APOLOGIES

 I am just hopping on to express my sincere apologies that the blog post did not go live yesterday!

Things have been a bit hectic over the last few weeks and I have fallen a bit behind.  This week's challenge will therefore be delayed by one week to Sunday 14th December.

Once again, my sincere apologies, it is totally my fault!

Winner | Inspire.Create.Challenge #202

Good morning, I hope you are all well and have had a great week.

I have loved watching your autumnal cards dropping in to the challenge.  Autumn is definitely one of my favourite seasons.

The winner this week is....

Deborah Wheeler

Deborah, I genuinely loved everything about this card, its cleanness, the colours, the technique but most of all its versatility.  This card could literally be used for any occasion, is suitable for males and females and all ages too!  Sympathy cards are some of the most difficult to make but this shows they can still be elegant and beautiful.  Well done.
