Challenge #79

Hi everyone!  Did you have time to watch the Royal Wedding on Friday?  The Middleton's did us 'commoners' proud with their understated elegance.  Not so many challengers last time but a big thank you to those who joined us for Aqua, Bling, Sentiment, maybe it was one of our more challenging challenges!!!

I just can't believe how quickly the year is marching on and we're into May, which means we have a new Guest Designer and for May / June we are delighted to have Anne (Stargroves) with us.

I’m Anne Ray and I've been papercrafting for about 3 years.  I am originally a quilter and my papercrafting began when I went into the wrong hall at the NEC craft show, lol, and got me hooked in moments.  I live in Lambourn, horse racing country, with my husband and 2 teenage sons, horses, a terrier and a retired greyhound.  Stamping is my first love and I have a growing collection of Copics.  Sometimes I feel I’m going back to my childhood with all this colouring in of images but it’s too much fun to stop!  When I’m not making cards I like to read, sew, bake, ride and go racing.
Hugs
Anne

Some sad news now I'm afraid.  This is the last week that our wonderful guest designer Kym is with us.  A very big thank you from all of us at OLL and we hope to see Kym joining in with our challenges again.

Sammi has decided to step down from the design team.  Sammi has been given the chance to be a sponsorship coordinator on another team and, understandably, can't do everything.  We are very sad to lose such a talented member of our team but wish Sammi well in her new venture.  Time doesn't stand still and that is how, thoughout our lives, we grow.  Good luck Sammi and hope to see you popping in from time to time.

Challenge #77

Hello blogging buddies.  It was Mother's Day in the UK yesterday and I hope all our crafting Mums had a wonderful day.

We had another fabulous array of entries for our last challenge of Mother's Day / Special Friend.  It never ceases to amaze our DT that so many designs can be so different - and lots of inspiration for us too.  Thank you!
