Challenge #91

Hi everyone!  Hope everything's gone well for you the past couple of weeks.  I just don't know where the time is disappearing to and can't believe that Christmas is looming.  Our last challenge had a difficult subject so thank you to those who joined in with us.  The designs were superb and perfect for such a sad occasion.

Firstly I'd like to say a very big thank you to Lena Katrine who was our guest designer last month.  It was a pleasure working with her and we will no doubt catch up with Lena in blogland.

We have a new Guest Designer for October, the lovely Maxine.  A girl of few words but huge talent.  Here's what she has to say about herself!

I've been card making for 3 1/2 years and I'm addicted. My small craft box has now turned into a craft room and I'm in there every day crafting. I'm also a DT member for Trimcraft, Little Claire and Meiflower Crafts.

Lena Katrine's GD Card

When I posted the last challenge Lena Katrine couldn't make her card as her printer was broken.  She's been thinking about buying a new one for a while so this was the idea opportunity to go shopping!  She's been trying it out and here's her project for her GD spot and it's been well worth waiting for.  Thanks so much Lena Katrine. xx

Unfortunately Lena Katrine our GD for September has been unable to send us a card this time.  She has had terrible problems with her printer so can't print any OLL designs.  Hopefully she will manage to get her project completed before the end of the challenge and it will be posted on here.

Challenge #88

Hi challengers!  Hope you've all had a good couple of weeks.  The weather's definitely changing here and Autumn is making its presence felt! The leaves are turning their gorgeous russet colours and then falling on the ground.

Thanks to all those who took part in our last challenge of No Backing Paper - so many wonderful designs as usual.

A little heads up - there's a new Christmas CD being released very soon.  Keep following so you don't miss it.

Lena Katrine - GD September

Here's a little bit of info about me:

I live in a small, beautiful place called Osen, on the south east countryside in Norway.  

I've been making cards for about 5 years now, but my card crafting really hit the roof when I started blogging 3 years ago!

I love creating with beautiful stamps, ink, papers, flowers, pearls, ribbons and other craft stuff. My favourite technic at the moment, is colouring images with Prismacolors. I find inspiration everywhere and anywhere; in blogland, in magazines, in colours, in commercials...you name it!

I very much enjoy teaching craft classes - it gives me so much joy to see others create. I love spending time together with my crafting friends, and I'm spending as much time together with them, as my ordinary life allowes me to :)

Thank you so much for having me as your Guest Designer at Ooh La La in September!

Hugs, Lena Katrine
