Challenge #43 Something New....

Happy New Crafting Year!!!!

Wow; last year sure went by past. It doesn't feel like a whole year ago that I wrote up 2015's first challenge post, and here we are already in 2016!!! :-) 

Here's a quick recap of  the LLC challenge themes in 2015; 

In total for the 12 challenges we had 953 entries. AMAAAAAAAZING! !!!

 Thank you so very  much everyone who participated throughout the year; hope you had fun playing with us!

We'll do our best to continue to bring you fun challenges, but before we get started with the first one for 2016, here's the randomly drawn winner from the December challenge:

That's Alison, who submitted this gorgeous 3D Mixed Media project;

WOHOOOO! What a a way to kick off the new year; £25 to spend at the LLC Store. :-D :-D :-D

Congrats Alison; please contact me, Sandy to claim your prize. 

Now; let's move on to the challenge and as a brand spanking New Year is upon us, we thought we'd go with Something New...

As always; please feel free to interpret the theme as you wish; you could show off your new crafty goodies that Santa brought you for Christmas, a new technique you haven't tried out before, make a card for someone who's starting a new job, or whatever else "New" comes to mind...

Now for some DT NEW(s);

The lovely Becky, who's stuck with me ever since I started up the LLC store, so more than 3 years now, has stepped down from the team. We in the DT are all going to miss her tremendously, and I'm sure you blog readers will as well. Thanks so much for everything Becky!!! ♥ ♥ ♥

Joining the team, is the talented Franz from Italy, so I'd like to take this opportunity to officially welcome Franz to the team.

FRANZ  - New Baby

TRACY - New Products: Sisal & Pion Design Papers

DIANA - New Stamp & Dies

KAREN - New Type of Box

ALYCE - New background technique

DEBBIE - Happy New Year (with new stamp)

Continuing with the news, with this challenge I'm trying out a new link up tool, hope it'll work as expected. Should you have any difficulties linking up, please leave a comment with a link to your entry instead.

Thanks n Hugz,
Sandy & the Team
