Challenge 64 - Anything Goes/Autumn or Fall

 Hello and welcome back to the challenge blog!

A big thank you to everyone who took part in our last challenge - we really appreciate you joining in.

Don't forget to come back here on 25 November to see who is the winner and top 3 was from last month's challenge and of course to see more inspiration from the Design Team for our current challenge.

And don't forget that all our challenges are now 'anything goes' with an optional theme for you to follow.  Our Design Team will use the optional theme but you can choose whether to or not.

Before we talk about today's challenge, we are still having a:

DESIGN TEAM CALL

We're looking for some new team members for 2025!

Here's what you need to know:

1. You need to have a blog and a Facebook account - our DT group and Star Stampz group are both on Facebook.

2. You need to be comfortable working with digital stamps, taking good clear square photos of your cards and adding a watermark to your photos.

3. You will make one card per month.

4. We take turns choosing the optional challenge themes (which the Design Team must follow) and choosing the top 3 from challenges.  Design Team members can request a digi stamp to make their cards.

5. You will be commenting on one or two entries in every ten.

If that sounds like something you are interested in or if you have any questions, please e-mail me (Helen) at madebyhelenblog@yahoo.com

And now back to today's new challenge.

Our optional theme chosen by Clara is:

ANYTHING GOES/AUTUMN OR FALL

And here is some inspiration from our Design Team:

Annie using Mushroom Fairy

Deanne using Autumn Gift

Great cards - thank you ladies!

Please link up your cards below remembering to link to your post not your whole blog.

Our rules are in the sidebar - please make sure you follow them so you are eligible for our winner's prize of three digi stamps of your choice.  Our challenges end at 12 noon GMT on the 9th of each month and as I mentioned above, the results will be published in our second post of the month on the 25th.
