123 Challenge...

Time for us to....

TAKE A BREAK!!!

Yep! Karlene and I have been running the 123 Challenge since December 2006.... boy it's been a journey! We've had NO time off, so thought it was time.... it's been really busy for both of us and it's hard for us to keep up with the blog and keeping on top of things - so we need a breather!

Winners for October and November will be up soon! Sorry for the delay!

Please let us know if your layouts are not up in the galleries!

Thanks!

Love Charmane & Karlene

PS THANKS so much to all of you that support 123 Challenge - the Contributors, the Website Owners who donate & of course our wonderful 123 Creative Team! We LOVE you all!!! XOXO

November 123 Challenge is....

OK.... I had a brainwave - as most of you MAY know I am on the Creative Team at Stuck?! Sketches

Sara and I are friends and thought why not run it by her and she said YES :)

I thought why not mix it up a bit this month - and give even MORE chance of winning {6 PRIZES UP FOR GRABS!!} why don't we combine a Stuck Sketch with the 123 Challenge....

SOOOO..... the criterias are:

1. Use a November Stuck?! Sketch {there are two - one uploaded on the 1st, one uploaded on the 15th}

2. Use a baby/pregnancy photo {seeing as Sara and myself just have had bubs!}

3. Use a diecut on your layout {thanks Kylie Howland}

YOU MUST EMAIL US YOUR LAYOUTS AT: challenge_123@hotmail.com

& MAKE SURE YOU JOIN AND UPLOAD YOUR LAYOUTS TO STUCK SKETCHES TOO!!!

Visit Stuck?! Sketches

THIS MONTHS SPONSORS ARE:

AND SOME DT INSPIRATION:

Mandy Dodd representing Scrap Therapy...

 

Linda Eggleton representing Scrapbook N Bits....

PLEASE donate....

there's still time! I have set up my own homepage and I need some MORE donations to reach my fundraising goal....

so please donate HERE even if it's a little - every bit counts!

As some of you know, someone VERY close to us is currently going through chemo for Breast Cancer.... and I feel so helpless and don't really know how I can help at all, so this is my way of trying to do something - by helping with raising money to find a cure.... because I know that there is a high risk of my girls maybe getting it....

I have joined forces with fellow DT Members Skye and Felicity - and these girls have done really well - Skye is teaching a class on Thursday to raise funds.... if you are interested please take a look HERE

THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!
