be assured that we do stop by and we are doing our best and every single eligible entry goes into the draw for our prizes even if we don’t manage to leave you a comment.
Thanks for bearing with us and huggiest of hugs to all xxx

Anything Goes
Hi peeps and hope you are all OK today - I think that Spring has finally sprung!!!
A huge thank you to everybody who joined in last week - your cards and projects were fab :)

Well done to you and if you e-mail me, I’ll pass your details on to Heidi and hugest of thanks to Simon Says Stamp for sponsoring us xxx
And check out what Andrea did peeps …..
What a gorgeous card using sketch #87 - I love the image and colours she used :)
You will notice that I added an extra number onto the entries and this was because one lady was not able to get Linky to work - I think there were problems last week, but it was only fair to include her.
Now onto this week and as it’s the first one of the month we have our usual
Anything Goes
theme with the optional extra to make your own flowers.
But remember this is only an option and if you don’t want to use this theme then you don’t have to. The main thing is to let loose your creative stuff and make a card that pleases YOU :)
As our regulars will know, the first challenge of the month is sponsored by the lovely Lisa & Laila over at
And they have given us a …
… to give to one lucky winner.
And with so much to choose from in the shop, one lucky girlie is going to be spoiled for choice!!!!
