It's the first of July which means it's our first Birthday.................and to celebrate we have a little competition for you with extra prizes to be won, so please read down to see what you need to do.
First this months theme which is:
***********Flower Power************
So as with last month you can do pretty much what you fancy so long as we can see a flower on to somewhere - even if it's not the stamp itself, there are so many pretty floral punches and ready made flowers available and we all love flowers. The only other requirement is of course that you must use a Black stamp or Stickeroo as the main element.
So for our Birthday celebration we have a little quiz for you and a couple of extra Birthday prizes from the lovely guys at
Sir Stampalot:
A collection of Stickeroos and cutie Transported Teddy wood mounted stamp. Sir Stampalot have a fabulous display of stamps from all the leading manufacturers in their Peterborough shop along with all things crafty to feed your addiction. And they have a super efficient on line store as well.
To be in with a chance of winning please mail my teamie Tracy who is holding the fort whilst I am away on my holibobs.........
ThmpsnTrac@aol.com with your answers to these two questions and all the correct ones will go into the draw.
So here's your questions - it's not as bad as it sounds and quite simple really.......the answers are much closer than you realise if you take a moment to follow one or more of the links to our sponsors.......................
1) How many 'T for Transparent' sets do Penny Black have ?
